I previously posted this on House Chat and got one response. Betting I can do better than that on Breaktime.
My wife and I are going to be building a home resembling a simple old farm house. We’d like to put a deck off of the dining area on one side of the home, but I can’t picture how to do one which looks appropriate to the structure. We’re planning a porch across the front of the home, but I wonder if a wrap-around from the front to the side, rather than a deck, might look better and function as we want.
Earlier this year there was an article in This Old House magazine about decks on houses and they had one for a Victorian house, but this is more ornate than we are planning.
Suggestions?

Do you have any elevation drawings you can scan and post? It's very hard to tell you anything when all we really know is that it's a 'farm house'.
