Outdoor Home Trends That May Gain Steam in 2021

Homeowners are enjoying their property’s outdoor space more during the pandemic, and house hunters are paying particular attention to outdoor features as they evaluate homes to purchase. Below are some predicted top trends for outdoor space in 2021.

1. Social front yards.

You can still bond with neighbors while observing social distancing guidelines. Maximizing the front porch or front yard, where you can communicate with neighbors from a distance, likely will become an even bigger trend next year.

2. Enhancing seasonal views.

Outdoor views are increasingly important as people spend more time at home. Leafless trees don’t make for an inviting view, even in the winter. Expect homeowners to pay greater attention to their seasonal views, creating focal points outside the window that combine evergreens, perennials, and ornamental grasses.

3. Gardening spots.

Homeowners are turning to gardening as a therapeutic pastime. Even in small areas, vertical outdoor gardens can not only serve as a great hobby but also as a statement piece. Veggies, fruit, and herb gardens are in high demand. Raised garden beds and potted herbs will continue to trend in 2021.

4. Seamless indoor and outdoor spaces.

Emphasizing a natural flow between the indoors and outdoors likely will continue to drive renovation concepts in 2021. This could include installing large sliding or folding glass doors, drop-down screens on the porch, outdoor heating lamps, and outdoor fire pits. This will help homeowners enjoy their outdoor spaces more anytime of the year.
