DescriptionOutside view of a covered porch. The structure has shingled siding and appears to be open on one side. There is a wide window on the side facing the camera, covered by a shingled awning. A chimney rises from the roof, above the window. There is a tall tree to the left of the porch. Its branches partially obscure the view of the rest of the house.
