porch help

I am new at this and was wanting to make a raised porch with stairs leading up to it. Can someone explain to me how to make this porch with the columns, roof, etc.  Thank you!

HI - Welcome to the Forum!

I love the house style by the way!  This porch should be quite simple just by drawing the roof 'By Picking Points' and change the hip end to Gable of course.  Do the ceiling and floor the same way (By Picking Points). Use the Columns for the posts or use try the "Interior Decorative Columns" in Intereior Accessories - if the style suits.  Interior Accessories also has a Decorative Beam that you could use for the upper beam across the porch (right click Elevate it to the height). The program has several ballustrates that may be suitable.  You may have to Elevate them to the right level.

Hope that gets you started.
