Thank you for the compliment. Building costs vary widely based on geography and materials chosen. We did the portico when we built the house so we did not isolate it as a separate project. We occasionally add porticos to houses when we do renovation projects and the costs start at around $7,500 and go up from there. Good luck with your project! Kyle

This is a beautiful entrance! May I ask the manufacturer of the exterior light fixture in this photo?

Brown can be a difficult color to pull off on doors and shutters. Can you tell me what color you used here?
