I’d add a large planter in that niche.

No direct sunlight ever.

Does anyone have something similar that maybe able to add pictures?

@Angela Taylor Will you add pictures of the entire porch please? A view from the street & from halfway to porch will give context. The one closeup of a piece of porch gives no clues about the overall look of porch.

@Angela Taylor - thanks for the extra detail in pictures - big help. I don’t know your geographic location but guessing warm climate. My thought is to place colorful pots of different kinds of Sansevieria plants into the rock that’s there. Sansevieria plants require very little light or water & if your winters are mild you can leave them out year round. I would scatter the pots randomly & use different sizes & maybe add colorful ceramic pieces like birds. Here’s a link sansevieria or just Google. They need proper planting mix so check that out too. How about painting your front door an accent color & maybe the bench too. Question - is that bench a bit too large for space & maybe a chair would fit better? Last suggestion is to fill the two bare areas in front of the rock wall. Either fillthe pot with colorful plants or plant a small colorful or summer flowering shrub like Potentilla there. The front bare spot maybe plant a succulent ground cover. There are many - Angelina is a great one - low water, easy to clip off to keep low & contained to space. Here's a link to that Angelina succulent

@Angela Taylor Just had another idea looking at your house - the porch support post that is turned in a colonial style doesn’t tie into the style of your house - how about wrapping the post with cedar to make it square & beefier & paint it the same color as it is now to match trim.

Thank you to everyone all great ideas especially @KW hadn't even thought about that post!
