HGTV Dream Home 2007 is surrounded by lush mountain beauty and located at the base of some of the most popular trails in Winter Park, Colo.

The beauty of the lush property surrounding HGTV Dream Home didn't intimidate designer Linda Woodrum when it came to decorating the home's covered front porch and back patio. "I kept it very simple outside," she says. "Because there's no way to compete with the kind of beauty nature provides here."

The great outdoors that surround this amazing Colorado home form the perfect backdrop for al fresco living.

A pair of elegant, yet simple, matching metal glider benches face one another on the front porch. Each glider bench provides an unobstructed view of the pine-rich landscape beyond. Forest green throw pillows add color and interest, and a small end table made from recycled pine can double as another seat if necessary.
