Designing Your Dream Master Patio: 4 Smart Tips
Current homeowners gravitate toward homes that focus on outdoor living. With biophilic design in the forefront of home design trends, floor-to-ceiling windows are as popular as ever and oversized patios with plenty of room for house plants and landscaping are also attractive to home buyers.
Many of our gorgeous home plans offer private backyard patio access to master bedroom suites, but we have recently seen an increase in homeowners requesting floor plans and designs that include a master patio.
A private master balcony is great, but a master suite that includes a peaceful, secluded patio could be the ticket to getting maximum enjoyment from your home’s outdoor living space.
Here are 5 of our favorite tips for designing your dream master patio for your master bedroom suite.
FRENCH DOORS, NATURAL LIGHT, AND FLOOR-TO-CEILING WINDOWS
Think about how you’ll spend time in your bedroom and how you’ll use your master patio. If you have a gorgeous backyard with flawless landscaping and dazzling plant life, a master patio overlooking this backdrop is ideal.
Design your master bedroom entryway to feature sliding glass doors, floor-to-ceiling windows, or glass French doors. Glass paneled window treatments look elegant and flood the space with available natural light.
French doors also automatically increase the value of your home so this is a smart place to allocate a few extra dollars from your new construction or remodel budget. The right window and door treatments in your master bedroom suite will make your home the envy of any visitor, and this luxury suite will be a terrific selling point for the custom home you’re designing.
COVERED PATIOS FOR THE WIN
A covered master patio makes a great place to sit and enjoy a book during a rainstorm.
If you have pet dogs that sleep in the master bedroom, having a covered patio is an effortlessly convenient way to let them out each morning so you can quickly start getting ready for work or school. A covered patio makes a great place for your pet to grab some shade.
You can keep a water dish for your furry friends in this area. You can even add an outdoor puppy bed and a basket of toys.

Add a comfortable outdoor chaise lounge or a hammock and make this space your personal de-stress haven.
