I'm not there yet, but have been doing a lot of research for my own future TV home.
Take a look online at a plant called: Sedum Hybrid 'Florida Friendly Gold'.
It has a lot of good features, but can't be walked on.

I love the way creeping fig looks (creeping wire vine looks pretty too) but my research tells me that both can spread aggressively underground to over 14x14 feet if they're happy in the location. That may be more maintenance than you want to apply.

Keep us posted as to what you choose, I'd love to know!
Here's to a happy adventure!
