Default Village Front Porch

I have always had special memories of our front porch. As kids we spent hours playing games on the front porch. Many evenings Mom and Dad would sit on the porch and neighbors would stop by and have a smoke (seemed most everybody smoked) or refreshments---it was just "good times" for all. Our neighborhood Villa here in TV was similar but not quite the same. I would like to see more homes with front porches. I'm not aware of any designer models with true front porches?? We like our lanai for privacy but a front porch would be nice too. Sometimes you see people sitting out front, in or near their garage, as an option for a front porch. Just wondering if others had any memories of a front porch.
