Im guessing the port coche is the part of the house over the driveway. If it is, I dont really like it. I prefer sunny front yards and shaded back yards for some reason.

Here's some nicer port cochere (I misspelled it in earlier posts) Notice that these are all in scale with the house and are not competing for attention, unlike the one in the house for sale in the other post.
"1.a covered carriage entrance leading into a courtyard. 2.a porch at the door of a building for sheltering persons entering and leaving carriages.
Also, porte-co·chère.
[Origin: 1690–1700; < F: gate for coaches] "
Actually, they are carriage ports....I don't see any horses patooties or carriages in that photo!
