Exterior front light alternative

I have been struggling to find some lights for the front of my house and have begun thinking about alternatives.

1 idea I had was to put some downlights in the ceiling of the verandah, however, although the verandah will be finished when the house is it won't have a ceiling in it. Are there any other alternatives for exterior lighting at the front door.

I was originally going to have 1 light each side of the front door and 1 about a metre in from each end.

I think a light each side of the door would be a great feature rather than downlights. Something special

+1 for wall exterior wall lights. I think they will add to the character of the house.

+2, exterior, they would look good.

Well I suppose that solves that. Thanks all.

I don't think this one is too bad.

I think that suits your house nicely

+ for a wall light either side of the door. Outside of that lovely bigger block frame work around the door of course as you wouldn't want to break the effect of that.
