I live in Ireland and have never visited a house where the front door doesn't open into a hallway

I also live in Ireland. There's a 40 year old housing estate in a dublin suburb near me with about 400 houses where the front door opens directly onto the sitting room.

When I was a teen I knew 30 kids in that estate.

250-300 of them have added a porch as a small extension. It made such a difference to the liveability of the houses.
