I wasn't going to say anything about the little balcony, but if your thinking of covering it now, then I'll speak up. I too thought it would look a little out of place without a treatment of some kind. I would add a trellis. Similar to this one.



It would be a nice addition that would add variety and character.  Then you still get a covered balcony that doesn't block your view entirely.
