I vote pavers.... It seems like you walk right out your doors to the ground so I would go with pavers.
Your deck would have to be really, really low to the ground, no?

We had an old deck and just ripped it up last year and put down pavers and it is so much better. I dont worry about splinters and the kids can ride their bikes and cars on it. IMO pavers are so much nicer looking than a deck.

paver patios in some towns does not add to your taxes

I voted pavers - but i dont think a deck would look bad. You could even do both - a deck off the house and than a paver area off it.

Paver patio for sure
Creatures can get under a deck. Wood starts to rot. And less privacy when you elevate yourself on a deck. Decks raise taxes. So no deck!
Congrats btw!!!
