In the front page module youcan paste your own html code for the frontpage.
using panels you can assign blocks and page content to different regions on the content area.

Either the panels module and/or the front page module will get you most, if not all, of the way there.

Hello List,
I want to customize the front page of a new Drupal site. I want three columns in the front page other than the left and right side bars. Two of these columns should aggregate news from RSS feeds. The third column should contain the regular posts from page and story nodes promoted to the front page.
Below is the layout of the front page I want to achieve
Header
Left Sidebar| News 1| News 2| Page/Story nodes| | Right side bar
Footer
What are my options? Can I achieve this through configuring blocks and aggregator? Are there any modules that can do this? Do I need to write new PHP code?
I would appreciate any ideas, suggestions or pointers.
