How far away from the home will the landscape lighting need to be?

The lights don’t need to be more than several feet away from your home. If you need a larger area illuminated, you’ll need bulbs with high lumens. For example these larger areas could be a backyard or driveway and require a widespread light instead. A small area like a porch will only need lower lumens.
