The answer is B: As an Adverbial Prase.   A Prepositional Phrase includes a preposition, its object and its modifiers. The Prepositional Phrases can function as adverbial phrases or adjective phrases to modify other words in the sentence.

Answer:

The underlined prepositional phrase "to the front door" is used in the sentence as an adverbial phrase

Explanation:

This example is following one of the structures to make an adverbial phrase, which starts with a preposition (in this case "to") the phrase together can be considered an adverb of place, the other three options are not correct because they require different elements in the structure to be considered that kind of phrase.
