Comments (1)If you're looking for help with foundation planting, the picture is too fuzzy, from too far away and doesn't include enough space surrounding the house (beyond the side lot lines.) If you don't get the help you're looking for, you might return when you can add some better pictures....See MoreAdvice on adding curb appeal to home
Comments (22)The dark looks nice, but in a hot climate, I wouldn't go so dark. Also, your siding is rough cedar, which actually makes the paint adhere better. "1) Beveled cedar siding. The most common type of siding used on homes constructed prior to the 1990’s. While this material is still in use, it has been widely replaced with Hardie Board siding. You can expect to pay a bit more to paint your house if you have rough-cut cedar siding. The roughness of this surface is what makes it a durable product as it holds on lots of paint and also cools down faster. Back-rolling or back-brushing is an absolute must with this type of siding. Paint must be pushed into the texture to ensure a strong bond."...See MoreNeed some curb appeal help for our mountain house!!!
Comments (13)i agree with most comments especially on how to treat the doors. Imagine looking at the picture you showed us & the ski door is same color as house - it’s gone! I like your idea of adding lighting to entry especially around the front door not storage door. If you want to add interest to that side wall with no symmetry maybe think about adding a locally interesting wall ornament that’s weather proof. Iron art? Snowboarder? Per @Olychick comments,be sure to hang it above the snow line!...See Morealigal266
