Boring brick ranch needs a curb appeal boost
Comments (21)Yes. I've saved all the suggestion pictures. My husband and I are going to sit down and try to draw out what we are thinking for the landscaping (location, colors, etc). I'd like to lay it out so that it's ready for the addition of the walkway. We aren't going to be able to replace the front door at the moment. Is paint a terrible idea for a short-term upgrade? If paint is an option, what are your thoughts on paint color for the door? And the shutters....I'm not 100% sold on removing them (we are in south Ga so the shutters keep the southern feel). If we keep shutters, do you have a suggestion on color? I want the front of the house to really pop....See MoreCurb appeal boost in Zone 5
Comments (7)As well as the climate you need to consider that your patch appears to be very shady and the area under the conifer will be even darker, as well as dry. Choose plants which will cope with those conditions. Sadly a riot of colour is likely to be a challenge....See MoreNeed help with ideas for painting/curb appeal ideas for our house
Comments (6)I love the current green, and the yellow front door! The uniformity of the green allows the garage car-doors and people-door to blend in. I'd remove the fence unless it is serving a purpose (which I don't see). For safety, ensure the visibility of your house numbers from the street. Is there anything you'd like to add out front, such as a sitting space, a cover or a bench near either door? (I don't see the need for anything, it's just what functionality you would like.) For landscaping suggestions, re-post your picture, include your planting zone, the direction your house faces (East?), and a nearby major city so that people can make practical recommendations, and hope that a professional gives you a pretty picture to go by :-) Nice house!...See MoreWhat colour should we paint front door?

Comments (4)I like yellow. Some of the bushes need to come down in height. They look like yews, which respond well to a hard pruning. You could add some variety in plant material, texture and color....See Moregtcircus
