Looking for suggestions to increase curb appeal.
Comments (9)Your plantings could stand a general update, better coordinating with architectural features. (The picture is not conducive to giving you good feedback on it.) I would ditch the rocks. Bed needs expanding. Most of all, the path to the door must be enhanced in order to actually invite to the door. (At the present it looks strictly utilitarian.) Given that the entrance is not prominent, it would be useful to expand the paving, using something decorative if possible, near the entrance. I'm guessing you could stand some small trees off of the house corners but, again, these are areas that don't show in the photo....See MoreImproving Curb Appeal - What would you do to improve curb appeal?
Comments (15)Shutters should appear to be operable, so they would need to be as wide as the window... so if closed, they would cover the window. So no shutters on your house.

Comments (22)I think the front door was done in glass to bring in more light. The old house had a living then dining right after the front door then a sun room. The sun room was then converted to a room and a new sun room added. So there are basically three spaces with no outside windows except to the back -on one side is the kitchen and one added bedroom and on the other side two older bedrooms.....See MoreAny suggestions on curb appeal on the exterior of our home?
Comments (18)I like your house as is, I think it has a nice understated look. The only thing I would do is perhaps paint the front door in another color & get professuional help for the landscaping . I think a landscape designer could really enhance your otherwise very nice home. Something else, I notice people often overlook the value & beauty of exterior lanscape lighting. i wouldn’t spend the $ to change the garage doors, I see no reason to make them a focal point, they’re fine....See MoreCristy Rodriguez Fregoso
