Question, do the window on the left line up with the bottom of the door? in other words could you run it cross the front?

I can 't see it. Either a porch runs into your window and garage, or a portico awkwardly intersects with your roof. Maybe you could do a pergola over the garage door and/or a trellis to the left of the front door. You really seem to not like this house. Some paint might do wonders.

A pergola on each side in a cedar like this below might help. So would painting all the trim a sage green instead of the bright green. Your fencing doesn't really work. It would be better to have a coherent landscaping plan for the left side of the house.

Feels like I painted your house one other time, but maybe the fancy garage door and pergola will be more appealing...

I also agree that painting would be my first step and then landscape. people over look the wonders good landscape plan can add. I love ACM's garage door!

RL, the bottom of that window lands one siding piece higher than the top of the door.

ACM, I'm just trying to find a way to break up that front facade. But it's true that my favorite part of the house is the location :) I'm still struggling with paint choices - either just painting the trim on the corners of the house and around the garage door, or painting everything a near white

Love the pergola idea! Yes, that wooden fencing will go and I'll focus on landscaping once I'm able. Thanks

So what if you did a large deck that step out and down what about navy for the house color?

Add lanterns to each side.

You got a lot of input when you posted this before. Did none of them work for you?

You’re right, I did get good feedback last time on colors. Right now I’m trying to think about possible structural additions.

Think about professional landscaping with shrubs and plantings that will pull the eye forward on the left side of the unfortunately designed house. I just checked your house on Zillow and see that you have a nice front tree, which is great. Consider continuing the kind of wood fencing your neighbor has, which would "enclose" the left side. A semi-private front garden with a mix of evergreens, shrubs, and hardscaping would soften your façade. Go to a small garden center which can help you come up with a design plan.

I would go with wider steps and portico, some kind of

Thanks for this. How did you make this picture? I like this idea a lot but want to play around with it a bit

I use Photoshop.

^^^ thats the porch i was trying to convey but maybe have a seating area in front of that window.

Adding a new light over the garage door and adding one to each side of the door would be nice too.

all these comments without a single use of the word "remuddle"?!? :)

Thank you, these are some great thoughts!

Celerygirl, love your rendition, sure makes this house much more appealing to the eye!

I agree!
