I'd focus on landscaping. It looks like your lawn has quite a bit of slope. This article has landscaping ideas for sloped yards. I particularly like #5 (natural hillside rock garden), #10 (four season hillside garden), #11, and #12.

It's already an attractive home...you didn't mention scope or
budget. I'd probably paint it a different color, something from the
stone, but not as high contrast with the roof.You can upload your pic
into paint company websites and try different paints see what looks good
to you.

If it were my home, I'd want to beef up/widen the walkway to the front
door. It looks a bit skimpy and I think it would look better if it were
wider where it meets the porch (and the rest of the way). I'd probably
widen the planting bed to eliminate that little patch of grass between
the walkway and the house.
You could probably widen it visually by planting along its length.

You're already on a great track for having some great curb appeal. I think making a low attractive bed with color along the walk would increase appeal. End with a small tree to create a focal point as well. You could definitely add some walk walkwayway lighting and maybe post lighting as well.

Think about adding a little pop by painting your fright door with a lighter, brighter color that will help lead the eye to the entrance,

fantastic!

Well, the bed on the right still needs to come all the way out to the path. And the overly pruned flat head shrubs need to go. The too small shutters should go also.

I totally agree with laceyvail 6A, WV. You should read about pruning crape myrtles. Giving it a flat top ruins it's graceful lines and it will eventually get ugly blobs on the ends if you always chop it off like that.

The paint color looks great, and the landscape and facade lighting is really effective.

As far as landscaping goes, the advice I gave two years ago still stands, other than that when I checked to see if the link was still good (it is), I realized I said I liked #5 when I really meant #6 ("A Natural Hillside Rock Garden"). I live in a drought-prone region where lawns are discouraged, so I might be a bit biased against grass.

Thanks all, I really appreciate the feedback. If we replaced shutters what do you suggest? Similar but wider or nothing? Would shutter dogs be too much? Thanks for advice on landscaping. Especially that front bed, I am considering some changes.

It’s lovely! If you replace the shutters, go with a wood door. Even though you have a nice, bright light, the door darkens the entry.

Remove the shutters and do not replace (your windows are nice by themselves); paint the door a lighter color; follow through with others landscaping suggestions.

You have a lovely house. Just came across this post.

Not sure if you're still looking to make landscaping changes. anyways. I took the liberty to explore a few options like New England Style, Rock Garden Style etc.

Wow. Thank you for the ideas and pictures!!!

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.

I agree with taking out the boxwood that have been butchered. If you take the bed all the way to the sidewalk, you need a pocket bed on the left side.

Yes to learn more about pruning the Crepe Myrtle. Ever heard of Crepe Murder? It's a thing. LOL Honestly you don't even have to prune them. We had several over 30ft tall at our last house, but you don't want one too tall right next to the house. Having lived in the South all my life, I don't have a problem with the grass since we get rain. No idea where you live, but the grass looks healthy. Unless you want to spend every weekend gardening, or hire a gardener, I would not go to the extreme of removing the grass.

If there room for a wooden bench on the front porch?

Thanks Allison for all of the comments. I am letting my grow a bit longer so why not the crepe myrtle? No more pruning. The shrub near the front three windows is a helleri holly and I had cut all the way down and it has grown back. The other large shrubs are Otto Luken Laurel and I have tried to shape them but I’ll let them grow out a bit. I live in Marietta, Georgia and yes lots of rain. We will probably replace the driveway soon and with that a new paver walk to front door. Again I appreciate the feedback as we consider updates.
