Help modernizing a mid century house?

Hi!

How would you modernize this mid century (early 1970s) house? My ideal would be a toned down, modest version of atomic ranch.

These are photos of the exterior -- the door is recessed. I would probably change the landscaping, door, and house numbers. Possibly even the brick and trim colors? Probably change the garage door as well. The entrance I would love to put some kind of extended cover on with rocks and desert plants bordering the right side of the entrance. Probably take out some of the various small bushes and replace them with larger aloe plants. The actual layout of the house is "W" shaped (see very last pic)




Photos of the interior also down below.

How would you describe the interior of this house? What could I do to make it more in-line with "atomic ranch" on the inside and a bit more modern or mid century modern?


While I am aiming for a toned down version of atomic ranch, I do not want to make this house look terrible in the process of trying to update it and any advice would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
