Need some major curb appeal help!

Moved here a few years ago--making the best of small changes because there are so many big (read: expensive!) ones to make! (one being eventually get rid of the red trim on the windows). We are getting estimates on getting the house powerwashed this spring.


Our large bushes took a huge beating this winter after an ice avalanche and look worse for wear. We've tried to improve this space a few times but don't have a huge vision. Our only idea is to put one or two cypress trees (zone 7, NY) flanking each side of the window--but not sure what to do in between.


The boxwood was starting to look nice and fill out but lost some large branches so now is doing nothing to hide the ugly wall behind it. We also kind of like the rhody --its super hardy, looks great when it blossoms and hides the AC unit behind.


I would also love to put a trellis all the way on the left near the arch and then do some type of flowering vine; however that area is full shade so not sure that plant would work there.





Any advice?
