IMO the window on the left should not have shutters and so IMO since the only one is above the garage so maybe paint those and the garage door the dark color Then IMO some color in the landscaping even if it is just bigger planters by the garage door filled with seasonal plantings and maybe a new front door with more glass and maybe that in the dark color too BTW I always like a walkway from the street to the front door it is IMO am much more welcoming idea than only one from the driveway you can barely see.

Thanks Patricia! we just moved in two weeks ago, so the previous owner (bachelor) did didn’t do anything outside. Do you think it would look strange to remove the shutters on the left, and leave them on the side of the garage and front of the garage? (garage window by side door has shutter also)

we plan to update landscaping next spring I agree regarding color! Its rare to see sidewalks to street as we would need to shovel more in winter i think!

My husband is looking at doors, more glass too!
