Comments (18)It just needs some character. I would paint it a nice nautical blue, white trim and an inviting sunshine yellow front door. I'm curious about that item next to the sign in front. Is that a pipe that goes into the house? I'm a vacation rental property manager (16 yrs., including Brigantine, NJ) and I don't think your home has rental appeal right now. First, I hang clothes out to dry and have no dryer, but vacationers aren't used to that. Remove the drying contraption and install a good W/D set. The place is hemmed in by all the asphalt! I see some of it leads to another building. Is that a separate property or just storage associated with the house? Can any of the asphalt be removed or replaced/covered with pea gravel, crushed shells or other material that is more "beachy?" All of the patio/walk material around the house is far from adequate, interesting or inviting. Again, replace with more appealing and beach-appropriate materials. Change the storm doors for solid pane ones. On the side facing the ocean, find a way to open a door onto a new balcony/deck that will also provide cover for the lower area. Not knowing the interior layout, I'm guessing, but the three windows could be changed to a triple French door, slider or retracting/stacking glass panels (your budget may be a concern here.) In front where people park just put a pergola all across. I suggest you watch the Netflix series titled "Stay Here." It is chock full of ideas, DIY and marketing tips that will help you if this is your first rental venture. Pergola to emphasize your entry Deck idea for ocean side....See MorePlease help!

Comments (2)Please don’t paint the cabinets!! They look gorgeous and modern. We are building and I chose espresso cabinets and white quartz counters. Contrast makes a house look nice IMO....See Moreshirlpp
