Gorgeous!! Congratulations!!Well done!!

It's lovely. If I were going to nitpick, I'd say one shutter a piece on two of your 3 visible windows looks strange. I'm not a fan of geometric plants, so I would not prune the pink thing (Bougainvillia?) into an unnatural shape.

Other than that, gorgeous.

Stunning transformation!

Sigrid, thanks for the input. I had shutters on the one window without before the recent reno. I decided not to put them back up since that is the siding instead of stucco. And the two windows with only one shutter, I know is not ideal, but there isn't enough room between the window and the door. I felt it was a little plain without. The bougainvillea we have to constantly trim so it doesn't get any bigger. It is already very top heavy and is attached to the balcony with cables.

Looks very good. Love that you extended the roof over the balcony! Also like the color you have chosen.

Great transformation

That’s lovely! A very nice transformation and you chose a beautiful color.

Great landscaping, nice color.

Just wow!! Love it

What a great remodel! I too love the color.

Great transformation! re the shutters just do a window trim all the way around instead of the shutters

WOW! Looks fabulous!

I love how your gate mirror is the pattern in the wrought iron of the balconies. I would love to see a picture that shows your roof as well.

well done Robert, well done!

I also think the tree ….and hedge,also … are out of sync with your new look… too big ,too pruned.. too asymmetrical…and covering too much of your beautiful newly re-done home…

The hedge we need for privacy since we have a pool in the front yard. It was the only place we had room for a pool.

This shows a little bit of the new metal roof. Unfortunately the metal roof isn’t very visible standing close to the house. More visible from down the street though.

Gorgeous, love the green, and agree that the shutters up top should go. 🙂🍾

Thanks for posting a roof pic. My previous post should have said “gate mirror’s”. How did we survive before the oh-so-helpful Auto-correct?

Do you think it would be ok to eliminate the shutters on the second floor and keep the shutters on lower level?

Should I remove all the black shutters?

Yes…mainly because shutters should be in scale with the windows ..have some semblance of function……and shouldn’t be added just as a trim detail…the house is impressive…. without them

Love the private interior garden and pool area…still a little confused about the brick area outside the garden area?…does that go out to the street?is it the public sidewalk?parking?

The pics are from the street. The pavers outside the fence and hedge is off street parking. If I get my friend with a drone to take some pictures soon, I'll post them.

So remove all the shutters or just the two on the second floor?

All…and can’t wait to see pictures of a fuller view..

I think remove all shutters and put a wide wood trim around entire windows

Did anyone ask where you are located?…and are tiny lots normal in your city ….or is this a historic area?…i know I usually love any climates that support bougainvilleas that enthusiastically…used to travel to southern Florida every winter from Northern Ca.

I’m in South Florida. In the town of Ocean Ridge. Most of Ocean Ridge has 1/4 acre lots but I’m in a section of town with smaller lots. We love it here. It’s nice to be one block from the beach.

Of course…we used to spend winters in that area..all along the coast really …and I lived in Key West for a few years….being by the beach has it pluses and minuses, of course…but I love the areas like yours with a cool neighborly vibe…the real plus for you is if you ever move on …they will be beating down the door to buy your house!

Here's a pic without the black shutters.

Love it…maybe the best part is …how the surrounding greenery…gives the special kind of privacy..history….🥲makes me miss our winters in Florida

Thanks for the advice. I like it without the shutters!

Looked great before, but even better without the shutters!

I love the nicely shaped hedges. I think it frames the house nicely and goes well with the fence. For the bougainvillea (really like the pop of color it provides), maybe you could train it to grow along the balcony so that it's not a squared off as someone mentioned above?

The bougainvillea would definitely look better if extremely thinned …re-sculpted to an airier more open shape…with a delicate silhouette …

Lovely!!
