Help with curb appeal

11 years ago

What can I do to help with curb appeal? I'd like to change the landscaping, paint the trim (maybe a two-toned so trim is one color, garage door another), and eliminate the part where the landscaping makes it hard to walk to the front door (especially if a car is parked there. Help!

Cute house that already has curb appeal, I think.

I like your trim and would not go two tone. I might paint all trim & garage whiter to match the windows.

The landscaping looks good too. I'd cut the hedge down to 12 inches and see if that improved the front area.

It's expensive to rip out cement and the walkway and driveway U have look in good condition.

Trim the hedges and plant some flowers.
