I would paint the house in a lighter, warmer color, and would do a decorative, stamped concrete treatment on the ground.

Thanks for sharing the picture of the house for reference and your suggestions. These were indeed helpful. I never thought about changing the colour scheme of the exterior, this will indeed make the area around the front of the house more welcoming. Initially, I thought about adding brick veneer (dark in colour) to match the exterior colour.

Apart from this, I noticed that the paving stone which have in front of garage is leveled with the rest of the floor, however, in my case I wish to lay the paving stone/bricks on top of the concrete floor. I found some 1 to 1.25 inches pavers which can do the job well. But I am not sure at this point, whether I should use the cement/mortar to attach the pavers on top of concrete floor, or just lay directly without any gluing material. I see that some people have used sand as base but I dont understand the purpose of sand over the concrete base. If I use just the polymeric sand over the pavers (and to keep the water seeping between the pavers) and then glue the bordering pavers so that it will keep the pavers in place. Will this work?
