Curb Appeal help required

10 years ago

I am new to this site and am a bit overwhelmed looking for options. I have a very small front porch and want to make it look warm and inviting. I was thinking of changing the door color and possibly adding a wicker chair and some plant stands however I likely would not use the chair it would just be for decor only.

Any advice on door colors and other features I can add. The lighting around the home is all recessed pot lighting.

Also if I paint the front door what are the rules on what I should do with garage door.

Do you know what gardening zone you live in? I would add some low shrubs along the other walkway. You have a lot going on there, what is your budget?

I'm not sure we have gardening zones here but I would prefer to stay away from gardening as I don't have a lot of time to commit to it. My thumb is not so green...

I would do a dark red door to match the accent trim color you already have. And if you would never use a rocker, how about one of those multi planter sculptures for the porch? Maybe even a DIY from an old palette? Potted plants are easy to maintain and a great way to add color

The different textures look busy ; what effect would you like? Is there a color or texture that speaks to you?

Referring to this as a porch is rather stretching the meaning of the word. There is only room for one chair, and I'm not sure anyone wants to sit on a porch alone. I have made some adjustments to the exterior material and then added a hanging floral basket and one rocking chair.
