My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

front of house

9 years ago
last modified: 9 years ago

my house has 2 front doors. People think it is a duplex. We are wanting to sell this but want suggestions on how to make 1 entrance without the cost

    Paint the door and frame on the left the same color as the house. The paint shop can color match for you. Then make the path on the right more visible with fresh rocks & stepping stones.

    Hide the trash cans. Put a flower pot on each side of the staircase with pretty annual flowers. This will become the main entrance because of the handrails.

    Connect the two decks in front of each door so it creates one larger deck. Then only have stairs in front of one of the doors, so there becomes only one entry point, even though there are two doors.
