You can place one taller shrub on the corner near the fence, but you will want very low evergreens for the front portion so you don't cover the railings. I would look for a shrub that will just reach the bottom of the white rail. Plant a decorative small tree further out in the yard. Decide on the fence long the front before winter and remove that rock along the walkway leading to the steps - it will be a mess when you start shoveling snow.

Lovely house!

I would do perennials along the porch. Look for an ornamental tree or two for the yard.
