Id make the whole patch of grass between the house and the sidewalk one big garden using native plants. Place different colored bricks on each side of the sidewalk to make it wider,

I don't think I'd "landscape" down the hill, although if it's hard to maintain a lawn there with the shade et al, you could draw a line and fill in the rest with myrtle or something else that looks after itself.

My front yard is what sets the tone for my whole home. To maintain its look, I use some tips. If you want to enhance your property’s curb appeal, here I am sharing some smart ideas for creating magical landscapes and inviting entries.

Go for the proverbial white picket as a way to add personality to your garden and yard. Plant some floral favorites like pink roses and sage catmint for a display that will make people stop and stare.

Hang a greenery garland. The addition of this garland of greenery wrapping along the front porch blends the yard and house into one cohesive concept.

Grow hydrangea bushes. Nothing spruces up a front yard better than some beautiful hydrangea bushes.

Add a stone edge and mulch to pretty up direct flower beds in a snap.

Once you have followed these tips, you will enhance your front landscape’s look, ultimately increasing the curb appeal of your property.

Maybe a taller holly (steeds) at the near corner of the house to define the corner.

also, ideas for deck paint color and new shutter color? The shutters blend too much I think. i Also want to change the light fixture to black.

Hydrangeas are my fav! Maybe hydrangea In back and a small boxwood in front, for year round plantings.
