You're not giving us much info here. Where do you park your vehicles?

I would recommend eliminating the railing on the porch since you don't need one for a 7" step. It's just not needed.

Maybe you'll want to create a circular driveway to the door

Plant as little grass as possible and then install perennials each year to add to your garden. They will come back every year and they increase their numbers without you having to do anything.

Plant a few light in scale lacey trees in front like River Birch.

I agree with the prior poster regarding adding perenials. My concern about the advice of "eliminating the railing on the porch" is that I tripped off one of those seemingly innocent decks and ended up with a sprained ankle and two weeks in a shoe boot. Some of us are a clumsy ox and wouldn't do well without the simple protections in life! Think about clumsy people, children, elderly, and disabled when designing (universal design). A user friendly and well designed earth is a great one! A recommendation I would give is to ditch the grass altogether and look into clover lawn covering, xeriscaping, or Japanese gardening.

Perennial landscaping with native plants is the way to go. Have a small garden center design front landscaping.

Since you need a railing for safety reasons, replace the one you have with this style:
