    Taking all suggestions to breathe new life into this house!

    I'd get a good looking lawn laid/ build a nice looking walkway and front step and remove the blue furniture. A low shrub border along the front will help, too,

    What problems are you trying to solve? Is it a rental? You appear to be parking on the grass, do you need an additional parking pad or circular driveway? Other than a new front door (yellow?) you need hardscaping and landscaping. Probably worth paying to get a proper plan done even if you implement it yourself over time. Hard for us to guess based on one photograph and no idea where you are (palm trees are great in some areas, not so much others)

    The house is fine. You need a step that is the same height as the door. You need some landscaping. Building a little patio for your chairs, some foundation shrubs and planting something on either side of the paty would do some way.

    Do you want a remodel? Otherwise here are some simple ideas.

    Paint the garage door the same as the siding and the house will appear wider.

    I added your blue from the chairs for trim, and a deck to place the chairs on and can be sized to fit.

    A black modern downlight fixture. Beach grass along the house.

    We live by the beach, I need new landscaping and a new sprinkler system. Some jerk stole our timer. Since the house is a 1950s cinder block home it could get some modern love. Any and all suggestions to give it a nice tropical vibe would be great!

    Old orchard beach Maine? Palm beach? Some general idea of where you are helps with suggestions. As would more photos.

    Don’t forget that there are many beaches with beach homes in the PNW too! My question was - which ocean is this home facing?

    Do you have a large budget for an overhaul? Or mostly just some minor tweaks?

    Hey, the North Coast has beaches too!

    Sigred that was right up my alley! Tracefloyd that certainly looks a lot better! I was thinking a porch of some sort would help! Boy some landscaping looks better too!

    Littlemissdena it depends on the outcome. I don’t want to spend a heap when I also have to renovate the the inside and backyard. Trying to find the best out comes to kind of spread around the pot

    I like this look, the house is in Daytona I don’t believe I’ve seen beach grass on any lawns here but I like it!
