Curb Appeal

Curb Appeal is so important to a house. It is the first thing people see when visiting and first impressions are very important.  The city is adding a sidewalk to our front yard in the next few weeks and then we are planning major front yard landscaping. 

Take a look at the before and after of a house with new front yard landscaping via House Beautiful.

Before:

A new front door is always a step in the right direction:

After:

It is amazing what plants and a little thought can do.  The best plan is to visit your local nursery or a local college with a landscape program and get their help for a long term plan.  No one can afford to do everything at once.  So do a little bit at a time and after the plants mature a bit you will have a front yard that welcomes guests and really shows your personality!!
