Whether you’re trying to sell your Boston area home or just want to make a great impression on neighbors, family, and friends, increasing your curb appeal is a must. When approaching a home for the first time, the front yard is one of the most noticeable aspects of the property, so make sure it not only looks neat and tidy, but also has some personality and style.
Better Homes & Gardens has some great ideas for increasing the curb appeal of your home. Take a look at some of the suggestions, below.
- Flowers add a welcome dose of color to any yard, so choose some bright blooms to liven up your space. Hardscaping features like a raised flower bed or retaining wall can help show off your plantings to their best effect.
- Make your walkway inviting. Forget boring cement; pavers, exposed aggregate, or stamped concrete are all much more visually interesting and elegant. They can even be designed to coordinate with the architectural style of your home.
- Take control of a sloped yard. While a steeply sloped yard may seem challenging to maintain, you can transform that slope into a beautiful focal point by adding block retaining walls and planting ground covers and other low growing plants.
- A new driveway will give your home a whole new look. While you may not pay that much attention to your driveway, an elegant paver driveway will make quite an impression on visitors to your home. We can also use exposed aggregate or stamped concrete to add a touch of sophistication to your driveway.
