The exterior of your home is the first impression that buyers will get. Whether you’re thinking of renovating your current home of you’ve purchased a property that needs an exterior update, we’re here to help. Here are four steps to help refresh your home’s exterior:
Starting Again:

A New Doorway:
Giving a refresh to your front entryway can add to your aesthetic. A Douglas fir door with five glass panels creates an on-trend arrival moment, with the added bonus of filling the foyer with daylight. A lush array of new plantings softens the entrance: Japanese red maples, winter gem boxwoods, and carex grasses, plus Manhattan euonymus hedges in faux-concrete pots from West Elm that flank the door.
Dine Out:
Placing a faux-concrete outdoor dining table from World Market on the patio created an instant hangout spot for all seasons. Add some amazing fixtures to create a fun outdoor experience.
