Make It Visually Appealing
It’s worth turning your attention to all the decorative (and fun) elements of the space at the front of your property; this is
especially important if you;re wanting to sell now or further down the line. There will always be potential buyers who walk or
drive past, and your house exterior is the first impression they’ll have. Whether you’re into garden gnomes or not; a front
lawn or paved area is a great space to add interest and design features. It’s worth investing in as much greenery and
foliage as possible; unless you have the time and inclination to look after hanging baskets, you’ll need to choose low-
maintenance shrubs and evergreen plants. Heading to your local garden center is your best option if you don’t have a green
thumb; they’ll be able to point you in the direction of beautiful pot plants and bedding shrubs that can pretty much look after
themselves and will immediately give your home a facelift.

Make sure that fences or walls are given a fresh coat of paint or wood stain; there’s nothing less appealing or welcoming than a
tired old picket fence, so spend a weekend given it a spruce. Fix and oil any hinges on gates, and trim and neaten hedges;
sometimes it just takes the little things to make make a vast difference to an environment, so it’s well worth the effort.

Ensure You Focus On Function
The function of the front of your house might not be the first thing that springs to might when you’re thinking about ways to
improve its exterior. However, it’s often the things that you ensure are enriching its functionality that become extremely
attractive aspects, both to you and any potential buyers. Therefore, it’s time to think about how you can improve what that
space is used for.

You can start with your driveway; you’ll want it to be a smooth surface that leads up to your front door or garage so that it’s safe, neat, and gives both functional and aesthetic appeal. Investing in new paving or steps to your front door is also a great idea; everyone who visits your home will want a pleasant and simple way to reach your door, so make sure there are adequate and attractive areas to do so.
