Just another opinion...I like the suggestion that others posted to remove the bush and if possible, to put entry door in it's place, to remove the post and replace it with a support beam and brackets, replace garage door, add low wall to separate your driveway from the neighbor's, plant a dwarf tree in the front yard along with some edging plants... But with so many possibilities to choose from, perhaps you could accomplish your desire to make your home stand out from the others inexpensively by...painting over the white part of the house, the downspout directly above the canopy and the garage door to match the lightest brick color. Choose the darkest brick color for all of the other trim and windows. Patch and seal the driveway to freshen it (until you know if you will be permitted to do anything more permanent), definitely taking out the bush and doing some low cost planting just to add some color. It takes time to settle on your needs, style, budget, etc. But it's worthwhile to spend a little cash and effort to get a bit of satisfaction that things are looking better!

Thanks for your comments guys. Regarding greenery, there is a semi circle of grass right at the front of the house, but I think some small potted trees/plants would look lovely near the porch area. Have checked with Dyebrick and they do not recommend their tint be used for driveways. Is anyone aware of other products that can be used to paint paving? Obviously more economical than re-paving altogether. The houses next door are generally white with black fascia and tiles. So we would prefer to keep in line with this. I think painting the whole house grey might make it look a bit cold or clinical.

Hi Heather, If it were me I would keep it all white, clean, modern / contemporary. Rather than clad in PVC check the woodwork and make any repairs as necessary then paint it white. Paint the eaves & facia board at the top white as well + new white guttering / down pipe. As PWJ says, check if planning is required. If you had some budget left consider plantation shutter to each room (inside) This is an interior feature that will add to the look of all rooms but what I always find is that it also adds to the external look of the house... Hope that helps, Martin www.angel-martin.com www.3dinteriorillustration.co.uk
