Improve kerb appeal of 1958 bungalow
Comments (20)A lovely sized bungalow! I think the problem here is that the scape seems to blend into one and there is no focal point. A coat of paint to the render would work wonders and I agree with the other comments to add in and change the current shrubbery. If you have chance to change the doors, I would suggest a colour other than brown, with so much roof space the brown is very overwhelming. I would also suggest some outside downlighting against the render. Good lighting can improve the look of any home. This doesn't have to be expensive either. Hope this helps and good luck...See MoreHow to improve kerb appeal
Comments (10)Just for the record I think this is a lovely looking mid century property and i feel it benefits from the shape of the chimney and the dormer window. Without them you'd have a featureless aspect! Even if you retain the white windows, (because that's a huge job), I would definitely change your front door to something that isn't PVC. White PVC doors date properties, but not in a charming way. If you have a hefty budget then horizontal wood cladding (or that faux wood porcelain stuff, that's already greyed) would elongate the walls and make it look wonderful. Might try a mock up on my old laptop....See MoreImprove curb appeal of my ugly duckling house
Comments (13)To get to picture 2 you would need to convert the garage and add a gable to bring it forward with the other and very doable to make it symmetrical. You also need to think about approach. Pic 1 it looks like very little space in from car to house whilst Pic 2 has a hedge in front, so working on hard and soft landscaping would help....See MoreHelp, what colour front door for improved curb appeal ??
Comments (20)Thank you Celerygirl and everyone else. I think I have made my decision now for now. Black !!! I am going to have the door frames, sidelights and door in Black and centralised, the brick work extended at the top of the frame and a roof light installed in the roof. Its exactly what I didn't think I wanted but what sits right with me. Many thanks for all of your help I will update you all with the result in November when we are due to carry out the work....See Moreal4n
