Does anyone have any advice/ideas to improve the appearance of my house exterior. I like the house overall, apart from the brown brick. We're part of an estate, so we can't do anything too drastic.
Looking like a very tidy home... I like the black on brick and its lovely to have a difference in texture that the brick offers, rather than all render which would not be as appealing I feel.....What about considering painting the window sill on the ground level black, this will blend nicely with the sliding doors.. The eye is not drawn to it either...
Then you might want to add some plants in large pots... 2 square metal planters with something nice in could be lovely either side of the sliding doors.. possibly two pots under the window too... They work in a variety of settings not just period homes.. Have a look at these ideas.. : ))
A line along the aggregate could be lovely... 2 more either side of the sliding doors and two under the window... Lovely and easy!
2 either side of the front door down the side... (if less light they could be artificial there)
You could change the drive to a resin which would look more expensive than the concrete. I agree about pots to both soften the look and to mark the entrance. Have you considered changing the sliding door for something more formal?
Thank you for the advice. Appreciate it. We only bought the house recently, so we're planning on putting in a composite door. I love black doors, but haven't made a decision on this yet.
