Your home's curb appeal matters as it's the first impression that people will have of your property. In addition to making your property more aesthetically pleasing, a home with good curb appeal can also make a positive contribution to your property's market value.
While power washing your home and planting some new shrubs is one way to improve the exterior appearance of your property, there are several other home remodeling tips to help you really up your curb appeal:
1. Add a front porch.
Central Florida offers some gorgeous mild temperatures in the winter, spring, and fall months, making it ideal to enjoy time outside. You can expand your outdoor entertaining space and make a welcoming statement by adding a front porch to your property. A front porch addition will add immediate value and instant charm to your home, and you can further customize it by incorporating materials such slate flooring, sustainable exotic wood, and more.
2. Add a portico over the front door.
If you don't have the space to accommodate a front porch, you can add a portico over your front door to create a focal point and enhance the entryway. The most dramatic transformation of curb appeal happens when a portico is added to a flat-faced home with limited architectural detail. Adding a portico will help to define the front entryway and compliment your home's style.
3. Update your front door.
Updating your home with a new front door will have a major impact on the property's exterior appearance. Some of the latest front entry door trends in luxury homes include tall doors, simple doors that work well with transitional styling, and energy efficient doors. Some homeowners choose to update the garage doors on the home to match the front entry door for a cohesive look.
4. Add stonework.
Adding some stone to your home's exterior will make your property more substantial and will give your curb appeal that "wow" factor. It's one of the hottest design trends in Central Florida homes, and homeowners are using it to dress up exterior columns, pillars, and entryways. For homeowners interested in using green-friendly building materials, home remodeling with stone is an attractive solution.
5. Add an all-season room.
If a front porch does not fit the style of your home, an alternative solution to help you maximize your entertaining space and add curb appeal to your home is a four-season sunroom addition. A sunroom will allow you to enjoy the outdoors with the comfort of your HVAC system.
