Anyone selling their home knows first impressions are crucial. Your home may be beautiful inside, but many buyers might not make it through the front door if unkempt grass or dead plants in the front yard scares them away.
Creating an enticing outdoor space is a simple and cost effective way to increase the curb appeal and value of your home. While grass creates a beautiful and lush landscape, upkeep can be incredibly costly. Save yourself both time and money by investing in hardscape. Not only will it improve the appearance of your home, it will also increase the overall value and curb appeal. There’s no doubt potential buyers will love moving into a home they know will continue to look beautiful with minimal work!
Here are a few ways that hardscape can easily be incorporated into your front and backyard:
Walkways
Guide potential buyers from the street of driveway and into the front door with a beautiful and functional walkway. A professional hardscape designer can help you create a beautiful stone or brick pathway in a variety of color and size combinations. Each walkway is custom created to flow seamlessly with the overall design of your home or as a unique combination that makes a statement. A professional designer will help you select the perfect materials that create a smooth and convenient walking path.
Front porch
Take enjoying your front yard to a new level by creating an extensive front porch for your home. Porches create a beautiful and relaxing focal point for the exterior of your home. Anyone touring your home will dream of relaxing evenings on the porch as soon as they step out of their car. Not only will you be able to reduce the amount of yard work with a porch, you will also be creating a seamless transition from yard to home.
Water features
Families and couples stopping by to view your recently upgraded won’t even notice the minimal landscaping when you swap out a patch of grass for a relaxing, yet luxurious water feature. A beautiful stone water foundation will give your home a look of luxury at an efficient cost. Your buyers will be more than willing to negotiate the price if it means achieving a dream front yard.
Patios
A potential buyer would love moving into a home with a beautiful outdoor patio perfect for summer barbecues or relaxing outdoor dinners. By creating a unique outdoor living space, anyone touring your home will instantly fall in love with a backyard built for entertaining.
