Are you considering selling your home in the near future? Whether it’s a short-term plan or a possibility further down the road, there’s an essential aspect you should pay attention to: curb appeal!
The exterior appearance of your home is the first impression potential buyers will have, and it plays a crucial role in determining the overall value and desirability of your property. Investing in improving your home’s curb appeal can yield significant returns and make a lasting impact on potential buyers!
Today we’re sharing some easy, Do-It-Yourself (DIY) ways to improve your outdoor space to enhance your home’s curb appeal. We love any chance to get outside, learn something new, and add value to our home!
Here are our top five easy landscaping projects:
Create a Pathway.
To guide you and visitors throughout your yard and link different areas together, install a pathway. You can use materials from a variety of materials, including reclaimed pallet wood, flagstones, gravel, and more to add texture and color.
Add a Wall or Border.
Installing a flagstone, rock, or brick wall around flower beds or trees adds a sleek, clean look to your landscaping and helps separate different sections of your yard.
Install a Water Feature.
Nothing says zen quite like the sound of trickling water as you relax in your backyard. You can start simple with by purchasing and installing a small feature powered by a solar panel or create a larger focal point in your yard by installing a waterfall wall or small pond.
Light Your Way.
An easy way to transform your yard is to strategically use lighting. Place cool-colored lights high in trees to recreate a moonlight feel, use pathway lights to naturally guide the eye, or highlight objects or plants.
Plant Upwards.
Expand your yard space by drawing the eye to the sky with a trellis fence or screen made of wood or metal. Once you install your trellis, select your climbing plants and vines and get to planting!
