There are many factors that go into determining a home’s curb appeal. These include the overall upkeep of the structure itself, as well as the landscaping around the entire property. Improving a property’s curb appeal is a great way to improve its resale value. However, you don’t need to wait until you’re ready to sell your home before taking action to improve its curb appeal. Everyone deserves to live in a beautiful, comfortable home they feel proud of.
Add a fresh layer of mulch.
Over time, mulch takes on a faded, tired appearance that detracts from the property’s curb appeal. Every spring, ask your landscaper to add a fresh layer of mulch. Mulching your garden beds is also an eco-friendly move. It reduces the amount of water that the sun will evaporate from the ground.
Build a new walkway.
A well-defined walking path can instantly make a home look more fashionable. Consider hiring a landscaping company to install a walkway made from stone pavers or brick. Plant flowers alongside the path and add landscape lighting.
Switch from grass to synthetic.
Nothing detracts from the appearance of a home quite like a yellowing, dying lawn. Yet, in Southern Arizona, watering a lawn often seems like an incredibly wasteful use of a precious natural resource. You can avoid this conundrum entirely by having a landscaping company remove your turf and replace it with a synthetic version. Modern synthetic grasses look completely natural. Plus, they’re easy to maintain, and they will never turn yellow and die.
Vary your plantings.
Proper landscaping is all about the right balance. Ideally, your property should feature a mix of plantings of different sizes, textures, and colors. A diverse portfolio of plant life will greatly enhance your home’s curb appeal.
