Read on to learn some clever ways to add outdoor appeal to your home, from the landscape design experts at C&M Residential

Curb Appeal

Why not start from the first thing people see upon viewing your home—the literal curb and driveway? This is such a simple upgrade, but is often overlooked in favor of flashier projects. However, a well-crafted driveway apron and concrete work can add that little bit of extra polish that sets your home apart from others in your neighborhood. 

Hardscaping 

Speaking of concrete, hardscaping is another outdoor upgrade that can totally transform the appearance of your home. Think of the hardscaping as the “bone structure” of your yard, giving it shape and composition. This can include walkways, patios, retaining walls, and custom features built in concrete, stone, pavers, or brick. 

Outdoor Rooms

Outdoor living spaces are extremely important to home buyers, especially here in north Georgia where the climate allows for three-season use. Whether it’s a screened-in porch, outdoor kitchen, fire pit, or outdoor fireplace, outdoor rooms tend to provide good ROI in addition to improving the quality of life for your family with more time spent outdoors.
