What is Curb Appeal?

“Curb appeal” is everything about the house and the adjoining landscaping that contributes to the aesthetic beauty of the property. Attention to architectural details, good color combinations, and a well-designed landscape, are all important factors in the creation of good curb appeal. The journey from the driveway or sidewalk to the front door should be one of interest and discovery that culminates at a beautifully designed entry door. In helping our clients create an overall vision for their curb appeal project, the goal of Design Exteriors is the maximization of both aesthetic appeal, and property value increase, while working within the scope of our client’s budgets.

Curb appeal is the equivalent of charisma in a home.

“It’s that quality that makes you say “wow,” when you first see it. You feel good when you pull into the driveway. You want to walk in the front door. Whether the home is yours or one that you’re considering, curb appeal can make a big difference in how you feel about the property.

If your home has that star quality, you not only won’t have any trouble getting more for it than similar homes in the same neighborhood. It also means you won’t have any trouble getting potential buyers into the home.
