Whether you are considering listing your home soon or ready to upgrade your spaces to enjoy for years to come, here are some thoughtful outdoor renovations for homeowners to consider this fall to enhance their home’s curb appeal.
And the best part is, we’re sharing local contacts to help you get started on several ideas!
Add color to your front door.
Let your front door make a statement with a bold color choice. Popular choices for front doors among today’s homeowners include black, red, white, blue, green and teal.
Upgrade your landscaping.
From plants and shrubs to adding new flower beds or borders, landscaping improvements are one of the most popular outdoor renovations for homeowners to tackle. Common choices include low-maintenance trees, shrubs and flowering plants that attract butterflies, birds and bees.
Native plants are also good additions to front and backyards. To learn more about what plants are native to our area and what flowering shrubs and plants do well, visit a local nursery or garden shop such as The Potting Shed, Botanic’s Garden Center or Plant World Nursery in Beauregard.

Light your landscapes.
Set the mood this fall with an ambient glow throughout your landscapes at night with string lights, landscape lighting, bistro lights, porch scones or modern light fixtures.

Upgrade or add an outdoor kitchen.
According to Houzz, one in eight renovating homeowners shared they are adding or upgrading an outdoor kitchen. While this is a big project to consider, an outdoor kitchen creates an extended living space and elevates entertaining at home.
Most outdoor kitchens feature grills, but some designs incorporate cooktops, smokers, deep fryers or pizza ovens. If you are tackling this project yourself, shop University Ace Hardware’s collection of smokers, grills, cooktops and more.
Enhance outdoor spaces with details.
Pick out a cozy outdoor sectional with a soft throw and decorative pillows. Add an outdoor rug and coffee table for a relaxing atmosphere on your back porch or patio. Hang a unique piece of art on your fence.
The idea behind this outdoor trend is aesthetic, comfort and durability. A good place to shop locally for outdoor furniture and more is Watson Brothers Patio and Hearth.
