Entryways serve an important purpose in the landscape. Ideally, they invite visitors into the home. If your entryway is less than welcoming, however, here are some quick tips for improving its appeal:

  • Repaint of refinish the front door, and consider adding a new knocker doorknob lock, hinges and doorbell.
  • Make sure your front porch is free of clutter, and repair any damage if necessary.
  • Decorate your porch with container or hanging plants.
  • Include planting beds on either side of your front entryway to draw visitors in and improve the view from the street.
  • Finally, make sure your entryway is well-lit at night. Nothing turns visitors away faster than a dark home!
