Any creative Ideas for home with awkward exterior?? Pic included
Hey BP!
We have this home under contract and it's an awesome deal! The problem is that the front of the house looks the it should be the back of the house! We are trying to come up with design ideas. Currently there is a deck in the front of the home which we'd like to remove. We would like to turn the double door into a large window and enlarge the small window on the left side. Problems we are having is the distance from ground to what will become a window on right side and also a porch design. Any ideas??

What about some sort of roof over that front side with a bigger front porch added? I am thinking a gable roof that is smaller than the existing gable roof of the house. A roof + porch will add depth and texture to the house.
If you have the budget for it maybe you could wrap the porch around to that side door, too.
