Any ideas on how to make this house look good?

[Kevin Martin]

Does anyone have any ideas on how to spruce up the front of this house? I was thinking to stick with more of a beachy architecture to match the neighborhood. The section on the right will be converted to a one car garage. I have an idea on what I want to do but I just wanted to throw this out there and see what others think. Obviously Im trying to keep costs as low as possible but lipstick is important.
