Here are some of my options:1) Landscaping - Putting in a nice fence and replanting the lawn will be great aesthetic touches and I can do them at low cost (less than $3,000 and a few weekends of solid effort).  

On decorating, my first reaction is that the aesthetics in the back don't match the front elevation and the interior, which both look great.

Historic windows are not necessarily inferior to new, and in most cases are aesthetically superior (which may be why Ms.

They are more or less equal durability-wise so it is really an aesthetic choice (and a “modern-ness” choice)

If done correctly (with windows, nice stone finish material, etc), it could be an architectural asset as well.With some proper professional landscaping (maybe also cut out a planter along the side of house), and addressing the driveway issues, that should eliminate the aesthetic liabilities and give you an amazing amount of curb appeal.There are other possibilities for completely redesigning the approach to the entry (straight off the front with a right-angle landing and a gabled portico), but would involve a lot more demo-ing, building, and expense.Similar to this:http://www.houzz.com/photos/17493/Becker-Architect...

A nice gray color of paint would look nice in this room with the white columns, giving you a clean aesthetic.

Not the most aesthetically pleasing but an option and more DIY friendly than metal railings.Good luck.

When I look at comps, I check the ones that are currently for sale and recently sold, and try to compare and contrast all of the technical aspects of the property (the ones listed in that article) as well as the fluffier stuff like aesthetics. 

Account Closed,I agree on the aesthetic point but the rental market is going crazy at the moment and have over a hundred potential tenants.  

I went to see it and aesthetically its in great shape on an good street where these types of properties get snatched up in a week.
