We all know that curb appeal is important to the look, feel, and resale of our home, but changing our home’s exterior is easier said than done. Whether you can only afford a few cans of paint, or whether you’re ready to completely renovate, these 10 home exterior makeover before and after ideas are sure to inspire!
German Smear Technique
This home was renovated by Chip and Joanna Gaines on HGTV’s Fixer Upper. New front doors, wood shingles, wood shutters, square post columns, and a painting technique called “German Smear” completely transformed the look of this cape cod!
Southern Craftsmen
Creating a beautiful exterior isn’t just about adding more; sometimes you need to scale back! Removing trees and a few windows made a huge difference to the curb appeal of this southern charmer.
Country Living Farmhouse
This beautiful home just needed some extreme TLC. Very few structural changes were necessary to give the home new life.
Modern Brick Home Exterior Renovation
Sometimes the before and the after can be equally beautiful, and yet distinctly different. In 2008, Nester painted her brick colonial, replaced the shutters, and changed the front doors and entryway to create a completely different exterior!
Ranch with Porch Renovation
The addition of the portico porch dramatically changed the exterior of this ranch style home! Depending on the space, design, and contractor, a small porch addition can cost between R5,000-R50,000.
Fixer Upper French Country Renovation
On an episode of HGTV’s Fixer Upper, the homeowners longed for a french country feel to their home. They picked this home trusting Chip and Joanna to deliver a French Country look to their sprawling ranch home, and the end result was amazing. Interestingly, this project also garnered mixed reviews because of the painted brick.
Blue Cottage Renovation
This is a great example of how small changes combine to make a BIG improvement! The paint is an obvious upgrade, but take a closer look and you’ll see lots of small changes everywhere.
Country Home Renovation
Simply beautiful! What a diamond in the rough! It’s such a joy to see neglected homes come to life again.
Cape Cod Renovation
Chip and Joanna Gaines added dormer windows to the existing structure to give the illusion of a second story. Love it? What would you have done differently?
The Indiana House Renovation
This exterior renovation is amazing! The addition of the gabled porch made a HUGE difference, but I also love the shutter removal, blue exterior, and yellow front door.
