Just last week I assigned bonus points because that home lacked a chain link fence. As you can see, this house does have that dreaded accessory, but since it’s in good repair and the only negative, I am letting it slide.
This is a great front yard. Instead of saying “this is my personal sports field,” it says “here is a place to explore.” One is vastly more interesting than the other. The flowers add color to what would otherwise be a colorless home. As for making it friendlier, removing the bars from the front door would help with that.
