Peyzaj ve hardscape dahil olmak üzere dış ev tadilatı

Single family residence built in 1971 needs updated, including exterior of house, front and back yard, in more contemporary, clean and simple design.

EXTERIOR to include: updated, more contemporary look in terms of colors, stucco, front door, garage door, possible removal of brick chimney.
FRONT YARD to include: simple design, steps leading up to house, possible sitting area, drought tolerant landscaping.
BACKYARD to include: possibly a free standing patio cover OR foliage that provides more shade and privacy, coffee table fire pit, small BBQ island, idea for the spacious side yard, drought tolerant landscaping.

Current condition: too much outdated red brick, outdated design, concrete in back yard has many dips, uneven surfaces, cracks and patio cover hangs too low. Overall solid space but just needs updated. If relevant to project, might replace and/or update patio sliders for better appearance and transition between indoor and outdoor spaces. Overall budget: $50,000 - $100,000.

Goal: An overall updated/contemporary design for house exterior, front and back yard. Challenges: Number one challenge has been achieving a preferred design that efficiently utilizes our small back yard, making it cozy yet minimalistic and more contemporary. The simpler, cleaner, cozier, the better. The other challenge has been getting a design for the entire exterior, ie., house exterior, front yard and backyard. We'd prefer not to just focus on the backyard now and the front yard, exterior of the home later. We'd prefer a design that encompasses everything now.

Preference is contemporary without going overboard b/c the home is not ultra contemporary/modern. We like simple concrete, decomposed granite, lots of green plants, incorporation of some sort of composite wood decking material and an eye toward a small cozy space in the backyard.
Backyard to include: possibly a free standing patio cover OR foliage that provides more shade and privacy, coffee table fire pit, small BBQ island, idea for the spacious side yard, drought tolerant landscaping.
Front yard to include: simple design, steps leading up to house, possible sitting area, drought tolerant landscaping.
