How to Renovate a House (with landscaping)

What happens here

After clearing the front yard, apply a fresh layer of double-shredded hardwood mulch to all planting beds. This will create a clean, uniform, and low-maintenance look. Avoid purchasing new plants; instead, consider repurposing existing healthy plants like hostas by dividing and organizing them neatly, or adding temporary potted plants that can be easily removed by the new owners. Potted plants offer flexibility to change with seasons or market trends and avoid permanent landscaping choices. Ensure all hardscaping features, like old 'bullet edging' are also removed if they contribute to an outdated look.

Goal: Create a clean, low-maintenance front yard with flexible decorative elements.
