KATIE STAPLES on Instagram: "4 ways we’re adding curb appeal to our 1960s ranch style home: 1. Updating the roofline by adding two peaks to the front elevation 2. Adding dormers for traditional charm that also help balance out the right side of the house 3. Increasing the size of our windows. We went with black for added contrast to our neutral home 4. Reducing the size of our eaves from 18” to 12” Stay tuned for more updates and a completed project this October! 👏🏻"
