The front of my house, awful as it is, is literally last on my list. All my budget is directed at undoing 60 years of previous owner fuckups to make the house work as it should. And nursery fees. Mainly nursery fees.
@scobes, no point in being the only nice front garden on Sangley anyway ;)

It's more removing the owner's fuck up of putting in pebbledash and paint over it resulting in the building not being able to breathe and trap moisture, that we are now looking in getting the pebbledash removed and maybe put a lime rendering if the bricks require more work.
TLDR; like you, fixing other's fuck-up.

time and money are finite resources, and I privilege their use on other aspects of my house and life first. I keep the grass trim now but beyond that... front of the house (including new front door, new glazing, new landscaping, painting fence etc) pretty far down the list of priorities
