When you think of curb appeal what pops into your mind? One could list a menagerie of things that could make the entrance and yard of a home appealing to potential buyers. Things like a manicured green lush lawn, or shrubs and trees that are well groomed and healthy. Pots of Flowers and gardens with their beauty and blooms giving off a sweet fragrance, a haven for birds and butterflies…There are so many things that can dress up your home’s curb appeal.
However, one often overlooked, yet not any less important item is the ‘humble’ mailbox. It stands proud and tall through all kinds of weather….including rain, sleet, hail and snow! Greeting the mailman each and every day without fail, without complaint….
Yet have you ever thought of how very important that brave guard of your mail really is? Yes, a home’s mailbox can offer a small glimpse into the personality of the home and its owner.
A mailbox, otherwise known as a letter box, post box, or pillar box, can go from simple to exotic. All it takes is a little imagination, some time and whole lot of love to create a functional work of art!
On the other hand, abandonment and neglect can speak volumes.
Mailboxes can take on a life of their own & add a finishing touch to your home’s curb appeal whether selling your home or just enjoying the walk out to pick up your mail
So pay attention to your mailbox and remember it tells its own story!!
