With warmer weather here to stay and spring florals in bloom, we’re reflecting on some of our favorite greenery trends we’ve seen throughout homes in Charleston. From gardens to flower boxes and everything in between, Charleston homeowners take their landscaping quite seriously. Read on to see what trends we’re loving and how you can increase your home’s curb appeal this spring season.
Luscious Gardens. In downtown Charleston, it’s quite rare to find a home with a yard, let alone space for a garden. That’s why we can’t help but marvel over the enchanting gardens we find associated with many historic homes. With lush green grass and southern magnolia, these gardens are truly something out of a book. Check out the expansive garden that doubles as an outdoor entertaining space within our new listing at 166 Wentworth Street.
Meticulous Landscaping. One of the many perks that comes with being a homeowner is that you can decorate your home however you see fit and your lawn is no exception. There’s something about a well-kept lawn that is truly admirable. Let the beauty of your home tell a story from the outside in as guests approach your property. Whether you opt for covering outdoor structures with greenery such as walkways and arches, or you decide on a neater appearance with tightly trimmed bushes and well-watered grass (check out our listing at 1210 Clonmel Place for inspiration), your landscaping deserves just as much tlc as the interior of your home.
Florals & Flower Boxes. Flowers never grow old, maybe literally but not figuratively. Springtime is here and we love seeing all of the flowers in bloom. Planting flowerbeds on your property elevates your home’s curb appeal and can show individuality in your neighborhood. Hydrangeas, azalea and carolina jessamine are just a few flowers that flourish in South Carolina’s climate. Of course we have to pay homage to the traditional window box flowers that can be seen adorning historic homes all throughout South of Broad. Window boxes are an easy way to add a little touch of southern charm to your home.
Spring florals and landscaping trends are ever present within the Charleston real estate market. Elevating your landscaping can increase your curb appeal and entice potential buyers. If you’re looking to buy your dream home and start building your own garden, our agents would be happy to assist you.
