Ask any Realtor – they will tell you that the driveway design at your Springfield VA home affects its curb appeal. If your driveway looks great – then it adds value to your home. But if your driveway looks awful – in disrepair, cracked, and stained/discolored – you’ll find that buyers will be more likely to pass on your home. And when it does eventually sell, you will get less for your home.
Here are some great driveway designs that could add great curb appeal to your Springfield VA home:
Driveway Patterns – using pavers to create concentric circles, basket weave patterns, sunbursts, or patterns within borders.
Dyed and Stamped “Brick” Concrete – concrete can be dyed and stamped to create a “brick” look, for about half the cost of a new brick driveway.
Stained and/or Textured Concrete – homeowners can select from a multitude of colors to compliment their home, patterns can be stamped and textures added for a customized look.
Porous Pavers or Paving Bricks – with the addition of hardy ground covers, such as blue star creeper (Isotoma fluviatilis) and Corsican mint (Mentha requienii), you can have a natural looking driveway that melds into your landscaping.
Mixed and Matched Materials
Some homeowners are choosing to mix a new asphalt driveway with a decorative border of bricks, pavers, or stamped and/or stained concrete.
