I showed this house the other day. The yard had clearly been landscaped (per the MLS listing, professionally) and had great curb appeal from the street.
Upon closer inspection, however, one has to question of the logic of what was done. I was reminded of the cult movie Little Shop of Horrors and the plant that kept asking to be fed (YouTube clip).
The plants are lush, VERY much so, and they are taking over. You might say they are over-achievers!!
You couldn't even get to the front door, which made it unwelcoming. And from inside one has the feeling they were trying to get in. Great, if you want privacy but they obscured the light and the views quite a bit, especially in the one bedroom.
And there were a couple that clearly wanted to prohibit you from entering the backyard through the gate.
At least it's fixable, and with a completely remodeled interior, the home still represents a great value. But I had to wonder....Curb Appeal? Or Curb Unappeal?
