When it comes to the exterior of your home, walkways can help bring the curb appeal of your home to the next level. Walkways have multiple applications beyond a simple place to walk. But how can you use the walkway to really raise the aesthetic of your home?

Using Walkways to Boost Your Home's Curb Appeal

Create Separate Areas with Walkways

When you take a bird’s eye view of either your front or back yard, imagine ways you could divide the space into more pleasing sections. Using walkways of any material, you can create separate spaces for your garden, a potential patio, or any other areas you may want to isolate.

Walkways can help to lead the eye around your yard to various points of interest like gazebos or floral areas. Depending on the material you choose to use, the effect can be heightened. For example, a brighter material like Fieldstone, Flagstone, or certain colors of pavers can provide a splash of white or grey in the midst of green grass.

Add Lighting to Your Walkways for Added Flair

Both functional and festive, lighting can add a lot to your walkways and to your landscape in general. Here are a few things outdoor lighting can do for your landscaping.

  • Keep your guests safe as they walk through your yard at night.
  • Guide your guests around your yard by adding lights to your pathways.
  • Add ambiance to the space.

Use Gravel and Rocks in Conjunction with Your Walkways

To add a little variation to your walkways, you can have gravel or rocks to the sides. Rocks can come in a variety of colors like black, red, and brown to help elevate your aesthetic and seamlessly integrate into the rest of your yard.

Gravel will have a similar effect. Truly, it’s up to you which material will suit you best. Keep in mind that both of these additions may need additional maintenance as they can get swept away by rain or moved by heavy foot traffic.
