Make sure your house number is legible. There’s nothing worse than having that uncertain feeling on whether you are walking up to the right house or not! Also be sure that it’s visible throughout the entire day and going into the night. Outdoor lighting can be a great problem solver in this case.

Keep it simple! Leave enough room for your guests to be at the front door and not feel overwhelmed or cramped while they are waiting for you to answer. The extra breathing space is comforting and relaxing.
