We recently had the pleasure of transforming the front of a charming home in Maplewood, MN, with a stunning exterior remodeling project aimed at significantly enhancing its curb appeal. By utilizing LP SmartSide siding, we not only elevated the aesthetic of the property but also ensured durability and longevity. Our team worked closely with the homeowners to design a façade that reflects their vision while complementing the surrounding neighborhood. This project exemplifies our commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction, and we are excited to share the remarkable transformation with you.
Before our team’s work, the home’s exterior had a bland mix of brown shades. This uniformity made the property lose its character and blend in with the surroundings. The various browns lacked distinction and visual interest. By rethinking the color scheme and adding some contrasting elements, we aimed to brighten up the home and highlight its unique charm.

A standout feature of this project was the home’s lovely architectural character, providing a great foundation for our work. Located in the charming Maplewood neighborhood, the property had unique design elements waiting to be showcased. The blend of classic architecture and community vibe allowed us to enhance the home while respecting its charm. We were excited to create a transformation that honored the home’s integrity and the surrounding area, making the project truly rewarding.
We chose to use LP SmartSide siding because it is an excellent choice for homeowners seeking beauty and durability. This engineered wood product resists rot, decay, and termites, making it suitable for various climates.
With a range of styles, colors, and textures, it allows for customization while maintaining the charm of traditional wood siding. Its lightweight design ensures efficient installation, saving time and labor costs. Choosing LP SmartSide enhances curb appeal and provides a long-lasting protective solution for homes.

We maintained the white shakes as accents while replacing all the brown trim with sleek white trim for a cleaner look. Interestingly, LP Smartside operates a manufacturing plant in Two Harbors, MN, where all the trim is produced, ensuring high-quality materials for our project.
Dark blue siding has become a popular choice in home design, offering a modern yet classic look. This color not only goes well with white accents but also complements the GAF roof (color: Mission Brown.) The dark siding creates a nice contrast that adds visual interest while keeping a unified style. Homeowners can achieve a stylish appearance that stands out in the neighborhood with this color scheme. The mix of dark blue, white, and the earthy tones of the Mission Brown roof enhances the home’s curb appeal.
As part of the exterior transformation, we also focused on the house numbers and custom cedar planters, which added a personal touch to the updated home. The new house numbers were designed with a sleek, modern font that complements the overall aesthetic and ensures easy visibility from the street.
This simple yet effective detail enhances the home’s curb appeal while making it more inviting. The custom cedar planters, placed strategically by the windows, serve both functional and decorative purposes.
They provide ample space for flowers or greenery, contributing to the house’s charm and creating a warm, welcoming environment. Together, these elements beautifully round out the home’s redesign, reflecting the homeowners’ style and making their property truly stand out in the neighborhood.
