We're in the process of trying to get our house "market ready". We have a beautiful view and our house is cozy and welcoming. We've already done a lot of work (with still much to do) on the inside and we're now at the point where we need to decide what to do on the outside. I've been scouring the internet for some ideas as to what to do for landscaping. Currently we have some giant azalea bushes on both sides of the front porch. The sides do not grow at the same rate despite keeping one side trimmed. One side has way too many plants next to each other...and don't get me started on the ivy. I love the way it looks but it consumes everything! I'm really struggling with what to do. I'm a novice in this area and I want something basic but flattering.
We live in a white cape cod style home with a stucco surface. It definitely has a country cottage kind of feel and I want to reflect that in the landscaping. Here are a few ideas but I'm definitely open to suggestions. I've never really done landscaping so I'll take whatever advice you want to offer...I know I'm trying to opt for perennials simply because I don't know when we'll sell the house and I want something that will last.

I love the simple look.

The purple and gold would go well with our home and the types of plants compliment the country setting.

I think the stones add a nice touch.

Maybe simple will be best...?

I like simple the best. And it depends how much time you realistically think you'll spend weeding and keeping up with the plants. I would go for simple with some bursts of color.
