Whether it was down an alley in Athens or on the cobblestone street in Santorini a front door was always the focal point of homes. Most were aesthetically pleasing that elevated the entire facade it added character and I became in love with front doors.

When selling your home you may want any to look at your front door.

I once had a gorgeous house I listed in Silver Oak in Carson City with a Spanish front door. Everyone who entered through the door made a comment about it.  The front door in this house really set the stage of what was inside the door was both strength and beauty and so was the house.
