Rustic Stone Planters
Overused landscape evergreens cover the front of the mansion. They keep dampness against the wood facade from drying and there is serious wood rot taking place.
Also, the architectural details are covered up by the evergreens. The entrance to the mansion looks like an old queen dowager.
