25 Home Entrance Landscape Designs to Wow Your Lawn Gnomes

Last updated on October 15, 2025

Transform your home’s first impression from drab to fab with entrance landscape designs that’ll make your neighbors green with envy!

Every time I approach my front door, I’m greeted by… well, the unmistakable charm of my mailbox slowly succumbing to gravity. Not exactly the grand impression I was hoping to make on visiting guests or, let’s be honest, myself.

If your entranceway is more “haunted-house chic” than “warm and welcoming,” you’re not alone. Thankfully, it’s easier to transform that space into a delightful preamble to your home with the right landscape design ideas.

Unless, of course, you’re a firm believer that a wilderness-inspired look is your aesthetic. In which case, a few strategically placed gnomes might just do the trick.
