These Front Walkway Ideas Will Make You Glad To Come Home
Making your home feel brand new can be as simple as updating the curb appeal. At Allentuck Landscaping, we’ve designed and installed a variety of front walkways over the years, and today we’ve gathered a few of our favorites to showcase. Each walkway features a unique pattern or material combination. If you’re searching for fresh front walkway ideas, we hope these examples spark something brilliant—and when you’re ready, we’d love to help bring those ideas to life.
A Place To Greet and Relax
Who says a walkway has to be just a walkway? This front entry is also commonly used for greeting guests and for relaxing at the end of the day. Surrounded by flowers and the calming sound of water from the wall fountain, this walkway is a great place to gather and unwind.

Simple and Stately
Brick pavers make an excellent front entry. In this project, a simple basket weave pattern with a soldier edging course compliments the flagstone threshold beautifully. The white columns on the stoop were preserved to give a stately look.
