Along a quiet stretch of Highway 1, the homes of Sereno del Mar sit on the Sonoma Coast bluffs with the Pacific spread wide below. Curb Appeal Pros mows and edges yards in this little seaside community, where a house makes its first impression from the road. Spring paints the headlands with lupine and poppies, and a freshly mowed yard framed by those wildflowers looks like a postcard someone forgot to mail. The northwest wind that combs the grass flat most afternoons makes clean edges and tidy borders matter all the more. By the last pass of the trimmer, the front of the house finally lives up to the ocean beyond it.
