I suggest a wreath on the front door and some planters of flowers and greenery along the long portion of the house. When seasons change and the flowers die you'll still want the greenery. Beautiful place anyway! It won't need much.
It looks like such a nice solid house. I would paint the door(s) in front and the siding at the top to match the stone. I would not put a patio in the driveway (why, when you have a deck?) and I definitely would not make a mock garage door, since IMHO they should not be seen! Sometimes less done is better.
I personally would have sliding on the upper portion in sage green and next to the front door. Add decorative trim to the front top windows and add a trellis along the front above the door extending across the entire front. For the front door and something with glass and rod iron for a focal point. Place light and mail box and large footed urn at the door and along that wall and rod iron table set. Here's a few photos of things I mentioned😊📌
