Not enough can be seen in the single photo. Stand in the SAME PLACE you took this one (as opposed to ANY other place!) and PIVOT leftward, capturing that side of the house and yard, and another PIVOTING rightward, capturing that side. Meanwhile, here's some thoughts on your yard ...

yaardvark thank you for your input! I will take better pics tomorrow & upload. Your suggestions so far are great and much appreciated!

These suggestions are not in lieu of the previous ones, but in addition to them. I'm suggesting here that you create a bed line that provides depth and "framing" at the flanks of the home and recedes at it approaches the central and entrance area. This leads and invites one visually toward the entrance. While I'm showing it in a perspective view to (hopefully) make it easy to grasp, you'd need to work out the actual layout in plan view. You already have a tree at the right flank. In order for there to be depth at the left flank, you need plant material in the bed that makes the bed make sense ... a tree in a bed of groundcover for example.
