Picture showing more of front would be helpful. First thought is to pave or tile the whole front area, from the beginning of the house( don't know where that is or if it makes sense) to the front door. Is there any wood on the house? Maybe clad the front pillars in food to break up the brick. Bench, planters. Paint door.
That would be a great space for a patio :) like maybe the 24"x24" concrete pavers laid out in a grid with an inch of grass in-between.. Take it all the way out to the driveway & put a couple patio chairs out there..
Thanks for the extra pics. Still thinking along the same line. Trim the bushes by the sidewalk to make the sidewalk more visible and accessible. If you can, replace the package with new door with clear glass or no glass and new sidelights or none. Put in a courtyard that comes out to the white wall with whatever works for you. Pavers, pavers and gravel, low decking, concrete, tile, brick. Anything. Add bench , chairs , mini trees in pots flowers. Make it welcoming. Could even add a trellis over the area. Deck could be made smaller and planting beds put in under Windows for small shrubs or flowers.
Grass in the area between the ac unit and the driveway. Add a walk way from drive to the deck in material that works withe the rest. I would add pictures but don't know how.
