Need advice on outdoor lighting please

10 years ago

I need help on what kind, location, and wattage for landscape lighting please. The house only has 3 recessed lights. One between stoned area with 3 windows and fountain, one on the far left, and one to the right of the porch above the small window up top. The house is very dark at night, especially up high. Appreciate any suggestions.

Nine up lights strategically placed with at least an 80 degree spread would make your house glow at night.

Walk up ground lighting to make the walkway brighter and small spot lights to cast onto the home could work too.

Yes, either FXL fixtures with an 18" stem or a few Attraction Lighting fixtures at 24".

Personally I like Attraction Lighting.
