I am looking for remodeling ideas for the exterior of a standard bilevel. I was hoping for something that would make the home more contemporary or modern looking possibly with a porch or deck in the front and a different looking entry. I am planning to replace windows and siding so now is the time to make changes. Help!

Sounds like a job for your friendly local architect! There isn't much we can do here without seeing the house, and interviewing you to discover exactly what you have in mind. A good architect can provide you with a series of quick sketches based on your ideas and desires. From them you can select the ones that most meet your desires, and proceed from there.
