Empty Front Yard Needs Foundation Plants Zone 7B

Connellys Springs, NC(Zone 7b)

I'm new to Dave's Garden and need your help badly! As you can see, the front of my ranch-style house is empty. It sits on 4 very empty acres...except for lots of wild blackberries! sigh! Anyway, I'm in total overwhelm with all of this. :( I love any kind of fragrant shrubs, hollies with those red berries, and I think I might need a tree or two at least initially. I like a more formal-Zen look. There is a Japanese magnolia a few feet off to the left side of the birdbath and a purple snowball bush to the right of the front porch...not very Zen, but there was one in my yard growing up. :) All suggestions welcome. My brain is fried!
