First photo is existing. I love that one cypress tree so much.
Scroll to see my vision. I was thinking about adding, I don't know, maybe 55 more.
Thoughts?

You could do the funniest thing of all time
You are turning your front yard into a barcode. Sticking a marching band of columnar trees down every property line and walkway completely ruins the visual calm of a classic house. Columnar trees are exclamation points in a landscape and you do not write a sentence using only exclamation points. You already have a solid structural anchor with the mature trees on the left so you need to balance that with sweeping understory plants on the right instead of boxing yourself into a fortress. Good design is about connected masses that flow together into a single texture rather than a restless scatter of upright soldiers.
Leave the big ones alone and focus on widening your foundation beds to actually encompass those hostas and shrubs properly instead of letting things float in the turf. Before you spend a fortune creating a nursery liquidation sale out there you should upload your current yard into the GardenDream web app. It is a solid safety net that lets you overlay real constructible layouts and broad plant masses so you can test how a properly layered design looks before you waste time and money. Keep the porch sightlines open and let the architecture breathe.
Dream house except where’s the garage hiding?
You really want more trees …
If you were a real badass you would have 109 cypress trees in that yard.
So hot right now
Yes, I think you need about 50 Italian cypress too
It will look weird with 55 more. I’d go 75 more
Just no. Your house is beautiful. Why hide it?
