I think the image is to blurry on 100% size. Some intentional Dof will draw more focus to a certain area.
The rendertime is way to long. PMC is not neccesary on daylight outdoor images. PT will do the job fine.
The scene has to much contrast and color. I tend to render out a neutral image and do camera profiles in post.
A background image would be nice to. Now the sky "falls" onto the lawn. So I also don't render the sky to have a clean alpha.

I really don't like the light here. It's somehow flat, and the image is overexposed. You can bring put beautiful colours with octane, so I would give it another chance.

Wow, Thanks Guys!! That's all I need!
Work on some of your helpful tips.
Water fixed as attached.. I made a mistake.
I am not allowed to do any DOF as the client insists to show the clear whole pictures.
Also was required to make this 'not too drama' by clients.
More comments! Thanks so much!

Are you saying that there is no DOF in your picture? To me it definetly looks like there is DOF (building and trees a blurry).
If this was my picture I would do the following changes :
1. reduce the DOF
2. move the camera few meters back so the building would be shown more
3. turn the camera a bit upwards so the sky would be shown more and the water less
4. maybe make the tree in front a bit smaller so it would not block the house so much
5. cut the grass next to the house and around the path. Now it looks not taken care of. (Take off the flowers on cut grass)(The grass near the rocks look good)
6. Lower the water level by at least 30cm
7. increase the size of water displacement map by atleast 200%
8. still too green water. Make it more blue and desaturate it.
9. if the house it not supposed to be next to a sea or some large water, put a reflected image behind the camera so a reflection of a city/forest/etc is reflected to the 1st floor windows
10. the white wall and a white cloud is "merged". Either darken the building a bit or the cloud so they are not the same color.
11. is the dog on the balcony supposed to be real or a statue? If it´s supposed to be real, then take it off. It doesn´t look good.

Much better!
I would still show more of the roof and darken the sky.
I would also still cut the grass because it looks now like it has been neglected for couple of weeks. ( http://www.nixa-lawn-service.com/wp-con ... jpg?813d74 )
Background forest looks low res but that´s fine.

Thanks again.
I will upload one more shot with more roof.
This not a typical lawn as it belongs to to local council and it does look more in natural side.
