This would make a pretty card, I think. I really like that it was still snowing. That adds a lot of atmosphere to the shot. One thing I noticed is that the barn in the back is probably more interesting than the more prominent house. Of course, unless the property is yours, walking around for different angles is not always an option.

Might be worth trying a monochrome but boosting the red as a solitary additional colour. I like it for it's 'postcard' view.
Gives me that 'spur of the moment from someone who instinctively knows what they want' look.

Th composition is interesting to analyze. The negative point for me is the red post in middle of frame with the fence changing from wood to barbed wire at that same central point. There's a sense of two stronger stories mashed into one frame: one is a cozy home/Christmas card theme on the left. And there is an attractive winter wonderland scene on the right, with three snow-covered trees through which we glimpse the red barn (with barbed wire cloned out, or shot so it's excluded).

I would leave in the wire fence. It is the jarring note that imposes reality on a poetic scene.
