Never lose sight of what you want the focus to be. Straighten the driveway and make it concrete. Don't stamp it. Just keep it simple. Do you want people to focus on your pretty house or your driveway? Besides depending on where you live, you will be pressure washing the dirt and moss out of the stamped grooves constantly. Lose all of the foundation shrubs and start over. You can't save them by pruning. Plant a shrub that flowers all summer (hydrangea, Persian lilac etc). Get big lighting. Think of it as house jewelry. The upstairs windows are visually too small. Make them look taller by putting a window box under each one. Install some drip irrigation to the boxes (on a timer) so your neighbors aren't looking at dead plants. When you paint, paint over the slim black water tubing that you have run up to the boxes. Add some bright accents with cushion on you new porch furniture. As for the house color, it just has to match the brick and the roof. Upload a photo to a paint website and try out a few colors.
