We have a 1960's split level in desperate need of an update. We have already replaced the windows but need to do something about the front steps and the paint. It is mainly brick with about 20% of the house being painted wood. We were looking at the wider siding to fit the time period better. Our dilemma is color and if we should change the vertical portion to horizontal. The front steps are cracking badly so we know we need to replace them but it will not be done at the same time as the siding due to cost. The front bushes can also go it I will write that In a different post.
Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
