I would keep everything as is except for the door color. I think that red would be great,

The biggest issue is the lack of tidiness and landscaping. Is that a garage without a driveway? New landscaping and a manicured look are much needed.

Definitely do not paint the stone - it works with the roof and is more expensive than anything you could afford to replace it with . . instead, let's get a great color on the front door. With the muted stone greens, I can't see red - you have several choices that would be terrific,

If you play up the cottage factor of the stone, the architecture really starts to work for you.

let's select a muted blue green for the front door . . I like this historic color . . http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/millspringsblue

Do consider painting the garage door one of the plain grays to match the stone .. something in the 50's LRV wise . .

if you want something more contemporary . . eggplant . . look at http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/autumnpurple

greens and grays . . you could do a lake blue instead of blue green . . bm franklin lake http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/franklinlakes#ce_s=lake

HI -- Don't put a red door on a green house . It will make the green more green . Work with the green color and don't paint the stone . Paint the house main a medium grey taupe that has a green undertone color with a charcoal trim . Then you can paint the front door a deep rich gold or black .

Thank you guys, firstly there is a driveway that you just can't see from the angle the picture was taken.
Secondly om really not even sure that the stone is real it may be some sort of faux thing.
My main issue is that u really hate e green and want to steer away from it at least on the exterior walls since I don't think there's a way to change he roof color without spending thousands

I'd prefer almost anything soft except something red, pink or orange, and yes, it looks unkempt because of the grass in front of the garage, can't afford a drive way, how about cutting it very short, I mean clip it way down and let the lawn be slightly longer. Please match the garage to your new door color too. If that's too much money, why not leave the paint on the doors as it and paint all trim in a soft color but darker that the house by a few shades, like a lady putting on mascara it will make a difference with a little cash. The bushes need someone who is good with pruners, it's easy to make them even more lumpy, so maybe if this isn't your thing, a friend or a professional, they're two small bushes, couldn't cost that much and still be cheaper than ripping out and replanting.

We can afford to paint and even possibly put a new door . There is s driveway. We don't yet own the house so we know the grass must be cut but it's not yet ours to cut. We're at the stage of gathering ideas of what to do as soon as it's ours. We're looking for a new color scheme that could work with the green roof and any other ideas that cud spruce this place up as well

as usual libra design eye has some excellent color choices.
I love your stone and room but then I painted my ugly brown house a sage green (Val spar green tea leaves.) and my door and shutters eggplant ( Forgot name) Go for the sands and taupe colors in your stone for the garage door. Go bolder on the front door --eggplant, a brick red, deep dark teal. (our back door is Val spar perfect storm a teal that has a lot of charcoal it it. so it works with taupe or green.) those greens are a good backdrop for bright flowers. add a small bed of flowers around the shrubs or pots on either side of the door.

What does the back of the house look like? Is the inside of the house awesome? You can do a lot with a little paint for the front door and some cleaning up of the yard and some purple and white petunias all along the front of the house. The front of a house doesn't always have to be a star attraction, it just has to be the best it can.

Trust us, the green roof can be really charming but is a gray green - not good with anything beige or warm in undertone . . you have a lot of cottage charm potential here . . test these colors against the stone . .I think if you put the right things with it, you can grow to love it . . they haven't known what to do and so the uniqueness of it doesn't feel custom now . . but when you choose the right colors with it, it is going to be really beautiful and architecturally stunning (not what most people have .. .hang in there).

A pale historic tone like bm stonington gray is what I was thinking for trim - it will look offwhite outside on a house . . trying to hit the undertone of the stone. . .

The little christmas trees are in the wrong place .. looks like the front door could definitely be painted to bring the cottage charm with the upper light . . do you like cottage gardens? Massing flowering shrubs in zig zag patterns . . when you are done you will hardly see the stone on the house . . this is a house that could have a picket fence and arbor over the front walk . . i will go look some up and be back . .

A paintable carriage house garage door with plant on hardware would be a better outlay than a new front door . see the garage door choice below. Your front door seems like it just needs paint . . does one of the blue or blue green tones I posted above work for you?

For trim .. . test these to see how they blend with your siding tones - trim should be lighter, garage darker but same color family . .

and a little bit deeper for the garage door - http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/fieldstone

Here is a simple cottage edge on some lawn .. they've massed different kinds of plants in groupings of three or five, heights growing towards the structure, changes in foliage color,

there is a path through but some taller elements near the house .. . leaving one of the evergreens is fine . . (the one not in front of the window) but the pair is badly situated and it needs other elements rising in the foreground so it is part of a larger landscape. You may be in a climate with lots of snow . . then you want some evergreen, some flowering and deciduous, some groundcovers .. select your favorites and them mass them / use more of the same plant rather than one of each thing . .

Libradesigneye your ideas sound great!
The garage door and front door are supposed to match or not?
Also there is an ugly glass in the center of the door I'm not sure that you can really tell from the pic. I'm going to go over to the house soon and hopefully get some better pics, I would love your opinion on it. Also I'll try to get a better pic of the stones and their color

not here - you want the front door to call attention to itself with a cottage blue green - think i pulled bm mill springs blue (it is a blue green that will make your stone look so great) do a gray on the garage door that makes it blend in but be a touch darker than the house .. . .. if you hate the door then i hear you . . looked like it had a little bit of cottage element . it might be a lot less $ to call a glass company to change out the glass than to buy a new door . . .

a carriage door for the garage might look like this

paint grade . . cross buck sort of trim with handles and hardware to make it feel more like a carriage door . ... paint it the darkest gray in the/ just deeper than matching the stone . .

I took some more photos of the house, the stone is really flat and it seems that the green was actually painted on. There is also an updated picture of the door I would consider to just change the glass and paint the door but I don't think I would just want plain glass. Any ideas what i can do with the glass? Are there options? With the new photo of the full house you can see better what might be done for landscaping as well

Some of the photos didn't load in the last message here they are

I like the whole cottage idea but I don't want it to turn into my grandmothers house. We're young and we want it to have a little edge, maybe if I could go more in the shabby chic direction and give it a little trendiness...

Also what do you think of painting the roof? I did a bit of research and it seems like that can be done

what do you think of this?

I'm looking at a range of at least three colors . . you'll want to use them side by side so the stones look as real as possible . . the stone texture at even the short distance of your photographs looks fairly real. If you spray it so it is all one color, all the grout line distinction will be gone and you won't improve the look . . test these - they should work with the siding and the roof and give you a prettier house . .definitely stick with the blue green door color above and if you dislike the leaded glass in the door now, you can certainly have a simpler door window as shown above .. it doesn't have to be clear - you can get obscured glass or have them frost your glass .. talk to a local commercial glazing company about the options for changing that out of the existing door.

Outdoors, although these are off whites, they will look like natural,creamy stones. They should work well with the siding tone and the roof tone. Try to match the fascia with trim around the door . . or repaint them all with a darker shade of rodeo .. closest to the siding on the rest of the house.

I think the house you pulled is an architectural marvel of mid century modern style (eichler) .. you would need to replace more than the funky stone look stuff on the front for that - it is about clerestory windows, post and beam construction, shed roofs. . . painting a roof is not a good solution .. we can do something cooler though. You can replace the stucco with siding but that is a big expense. even restuccoing is pretty pricey and it won't advance what you are trying for. We can do that somewhat with color . .

If you use the colors above, with the taupe trim (what i see on the fascia now) around the windows and entry door, and on the garage door, then you do an eggplant front door . . that would be kind of mod cottage. With the green roof, and the stone texture, better to embrace the cottage quality but do some funky farmhouse fixtures and a unique front door. Concentrate on the landscaping and the inside . . this won't be your forever house but you can make it look a lot better, and add the most value by working with what it is.

I was just focusing on the colors of the eichler style home. I thought the green could match and then I could get the red door I've always dreamed of having :)

once I'm painting the stones isn't there some brighter, more exciting color I could paint it that would compliment another color door. I'm feeling a little sad about all this beige coloring (Although I do like the purple door)

You can have a red door . . but it will be sort of a lodge / lake house vibe . . that can be done here for sure . . .best to not try to be mod at all but just embrace the lodge vibe of the exterior . .

For the stone, my off whites are not beige, really .. they are a khaki / camoflauge / revere pewter sort undertone . . since I don't have the rest of your siding in front of me, clear as a color on its own, you definitely want to stay off white for the front . . . just not white white or it will look as fake as it does now up close .. . real stone isn't white white .. and that is what we are going for . .your siding looks to be a deeper shade of what I pulled ..

try bm moroccan red http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/moroccanred

I'm not sure you can see the color but it's sort of a white but not bright white maybe with grayish tone

I too like red doors but with the green roof pick a red with some blue in it. Or the eggplant color from above also would look great. You can change out the glass in the door yourself. Get a frosted glass. But it will cost you. The better solution would get a new door. Check if your door is standard size. Then it would be less to replace it. Installing and price of door may be anywhere from $600 to over a $1000. Look on houzz for cottage style doors to get inspiration.

And what were they thinking painting green on the stone siding? Can you just sand blast off the green?

That is totally stucco and can be painted. I'd paint just the green bits, get a brand new door and paint it the eggplant suggested. As for the trim, use a color recommended by the paint company to go well with the eggplant. All paint companies do this, online or even in the store.

if your painting the stone, remember it's never one flat color, that would look weird. The new pics are much better. I like the eggplant suggestion, not common like red either, so there's the edge you're looking for!
