Is there another choice? I voted cream by default because I don't like black shutters. They would look good as well, but so would some muted color. Terracotta?

hi, terracotta looks like a great option BUT I would not want to introduce yet another color to the scheme. wanted to stay monochromatic. so why don't you like black?

It's over used and depressing. The fall back color that everyone chooses. I do like the cream however. I think that would look sharp and welcoming.

Thanks Rollinggirl! I agree on black being over used and a bit depressing. I do see why people choose it which is also the reason why its one of my option in the first place - because its a neutral and you cant go wrong as far as color palette is concern. I do like to make the house inviting as oppose to dark and gloomy.

You're welcome. Just being honest.

@carrolltf has a valid point, they really aren't needed. It's a great looking house on it's own.

HI -- No shutters .... continue the stone trim instead !

None.

thanks Everyone! how do I continue the stone trim? meaning all around the windows? I think its too late at this point. so my option is shutters or no shutters.

I voted black because the window trim is black.

I would still leave it without shutters. It doesn't need anything more. The sills and trim above the window frame it nicely. Why don't you wait until you have something on the interior to decide. They will look completely different when the house is occupied.

Another vote for cream shutters as I think it softens the impact of the house and makes it look welcoming and fresh. I think the black makes it look a bit harsh but I also think that it would look nice without shutters at all. I hope that helps.

I wouldn't use shutters on this style of house - could make it too busy and also due to the shape and positioning of the windows. Once you have landscaping, it will warm up the front.

Looks great, we agree with those above, the stone trim looks good.

I vote no shutters - they are too small and busy on the house. Once the landscaping is in the home will look great.
