Modern exterior

10 years ago

We just bought this house and remodeled the inside completely. Our style is modern with a touch of farmhouse. Any ideas on how to carry the look outside? And where do I start to get the most bang for my buck?

You have a lovely home. What colors do you have inside your home/do you like? I would repaint the outside, replace the double doors with glass inserts for more openness, & wrap the tall posts in cedar.

These are fiberglass doors made by ThermaTru. We have one for our front door & it's so much quieter & energy efficient than our old wood door.

Here are a couple photos of inside. We did wrap the beams in cedar and painted door black. I will post a more current photo tomorrow in the light. I'm thinking we should reside the house with board and batten and paint white?

I think a deeper more Earthy color would suit the surroundings better.

I think you can keep the existing stonework you have. I would definitely recommend removing the trim around the windows.

I like the transformation Access Custom Garage Doors made. I think that would be the first and easiest change to make.

Next, I would find out what it would take to eliminate the tongue and groove panel look from the second floor to make the surface all smooth. I'm not sure what they could do to just fill in the grooves, but making the surface smooth and painting it how Access Custom Garage Doors recommended would be my thoughts!

Lastly, you could make the pillars square with stacked stone, but that would be extra credit.
