Front door, trim, garage door paint and accent ideas

11 years ago

This is a new home were purchasing. There hasn't been any maintenance or care for the 9 years of the homes life. The trim doesn't show, back sidings sun bleached and front door is the only dark item on the entire house. Any color help from anyone? The exterior stucco that is a yellow tone has to stay but trim, fascia, soffit and doors are game. Thank you for your brilliant brains!

I like the doors and would leave as they are. Perhaps paint trim and columns white. Here's an inspiration photo:

I like the current colors. Unless you need to paint to freshen up I'd spend the money on landscaping.

...oh, Sun bleached. Hmm. Would still stick with the same or similar colors. Check out iscape to play with your landscaping. I just used it for mine and it helped immensely.

The landscaping is definitely one of the first things we will need to tackle. It is bad.. I agree. I appreciate your ideas and help with trim ideas. Perhaps browns or whites?
