with a white roof your options are endless! You could paint the house white, shutters black and then do the front door in a bold color- I would not do a red door as that is over done, but some other fun color. What ever you decide to do, I would stick with a fairly light and neutral color for the house and pop it up with the shutters and front door. Good luck!

A more suitable look for FL would be awnings in a pretty tropical blue green, or aqua against a white house.

I would definitely lose the shutters. Deco's idea of wood awnings or Bahama shutters is awesome! Doing the house in white would definitely modernize the look. I would change out the light fixture for something a bit more updated as well. Adding a boldly colored front door and some color to your landscaping will totally transform your house!

With the lighter color roof the paint choices are almost endless. Part of your answer lies with what look you are wanting to get (beachy, traditional, earthy, etc.). What are some colors that you like? When you paint I would do the garage door in the same color so it is not so noticeable. A pale gray with white trim and a really bright front door would work.

I would brighten it up with something yellow, turquoise, coral.....not gray! Cute house!

I think a pale, buttery yellow could work as well. Something like Sherwin Williams Vanillin.

My concerns with the awnings/Bermuda shutters would be darkening the house inside and we don't get as much light as I would prefer so don't think I want to go that route. I would love to lose the shutters we have but the house has like nothing going on so I would need to figure out something else to add interest but not sure what. Any suggestions here? We definitely want to do new landscaping as well, something brighter and more tropical.
The area I live in isn't really super tropical looking when it comes to the colors on the houses, i feel like doing an aqua or something on the shutters or door Might look weird in the neighborhood. I'm kind of more of a neutral kind of girl but agree with not wanting to go gray. Maybe if I could think of something else to do to add interest besides the type of shutters I have I could better think of a color..

Adding height to your landscaping can add the interest to the house without the shutters. Hibiscus, bougainvillea, Hawaiian Ti, all will add height and color to your landscaping. A trellis in the center with bougainvillea trained up it will give your wall lots of color and interest. The white bush that's in the center can be moved over to the corner a bit away from the house. You can also add fountain grass, pampas grass and a chenille bush. And if you're in Florida, I think you need at least one or two palms. I like the Christmas Palm and Foxtails. Neither get too big and they're self shedding, which makes them easier to take care of.
