I think that house is cute! If it were mine I would do grey roof, white siding, black shutters, grey garage door, and red door. :-)

I have no photoshop skills but tried to find images like that...

I do not have photoshop skills, but I believe your house would look wonderful with the brick painted the color of the siding, whether you choose the sage green or cream. If you choose sage green, I would suggest a white or nearly white metal roof with raised seams and matching shutters. If you choose cream for the siding and brick, I would suggest a sage green roof and matching shutters. White trim will look great with either color choice.

Care to chime in Groveraxle?

I agree with Claudianne that it look a bit unbalanced with the brick on one end and the white garage door on the other. Painting the garage door the same color as the siding might help, but landscaping might be a better strategy. A large shrub with red/purple foliage either between the window and garage or to the left of the driveway would go a long way to visually balance the brick.

Yep - I hate that empty spot cawaps. There used to be a large hydrangea bush there, but it struggled in the heat (western exposure).

I like the colors. I would go with a Driftwood color roof, plant a small tree or tall shrub in front of that "blank" space between the windows/garage), and replace the small windows on the brick side, with ones that are longer like the other side. All trim painted white. If it were a year-round house, I might go with the red front door, but for coastal vacation rental, I'd stick with white.

Hope you and the house are okay in coastal SC right now!

Thanks Anglophilia. Thank goodness we were spared. Our family/friends in the upstate and NC, not so much. I hadn't thought about matching the small windows with the double.
