I’m not a fan of the Tudor look. Would love some exterior siding, maybe shaker?, with some color. Regular siding, a blue. Shaker, more taupe or green. The front porch/door needs some excitement too.
The house looks like it has great bones and a great lot. Good luck!

Any of these work?

Or these?

Get rid of the fake Tudor trim. You need a way to emphasize the strong horizontal lines.

Will horizontal siding make the house look too long?

There's something pleasing and. yet, displeasing, about the new design. Can't quite put my finger on it. The horizontal siding and the hexagonal window seem almost neo-colonial, the stone base seems Pennsylvania Dutch (maybe) and the pattern of the lights and paneling on the garage doors seems odd. In some ways the proposed design already seems dated. The truss in the large gable seems an afterthought and really seems dated. The unequal triple windows on the lower and main floor don't look particularly good in the original house. Don't think they should be used on the new design either. Think this one should go back to the drawings board. Not meaning to be hurtful but since you posted on Houzz I'm assuming you are wanting real opinions.

Appreciate your suggestions! We haven’t started reno yet so still time to change things! What would you do differently? What kind of garage door would you use?
