Can you post a better picture of the house straight on? This one is so in the shadow dim. I would remove the shutters to start.

I would just pick one of the neutrals here -- get a handful of sample chips in the gray and tan zone, and see which you like. They will go with the wall as well as the components of the wall go with each other. Quirky but fun!

I live in a very midcentury neighborhood, and there are several houses like this one. I honestly think the ones with painted over stone look the best. the color is so varied, it's too patchwork. usually the color scheme chosen is white for the wood, and a dark neutral for the stone -- like charcoal or muted navy. plus a fun bright color for the door.

but I don't know if they had a different kind of stone to begin with -- since you mentioned some of yours is smooth. if your'e curious about paint or whitewashing, call a house painting company and ask for their advice.

anyway you could take a picture of one of the houses with the painted stone? i'd love to see what it looks like.

I am not a pro, but acm has the right idea, methinks: Pick a neutral color from among the stones. I agree with that assessment of the stone wall, too: quirky but fun!

I think a new roof and a paint job should be a lot higher on the priority list right now than the rocks.

As well as the forest to the right of the picture that is beginning to consume the garage.

I see a pale yellow or tan to tie the rock into the house

thank you! that's amazing! what did you use to make the mock-up?

Don't paint the stone, you are living in a piece of folk art. Agree to pick a tan or yellowish, or grey for the wood and then see if you like the stone, I think you will. The door will never be as fun as this stone. Save the money for other projects that are needed.

Here are some more options.

I like Thunder, Storm and Kendall the best.

Also, when you install foundation plantings the stone will be less visible.

I like the Beigewood (first one) from houssaon but all look super!

I like Kendall...like all look very nice!

Nice! I like Kendall Gray and Storm the best for your home but all of the colors houssaon shows work.

I used MS Paint. It's a lot of cut and paste.

I know I said previously that the stone would look better painted, but these mockups look really good. I agree with the PP that you should concentrate on updating the roof and siding first. if you still hate the rocks, then they could be addressed.
