Typo? Do you mean vinyl siding….the horizontal application?

I’d paint (or replace) the siding with wood look, or wood color paint.

Stucco and all trim the same color as the roof..

That leaves the question of what color to paint the door (because all the yellow stucco is now charcoal).

I’d paint the door black and let the horizontal siding be the statement.

You literally only need a step stool to access your entire roof. I’m kind of jealous. Now, what was the question? 😉 Oh, yeah—paint colors, pop the entry, etc. Did you mean that the front door is going to be replaced or that it already has been replaced? The roof looks good, btw. Is it new?

Thanks Sammy and Judy - yes typo - it should be vinyl siding. and the front door has been replaced. It was a double wooden door more in a Victorian style replaced by a prior owner. The roof is new and a three foot ladder will get you on the roof. Thanks I will correct my information.

Would an orange door look appropriate? Orange is my favorite color... but maybe it should stay on my t-shirt?

That’s a cool house. The trim on the windows beside the door was really throwing me off at first. Why is that trim so different from all other window trim?

The color of the curtains (??) inside those two windows shows on my phone as a foresty green. How about that color for your front door? Or a not too deep burgundy like the flowerpots?

Hi Littlebug -The house is cool... we fell in love with the possibilities and are just wrapping up a large reno... We replaced the windows with high impact (hurricane rated) windows. That's why the white trim work is on the upper celestial windows waiting for whole house painting. The windows on each side of the door are also high impact but they have a privacy white glass which allows light to filter in. I have this privacy glass in the bathrooms and the home office (messy) as well. They do show up in photos with a greenish tint.... but not in person. I think some of that tint is also due to the existing non painted stucco entrance. I wanted to keep the door panes clear so I can see who is approaching. I never hang drapes and have only pull down blinds for the bedrooms when privacy is necessary. Some guest are freaked out but we have no neighbors that can see in and are in a very quite area. Thanks for asking and giving me feed back I appreciate your interest.

What color is the roof? Looks purple/blue/gray to me. That's the main issue to work with/around. Black should look good with it. Are you happy with the stone? No intention to paint, wash or stain it? Its the landscaping that bothers me; too much rock and too much like the present house color. That will come after the facelift though.

I would get a door that has a rectangular glass inset like the flanking windows. You need a better light, and it should turn on as soon as that area is in shadow.

I would go with grays on the stucco and lap siding that work with the roof.

Can you relocate the two palm trees to the other side of the drive? They obscure the entry.

I think orange would work on the front door, but why is the glass of the sidelights green?

I think you have potential to do a big turnaround on this home if you're ready to be a somewhat unconventional and perhaps lean into a bit of Asian style with it.

Everything is pretty bland. . .tan or charcoal. How about painting the door, window trim and the walls under the roof overhang in the front either turquoise or an aqua blue? Orange against the tan just looks hot, in my opinion. Living in the deep South myself, I suspect it would be more pleasing to look at the blue in hot weather than at the orange.
