my vote would be white.

my vote would be black.

(can't make this easy on you)

I would get rid of the fake shutters too.

Shutters look skimpy for these great windows. I would go with black railing.

I vote white railing

Black railing. No shutters and such a nice house deserves a better garage door

I vote black railing. Consider painting garage door black, too.. Agree with removing shutters.

Pretty house! Nice job. With the white pillars I say black railings, too. I know you didn't ask but window boxes under the front windows in black iron would tie in the iron nicely:)

Black. I think that will highlight your pretty steps.

Window boxes would be darling. I use the automatic waterer kind offered by several online garden shops and they do cut down on the work.

(Also agree, take off the shutters. They're just too small and unnecessary. Wish I could photoshop your house without them.)

I would use black iron railings with your white posts. The black iron will look more unobtrusive than white, is easier to maintain, and will coordinate with the other black elements on your home. You might consider painting your garage door black and the front door white to keep the focus on the front door where it belongs.

White column and white posts

Black Address numbers

Black Planters if you decide to accent the bottom of the steps with ornamental flowers

Thank u soooo much! Love it

@beverlyFLADeziner would u be able to show me with black railing?

Wrong choice Aly

If the railing looks like this and then all white

If you select metal balusters you could combine the white railing with the black balusters.

By gum, I do like the white better in the rendering. Hmmm...

Paint the garage door to minimize it. I like the idea of mixing black & white. Anything white will stand out. Black will recede and be hardly noticeable, esp. if you use skinny metal balusters.

Oops - paint the garage door the same color as siding, I mean. It will make it blend in with the house and not be such a focal point.

There isn't a post on this forum that doesn't suggest "minimizing the garage door". Why??? Do we not all have cars? Do we most all have multiple cars? Why deny that we have a garage door?

Here are three options for the garage door.

1. Black like shutters
   

Honestly, painting the garage door tan looks like the odd duck to me.

1. Tan like house

1. White with windows in the top panel

I do agree white is best

Remove the shutters and adda black railing to tie in the door and BTW a victorian door really does not work on that house.

I have the same problem I have white Colin’s I did have white railings I couldn’t decide so I left them off my house went from cream with white trim to black with very little white trim , dnt even notice railings gone , I want a very contemporary look and the railings made it look too busy hope this helps

Spell check …columns

"and the railings made it look too busy hope this helps"

The OP asked 2 years ago, I am sure it is long since finished.
