Pretty house needs no modernizing. That said, sage green looks great with that color brick.

A soft green or blue.

Yes P Banos, EVERYTHING a soft green... I'd get a Dark Green front door.

Is the current trim a light blue?

Current trim is white, shutters and stucco dormers are taupe

The sage green would look beautiful.
Really pretty house!

I would pick a light or bright colt for the front door. Since it’s on a porch, it’s shaded and sometimes dark, and a dark door will just disappear unless you put up some bright lights.

Beautiful home! I like the current light color of the shutters, etc, but was remembering this lovely house with similar brick, lots of pictures here:

The shutters are Urbane Bronze and the other trimwork is nice warm-toned gray/griege and white.

Your new front doors sound beautiful and will look lovely with the brick color. For everything else, I’d stick with lighter colors in the off-white family, like your shutters, but the same for everything (porch, and all other accents). Classic combo for this stately style.

Bless you for not destroying the brick! :)

I agree do not touch that brick and I too love this color with brick and i do not think the sutters work so maybe add a wider trim to the windows and if at all possible get rid of the arched window it does not belong on that house. As for modernizing there will be no real way to do that but embrace what you have please.
