I would really like a more traditional southern look with a modern twist.

DEFINITE NO!!!!! To shutters. Get a better picture, please, the entry needs help. Nobody can really SEE what you have beyond that

You have no windows shutters would fit. Landscaping would bring a more modern look. The choice of plants could give the southern charm you want.

I dont think you want this house, lol. it looks very nice, and there is nothing "dated" about it. Paint the trim, paint the garage door, add larger column post, refresh the landscape.

Here are a few suggestions:

Beef up the columns and darken the white portions.

IMO painting brick is a forever upkeep and I also think it instantly devalues the house . I do agree the siding color is not good . Some refresh of the landscaping for sure and I love this color with brick for the siding and garage door but I think some glass like in the pic would be nice in the garage door and no shutters

I certainly wouldn't paint the brick. It's lovely as it is. I think if you got rid of the overly clipped tree and shrubs and replaced them with something lower growing it would frame your lovely house better.

I would change out the porch columns to single more substantial column on each side. Consider changing up the landscaping to include some flowers and something more interesting than blob shrubs. A darker color on the stucco might be nice as well. I would also do a different front door color.

If shutters say "southern" to you, then this is not the house for them. Columns and landscaping are the places to make upgrades.
