I am looking for a low cost way to refresh the exterior of my house.

Three sides are creamy yellow siding, which will stay. The front is currently a pink-ish brick with overflowing grout. We will be chipping off that overflow and most likely painting the brick.

The front totally lacks character so open to any ideas. There is beautiful landscaping at the front, and a new dark grey shingle roof. The door is currently black.

Paint colour used on the inside are included. I am trying to create a cozy, cottage-y feeling and getting rid of everything builder grade.
