Definitely no shutters due the size and style of the windows. I like the white trim. Are you keeping the current siding color?

Thanks Chloe! Yes- I don’t like it but not in the budget to change it at this point.

Here it is without

You are correct...everything you said about the shutters is spot on. Take them off and take of the pair at the front door and the ones over the garage.

They all need to go. I like your siding color and the white trim.

Thanks so much! Would it be weird to paint an accent color on the white triangle piece on the trim above the window?

Yes, the triangle is part of the trim...keep it white.Suggestion for front door and even garage door color...(I like the color of your siding).

Thanks elcieg- good advice and I do like that midnight dark gray/blue color

I vote for removing shutters.

The shutters on the door have to go NOW! The rest is 6 of one half doz. of another. The latest is no shutters and dark trim. Do what YOU like.

Agree no shutters, however, if you remove them from the front I think you need to adress the landscape. Your house will look very plain. It appears that you have a stone walkway (?) across the front ? Perhaps you need to landscape across the front of it.

This house has abundant architectural detail…no shutters needed..the front door( and maybe garage door??) could ..however….benefit from a pretty paint color,perhaps event the steps….to draw the eye to the entrance…adding a colorful rug…. even on the steps ….smaller matching rug/ treads… a periwinkle would be pretty

OR your favorite color…as I just remembered periwinkle not to your taste…you do have a lot of beige which i why I suggest a pretty pop of color on garage door as well..

Do keep the triangular pieces white. No shutters on the front door, either. A different color for the front door would be nice. It’s a very cool house!

Agree with K Laurence regarding the landscaping. The front lower window would be nice with something tall planted on each side...even large pots with vines on trellises.

I love the color and the white trim. I love the simplicity of the house without any shutters. I would suggest a new front door more in keeping with the antique style of the home, painted a color you love. Also I think a new garage door, if you can swing it, with black handles/hinge type trim would look great; I think the current garage door might be too modern a style for the house.
