The dark grey doesn’t seem great with the brick. Can that front window be painted? This is a great house for copper gutters, at least get dark brown downspouts to blend into the brick.

Yeah we've thought about dark brown too. Would like some pop of color for fun. What would you recommend to go with the dark brown? Flashing on the window will be replaced. Wasn't planning on painting window frames but something we could consider!

You have a brown roof, so pick a color that goes with that. The dark gray does not. Pick a color directly from your brick, and make sure it also goes with roof.

Red Brick Tudor Homes as examples of traditional color schemes

The white frame on the your windows is so very wrong for the house

I agree about the windows. That wasn't our doing lol. Roof has been replaced since that first photo, didn't catch that when I posted.

Could we see pic which includes the garage, since yo u say that color needs to figure into your color scheme? As others have said, browns + brick is more harmonious - however, it doesnt have to be a pure brown or chocolatey type of brown. A dark gray brown would work very nicely with both brick and the white of the windows - which is, yeah, unfortunate but the ship has sailed. The good news (if you want to think positively LOL) is that vinyl windows often fail within 20 yrs so when it comes to time to replace then we can think about other color options then. Lovely house BTW!

Follow the advice, above. Your “pop” of color should be in your landscaping. Annuals and perennials in pots and planted will add that. Your front door is gorgeous. I would not paint it; if needed, refinish it. A lovely house!

Yeah don't pay attention to the landscaping...work in progress and I would like to have a lot more color there 🙂 Thank you about the door! That was last summers DIY project and I love how it turned out. I've thought about painting the windows because the white is hard to ignore. I plan on having all the gables be board and batten. Here's the garage.

Well I have read/heard of various approaches to painting exterior vinyl incl. bonding primers and such - certainly do some thorough research !

Re garage - paint both skinny garage trim, garage eaves trim, AND both doors same dark gray-brown (or whatever color you are choosing for house trim. Emphasizing cheap skinny trim is never a good idea, by making doors same color the trim kinda goes away, becomes less noticeable. That same yellowy cream color could repeat elsewhere on the house, eg. the stucco 2nd floor triangle or window sashes.

Yep love those ideas for the garage. All the trim and gutters on the garage will be replaced like the house. Doors will be a future endeavor!

Trim should not pop. It is far from a focal point. The focal point should be the harmonious whole.
