That could be a cool modern house. Get rid of the shutters and truly terrible ‘Victorian’ front door. Paint all the non brick elements one color- iron ore or black fox would be my first thought. Leave the brick alone, replace the stamped concrete when you can with smooth. The brick columns are cool.

I agree the shutters have to go. And the stamped concrete!
I like the idea of painting the siding black and leaving the brick as is.

If you wanted to paint the brick I would probably say to go black as well.

I would not paint the brick. It's a nice rich color, just clean it.

Wrap the posts in a dark natural wood. (Like the photo)

Paint the siding Navy Blue and the trim black. leave the windows white, unless you are replacing them. then black windows. Remove the shutters. Stain the concrete.

I hate my house. How do I make it look like something completely different? There's an old song, "If you can't be with the one you love, honey, love the one you're with."

The house is pretty nice. The brick columns are an interesting feature. Find some love for your house.

Love my home. Just looking to give her a facelift. But thanks for the helpful comment

I’m not a fan of painted brick. Why take a low maintenance surface and make it high maintenance? Painting the siding a dark blue,green or the iron ore will tone it down nicely

The columns are very cool as is, but I am a MCM fan.

Agree they are cool. From comments so far, I’m rethinking covering them.

I too am a MCM fan so the pillars are fine . IMO painted brick instantly devalues a home not mention adds a ton of never ending maintenance .Remove the uselss shutters those do not belong on this house . I love the black for the siding and the windows . I do dilike drieways tha intefere with nice landscaping but I need to see that from further back to understand the whole lot where the house is .Too much missing info to really help I do agree do not try to make this something it is not unless you have the $$$$$$$$ to completely rebuild this perfect house . Just for inspo this is my fave for landcaping a MCM home but of course no circle drive , which BTW in your case needs to be paved too. I hav no idea what the stamped concrete looks like but that area seems to be just there with no plan. If a new roof is in the plan then black but if not then probably a darker gray not black for the items I wanted in black

Great advice so far - agree with removing the shutters and getting a fabulous front door- then I’d invest in wow landscaping that showcases the house

embrace its charming funky-ness :)

What you are calling columns look like walls. can you provide some better photos ao we can see the different elements including the walkway. that appears to be more of a large patio but its hard to decipher.

Painting brick is a good way to cover ugly colored brick. It is NOT high maintenance. Kendall Charcoal on my house has been fine since 2004.

I suggest you remove the shutters, cover the columns in wood, paint the siding in charcoal and trim in white with a colourful door. Hang a large pendant in the porch. Work on landscaping.

Painting brick devalues your home. instead, remove the shutters, get a new door, and add large landscaping shrubs.
