Gonna be $$$ to reframe your roof and match the brick. Can you afford to increase the SOW by more than double?

There is brick underneath. This overhang was also in the back. The brick underneath was fine. I could never replace the brick. I am not sure how it looks without

Should I go with a different color for the facade shown in the picture. I was going to go with a look alike limestone. Do I need a contrast or use a different material.

Did you retain the roof or remove?

I could not tell since I did not follow the original thread.

I like it better without the roof, but could see some sort of detailing at roof line, so it doesn't feel unadorned.

I don't dislike the Mansard Roof - just so you know that I am a bit on the fence here.

I like it better with roof. Flat roofs are a problem.
