Comments (4)I'm sure it will not hurt your feelings if I confess I like the bottom of your house much more than the upper. I would want to draw the eye more to the pretty details on the ground floor and away from that large gable. I made the upper a darker color and trimmed your landscaping. I can see that you love to garden but only ugly houses need to be completely hidden by plants. Show off your pretty brick. I love the soft contrasts in the brick colors. The other features I thought needed more contrast. I would use brighter trim. You don't have to tear down the timbering but just paint it the same as the stucco. I'm not a pro so my images are crude.

Comments (7)The overall look of your house is Tudor, but it has a lot of other elements tacked on that make it a mix of different styles. Thank the builder gods that you don't have a humongous double garage facing the front. Do not paint stone or brick or you'll be stuck with maintenance forever. Do not add shutters, which will add yet another style element to this blend of different styles. (The house below does have a double pair, though, if you're bent on them.) I'm not sure you can "update" something that doesn't have a single style. The current color actually does pull the stone and brick together. If you want the Tudor style to stand out, them do what Housson suggests picking a shade of the roof color for the timbers. Your stone entrance could use a little more drama with much larger light sconces. It's a shame the landscaping doesn't enhance the house as much as it could. A curved walkway farther out so that you could have more dramatic planting beds would have set off the house more impressively. What you have is fine but more suited to a smaller house....See MoreMock Tudor exterior update
Comments (6)If u r keeping windows then keep tutor elements. It looks charming. But if updating windows I could see going farmhouse I pass a 80s tutor that was just updated similar to yours They changed windows black and painted brick stucco all white and added the faux wood garage doors.
