As far as paint for the house I would suggest either a dark brown or dark grey. I would normally not suggest dark but the size of your house allows for a dark exterior and it would make the wood work really stand out. It will also give you a more modern look.

Dark Bronze. Somewhere between black and brown--dark bronze. The color of tree bark--but I am still open for suggestions as I am in the deconstruction stage. I am drawn to dark colored houses with dark trim. The only thing that has been determined are the Anderson windows with dark bronze trim.

Thank you for the suggestions. @George - yes the house is a bit of a circus! It was built in the 80's and at one time was a nice looking A frame with a covered deck across the front. It looked cute back then. Since then the previous owner filled in half the deck upstairs and down giving it a weird look. Even worse is that they worked around the existing support posts when they installed the new windows on the extension so one window is larger than the other. Lots of work to do down the road but we just recently bought it as a summer home so for now will try to hide some flaws with a paint job.

greige with that particular green roof and black trim sounds really dull. but besides white, I'm at a loss of what I'd recommend for your house. I'm not a pro, so I tend to be biased to a specific set of looks. I do like the inspiration pic that Lady North posted above: cool grey with white trim. first of all, what is your design style? do you have any inspiration pics? when you google "green metal roof" notice the homes have brighter green roofs than yours, so it's not exactly a fair comparison. next steps I recommend: 1. have roof cleaned well so you can see what the color actually is (right now the dirt is making it look dull) 2. take new photos and ask us again! (for best outcome, shoot on an overcast day so you don't get shadows and glare.) just curious: is the outcome of our answers going to stop you from buying the house? if it's a solid house with a good layout, and you like the location, go for it. don't let this exterior stop you. no matter what, it's fixable. also.... once you move in you might find that painting is not your #1 priority. so you have plenty of time to think this through.
