I feel that if you paint the trim around the window, then you should paint all other trim. It would look odd otherwise and honestly, it would look like only parts of the home have been freshened up. There's a house I drive past that apparently buys a run of siding as the owners' budget allows. So it's been a slowly disappearing face of Tyvek wrap for the past 4 years. Personally. I wish they had just saved up over the years and done it all at once. So I also vote for just waiting until you can do it all at once. If I can barely tolerate/ignore the exterior of my house for 12 years, anyone can. I don't think the other responder was suggesting that you paint the garage door the same CURRENT color, but instead, once you do paint the stucco, make the garage the same color. I personally think cream colored house, or gray, with black trim would look sharp. Can you find more of those eaves and add them to the entrance at some point? Have no clue if it's possible, just a thought. Please make sure whatever siding you paint, you paint it all, not just what faces the street. Trim those shrubs too. Just saw that brick on the front, if that's the only place you have the brick, I'd budget for removing it. Looks ridiculous. Keep us posted.

I can imagine the siding painted a navy blue color, with creamy white soffits and trim that would compliment the brick. I know this image shows a tan siding instead of brick, but it gives you an idea of the palette.

I love the sage green trim around the lighter front door, RL Location!!! I guess I like the green and brown as those are the colours of my Dad's house in Maine and it looks so great in its surroundings. Classic is classic for a reason! I think the green trim would really complement everything. Sorry about the windows. I hope you didn't find my comment insulting as I didn't mean it that way. There are pains and stains for vinyl windows, btw, but I've never used them so no experience.

We are wanting to paint the side on our house but leave the brick as is for economical reasons. I am stumped on what colors to choose that will also compliment the brown brick and roof. I am wanting to do a darker siding color and a light trim color. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciate!!
