I like your colors a lot. Keep them. We had a realtor who specialized in staging come and look at our house. She liked the lighter (not pastel) neutral shades we already had, but didn't like the darker ones (dining room had a navy blue below chair rail). Her reasoning was that you want to give the impression that the new owners could move right in without changing a thing. Although many on this forum would not rule out a house based on paint color, young families who ae very busy, do not want to take the time to do one thing. She said you mainly want a sense of flow from space to space - nothing jarring. It was recommended to replace different shades of carpeting in bedrooms with one neutral shade or hard wood, if affordable. I'm sticking to colors on the SW Nomadic Desert/Latte strips for the downstairs living area including foyer and hallways, except painting the kitchen Clary Sage (after removing the wallpaper). Upstairs in the bedrooms, I'm going with SW Krypton in some rooms and SW Comfort Gray in the rest. We have hardwood under our carpeting upstairs, so will remove the carpeting and clean up the wood as well as we can. New owner may want to recarpet or may not like the carpet we chose if we spent the $$$ to recarpet. Giving the impression that the home is spotlessly clean and well maintained and free of clutter is very important. Your house looks wonderful and I'm sure you will not have trouble selling it.

I'd buy a house with pink shag carpet if that was the only negative. It amazes me how many folks can't look past what can be easily changed for very little money. Things like carpet and paint. I just changed an entire room in my home (just for the sake of change) for $40.00. That included wall paint and trim paint. The carpet in my sunroom is a blue/green berber. Instead of changing the carpet out, I changed the wall and trim colors to compliment the carpet. In a million years, I would have never guessed that a color called cherokee rust with white trim would compliment blue green carpet!

I like the tiles better after their close up. I love blue, so I would do them with blue -- and agree that navy or deeper blue so the room has a calmer feel. A brighter blue would give a much higher energy to the room. Down the road, I think you will find them to be pretty versatile. Just not as easy to work into a club feeling.

Congratulations on your new home - how exciting! I would not paint the walls grey/blue/green due to the orange/yellow wood. Those colors would look nice in your home but may feel a little old-fashioned to you. In my opinion, grey has been overdone and it's time for something fresher. I would paint both the walls and the wood trim the same soft white to give it a more modern feel. The trim is not very substantial so just paint it out altogether. Bring in color with your furniture or art. When you eventually replace the flooring you can think about changing the trim too. Look at Benjamin Moore OC-117 Simply White, or perhaps OC-118 Snowfall White or OC-149 Decorator's White.
