Help! White and Black on Stucco/Stacked Stone
Rachel Gainsbrugh

Please advise- wanting a farmhouse look. Not overdone in this area. Thinking white with some black trim. I’ve identified a few areas in pic. Roof will have light gray shingles after being replaced.
Please let me know your thoughts, liberally.
Should I do the black window trims too?
Black Garage doors ok?
Would limewash work?

Craftsman Bungalow Stucco and Stacked Stone
Comments (4)You have a lovely bungalow. As others have said, the stone is inappropriate for your house. In the short term, I'd focus on installing a period-appropriate front door -- the one shown by houssaon is perfect -- and repairing and painting the stucco. Any color in the Sherwin-Williams Arts and Crafts Historic Color Collection would be appropriate when you paint. You might check out the book Bungalow Colors: Exteriors for ideas. Down the road, if it's in the budget, I'd consider replacing the windows with Arts and Crafts style windows with true divided lites. I highly recommend the book Bungalow Details: Exterior to guide you in your efforts....See MoreHELP,what shades of gray paint on stucco, board and bat stone and roof

Comments (2)We tried power washing with little improvement. There was water, which led to mildew and moss, which is gone now. What’s left are stains from that (I called them water stains for simplicity’s sake). Not sure if we’ll be able to get them off or not....See MoreHelp choosing Paint Colors with stucco house & white windows
Comments (0)I am trying to get a modern look on our house without being blinded by the color of the house. Or having the stark black and white. We live in southern California, so the sun is really intense. I wanted something that looked more modern though. Any help is appreciated....See Morecat_ky

4 years agoLovely home. If you have to spend money square those columns and add some window panels and details to turn the garage doors into carriage doors.
Also invest in a more unique roofing material like these below.
