You actually do not have a lot of brick , so I would leave as is and work with it.

Thank you, @Celery. Visualization, Rendering images. Are you able to do a mock-up of painting the house white, keeping the brick, and black trim? Any app I've tried fails miserably. Yours looks great!

Remove the bushes across the front, find a paint color that works with the brick as is, try not to outline the portions of the house with contrasting trim because it chops up your home and makes it look smaller.

Thank you, @decoenthusiaste - I've been thinking the same thing about the bushes across the front. They are overgrown and just look sloppy.

Regarding your comment "try not to outline the portions of the house with contrasting trim..." - are you referring to the long vertical trim on each side of the upper-floor windows? And the long horizontal trim piece below the windows? If so, I agree - I was thinking in terms of trim, to just do the trim pieces around the windows a warm white/cream color. And then perhaps the facia/roofline trim black.

mnnnnnnnnn...not sure if it works

Also, if I am NOT painting the brick - paint color #2 is the color I am considering for the house, with a warm white around the windows, and black for the fascia/roofline.

here is brown trim

I don't care for the trim boxing up the house into squares and rectangles, celery. Can you paint it out?

Sure i can .It was OP asking me to try.

Yeah, I just don't know if white is the color we should go with...unless we were painting the brick along with it and since I'm not 100% sold on it, I don't think we should go that route. But I absolutely agree with you, @decoenthusiaste - I don't like how the trim chops up that space unnecessarily.

How do you guys feel about paint color #2?

Thanks again to both of you for your help!

@Patricia Colwell Consulting - that's really pretty! Do you happen to know the name of that color?

I really like the combination from Patricia. That sage-y green can look great with certain brick. I think your #2 color looks good with the brick (and mortar). Remember you need the color you choose to work with the roof, too. Computer screens can be iffy, but your #1 choice looks somewhat similar to the sage from Patricia. on my screen.

For your house I would suggest paint the brick.

@Norwood Architects - sell me on it. :) Any color scheme ideas?

You might want to try Sherwin-Williams Clary Sage - 6178

Or

Benjamin Moore Cape May Cobblestone

I kind of like the Cape May Cobblestone. It looks like it might blend with the brick mortar. It also looks warmish to avoid clashing with the roof color. Your brick is a nice feature.

Megan I am not sure but take a copy of the picture to a paint store I am sure you will find something close Clary sage is close but a bit too kahki for me.

I am hoping to see it with the brick painted white. I have a brick house with a similar colored roof that I don't know what to do with. That grey green is perfection.

My PS reads Patricia's paint as Heather Gray BM

Not Heather Gray maybe closer to Flora BM
