Here is another go at it following some previous suggestions. Stone is now gone, one white corner is removed and the white is toned down a bit. Plan for the stone was to hide some of the exposed foundation on the left side but I will just add another horizontal board or two on the bottom to do that.

I temporarily painted my garage door SW Creamy while waiting for my house painter. I couldn't look at them peeling anymore. Anyhow, while I have used SW Creamy in the interior successfully, it was a tiny bit too warm on my fading sage colored house. It was a good exercise to help me determine my final house color. I ended up using SW Alabaster. It's very forgiving. It has just a little bit less warmth than SW Creamy, yet handles the warmer color of my warm stone base nicely. It's not as stark a white as Pure White. It's just a hint warmer and coordinates with you brick base. I ended up painting the body of the house SW Alabaster in a Satin and the trim in SW Alabaster in a semi-gloss. It picks up the trim without shouting at you. If you want to go all white, this is the white color and technique that I would suggest. Have you considered painting the brick? Lots of people hate painted brick. I had a home that had painted brick and it was the easiest surface to maintain. A simple power wash and it was done. I love painted brick. To each his own.

You could also replace the lattice (which doesn't suit the house style) with a wood, "fencing" style - ie horizontal or vertical, narrow planks. If stone doesn't work out for some reason. I would stain the steps, that wood replacement, and any wood front door a darker brown than the orange-y roof, or a grey-brown that is compatible with the roof, or a darker version of whatever you put on the body of the house. Use the same color on your trim around the windows and doors. My goal is to reduce the visual impact of the large orange-y roof by bringing complementary but not matching colors. Of course, you might like the roof color - I just don't, but I have seen good use of colors that work well with it. If you decide to address the stucco, I suggest that you choose a lighter color for the house, and a darker shade for the huge garage - to make the house stand out more, and the garage visually recede a bit. Two nice planting areas that follows the curves of the driveway approaches to the garages, will also reduce the visual impact of the garages. Plant it with a mix of smaller/lower perennials and evergreens where it is more in front of the house, and add a few taller shrubs (not any that will get too big or require a lot of pruning to keep in check) and/or small trees - maybe even a dwarf fruit tree if you'd like - in front of the garages. That will also help to balance out the large tree there. It's a beautiful specimen but hides most of the house.

So the garage doors draw the eye because they are light and your front door is black. IMHO, trying to add brick veneer and get both sides matching will be difficult and expensive, and may not ultimately look good. If the bricks don’t match and you limewash, your contractor will really need to be an expert to get both sides identical. You will also have to paint or replace the garage doors because the light color makes the house look off balance. I would paint the brick the same color as the siding. Siding holds paint well, so you can actually paint your house a whole new color if you want. You can paint your shutters too, and your front door. If you could pick any color in the world for your house, what would it be?
