Help with exterior paint/ curb appeal
Comments (1)I would consider painting the window area and the surrounding--pilasters, they are technically, I guess--an accent color. Maybe to body of the house could be one color and the window areas a darker shade on the same strip. I would probably paint the garage door to match the house color and paint the Front door a bright accent color since right now it is hard to actually see where it is....See Morehelp with curb appeal: exterior paint & new garage door
Comments (9)I'm one that believes that a real budget needs to be allocated for garage doors that are a large part of your facade. We have a front facing garage and a detached rear garage. We did custom Spanish wood garage doors for our spanish style house. People would stop their cars and comment that they couldn't believe new garage doors could make such a change in the look of a house. We used Ranch House Doors, linked below, and they have lots of photos on their site that might spark some ideas.

Comments (9)Love the house. Will the new roof be gray? Lots of color options with gray roofs. Is the brick shown all of it? If so, I'd probably remove it since it's not adding much interest. I don't have color recs for the gray siding. You just have to get sample cans to test some out. Personally, I wouldn't go too dark. A soft, dove gray would be pretty with white trim. Tons of options for door color, including red. Your shutters are actually too small for the double windows. Each shutter should be half the window's width. Up to you but a wide trim around the windows would be another choice. One thing you might think about is a garage door with windows across the top that mimic the panes in your other windows. Would be really nice....See MoreNeed to update this 90s exterior and increase the curb appeal! Help!
Comments (8)I don't know the purpose of that arch. It was originally designed that way, and yet nothing goes there. There is an inset shower window but up under there, so maybe the thought was to hide it from the curb. But, I had not considered actually putting something there - a fountain or something sculptural would be quite lovely there. And, I am thinking about a single door with sidelights too. I was just looking a pictures of a house with a wood and glass door, and maybe doing wood on the garage to complement it, though not sure about adding wood to the facade....See MoreCelery.
