Purple, bright blue, yellow. I live close to Lunenburg Nova Scotia and bright colours are everywhere and amazing combinations are plenty! Be bold! haha Let us know what colour you choose.

IMO, white shutters. I also suggest you beef up the posts…too fragile looking for your house. There are many choices and easy to do…you just wrap over the existing ones. https://buymbs.com/p-7229-fypon-38-non-tapered-vinyl-column-wrap.aspx?vid=17003&utm_source=Google&utm_medium=Product_CPC&utm_campaign=17003&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI7sK_oPOy5AIViI3ICh32uQVuEAkYBSABEgLdhvD_BwE

Agree with the comments above. I like a brick ranch home like your home :) If I were in your shoes I would remove the chain link fence (per worthy's comment) or have it "painted" black so it disappears. Not install shutters or remove them if you have them already on your home. I can't really tell from the posted pic if they are there or not - I actually don't see them but the pic is dark. Landscaping is huge. it makes all the difference in the world as to how your home is presented to you and others, Take time to find a good landscape designer, check houzz, to work with you. BTW, landscape design also includes hardscape (driveways and walkways). Nice home.

You have a beautiful home! Does your home only have that one set of shutters? If so, I would remove them entirely especially since you may paint the house. Here is a brief but good article on shutters and why your current shutters don't work with your double window. https://www.lifeofanarchitect.com/residential-architecture-101-shutters/
