of the colors you have in your photo, try the likeable sand. I think it would blend better with the stone. Paint the front door a fun welcoming color, but paint the garage door the color of the house. I like your home, too. Congratulations. you have plenty of time to play with color til spring and painting/ planting weather arrive . enjoy.

Thanks for your suggestions. So what do you think about a trim color? I would like to go with something other than the matching green for the roof.

Many thanks for the responses. Decoenthusaste,Can you explain what you mean by "The portico looks undersized for the volume of the house and the entire new entry looks quite craftsman; not a compatible look for the style of the building." How would you increase the portico? I did not want a flat roof as it does not keep with the country feel of my home. Do you have a photo of what you had in mind? What do you mean by craftsman? thanks

Gutters, soffits and downspouts aren't features you want to call attention to, so you should get them in colors that blend in. The vendor is only going to have certain colors prefinished. See if you can get samples to look at next to your brick. You'll probably end up with something tan. If you're interested in a green in BM, I used Nantucket Gray on my previous house. It's actually green instead of gray.
