It would be better to take pictures when the sun is shining on the front of the house. I would stick with brown windows.

I'd (a) consider repainting all the brown parts of the house a lighter shade (coordinating with the brick tones), and (b) a brighter color for the front door, which is currently lost in all the brown. Then landscaping, for sure -- maybe a tree out in the large expanse of grass, and extending the plantings down along the walkway (and maybe even the drive)...

What a nice home! I would focus on landscaping and a brighter door color.

I think the roof would look a lot better washed. You can do a lot with landscaping. Plants a variety of bushes not too close to the foundation. Allow room to grow. Get flowering and evergreen. Also include perennials for seasonal color that comes back every year. Look for a good ornamental tree to plant out in the yard to frame the door. Continue plantings along the outside of the walkway and along the drive.

How do you wash a roof? What product is used?

Professionals clean roof. Or DIY. The best way to clean a roof if you have asphalt shingles is laundry strength liquid chlorine bleach and water. Do not use a pressure washer, which can loosen shingles and seriously damage your roof. Instead use sprayer attached to garden hose.

Some option for curb appealing.

I have never washed a roof in my life. Are people seeing something on the roof that I'm not seeing?

Thanks for all the comments.

@partim , the roof is a little blotchy is all. It's the price of having lovely trees (and well-worth paying).

It is a pretty house and I think just lightening up the body paint would do wonders for it. A non-asphalt drive would be a huge upgrade, but I know that's not always such an easy thing to do.
