I honestly can't see the house for all the overgrowth . You will need to clean up that landscaping in order to paint and why a differnt color of trim thatn what you have .It certainly looks like a ranch except for that odd little peak on the right . What is the purpose of that ?It looks like the odd man out so what is it a different color and style . The stone is interesting but hard to get a feel for where it is.What style of houses do you like ? I did go to your idea books but nothing to give me any idea of the style of house you like. This could be a nice ranch style out in the country . It could with some work go in the MCM direction . So we need info from you

I like the yellow color? Do you know what Its called and by whom. I am looking to paint my house too in a pale creamy yellow.

I would paint the whole house White, including the trim, BM Super White

remove the shutters, and paint the front door a color you love...

I would choose a bright Cobalt Blue.

Yes I think a big cleanup of the landscaping - it just sort of seems like things put in the ground without much of a plan? I would also remove everything in the yard and on the house and then see. I like Lyn's color suggestions. Maybe consider a slightly creamy white so it's not so stark against the pretty stone? You could do cream and then a door maybe in caponata or another eggplant shade? Or a deep cranberry?

Thank you all so much. This is actually my mothers house so my idea book’s probably wouldn’t be very beneficial. This house is very much a ranch style home. Sitting on 1000’s of acres of pasture land with a 100 year old barn’s all over the property. My mother loves to mix styles. Victorian/Southwest/Rustic mix which makes my head hurt trying to help her with colors. She has mentioned blues/yellows/grays with a creamy trim. If we leave the yellow (I am not sure of the color, it’s been 20 years since she last painted), used a creamy off white trim, would a natural stained wood (she mentioned cypress or pine) look ok on the porch columns?
