What type of siding are you planning to use? Light gray like the brick mortar or a light sage. Remove the shutters. Paint the door 1 color.

I agree with jck910.

Don't paint the brick.

Would you be up to removing the brick arches and replacing them with a flat wood support and square columns?

3pinktrees-thanks so much! Im actually in the Northeast-Upstate NY to be exact...in a very country area! ILoveRed-thank you, I’m glad you got to see it! I had no idea this thread even still existed :). It’s amazing, as it took me 5 years to build and I’ve been in it for 5 years (and I am still not finished) so this thread was started about 1 year into it! shwshw- thank you as well-my goal was to build a simple, small, cottage like home :) Did you see the rainbow in the one pic? :)

I'm on board with jck910. If you wait long enough, I believe it is Patricia Caldwell who will post her usual picture of light red bricks with a sage color.

Kendrah, I’ll go ahead and post PC’s photo. That is, a different shot of it. The color could be nice with the op’s brick.

Here’s something similar with brick.

Alaina, your brick is really nice. I wouldn’t touch it. Both the brick and roof look warm, so keep that in mind for siding colors. Do consider removing the shutters on your particular windows.
