Search split level remodels. Agree with Vistas, color choices should coordinate with the roof. I’d remove the shutters, beef up the window trim, paint the garage door to recede, new front door, etc. i know many will say not to paint the brick, but I would paint it to match the siding color you choose.
I’m sure you’ll get many helpful suggestions, and maybe some digital renderings, on this site. Good luck with your project.
