What color is your house?

...or condo, or outside of your apartment, and what color would you change it to if you could?

The clapboard in he front and wooden shingles on the side are cream color, with a slight green tint. The trim is close to the same color. The doors are a very light sage green.

It's going to be a very long process because we need to replace some shingles, trim and a few other things, but we are going to start painting either in the Fall or Spring. We've decided on a dark gray for the clapboard in the front and a lighter gray for the shingles on the side. We're going with white trim. The day color is still up in the air, but I want a pop of color, so it may be a teal, blue or maybe even purple.

We didn't pick the colors but have really grown to like the blue with brick red and white trim.


Our front fence is pretty leany from the last big storm in May!

It's a tan color; on the yellow side of tan.  The shutters are a red color.  It's ok; not my favorite.  I'd probably go for a blue gray with navy shutters and crisp white trim.  Considering our house is less than 4 years old; we wont be changing it anytime soon!

Brick red, white and grey. 

l literally had to look at pix on the computer to see what colour the bricks were!! l'm getting old. The siding looks white but is pale grey. l'd love to repaint the front- and garage-door shiny black.View media item 128565

Slightly older picture, since I haven't taken any recently...but its a beige/pinkish color. The eavestrough has been fixed, lol and there is now a little white picket fence in front of the garden. I don't think I'd change it unless I HAD to..in which case I'd probably go with a grey tone.

Right now, ours is an ugly mint green (siding from the 60's or before) but we've bought new siding to do the entire house this summer/fall. And, it's robin egg blue. It was the cheapest of the "good" sidings available and I was worried about it....

but, this makes me feel MUCH better! Your house actually is beautiful. I'm going to steal your color scheme...we were going to go with white trim and black shutters, but the red accent really stands out. Using blue and white with a little bit of red is better that black and blue (a giant bruise).

Ours is tan with a terracotta roof and medium brown wooden balconies. The window / French door frames are white and the front and back doors glass.

This isn't mine but it's very similar. Red brick and cream at the front......I couldnt be bothered to get mine out of Photobucket  

We have a blue bi-level with black shutters and a red front door.

Mine's beige with white trim and red shutters and doors (except the back door which is new and we haven't painted yet) I'd ike to re-paint it either a darker beige or a brigher one - currently it's one of those in-between colours and I'm not terribly fond of it.
 

My house is green and white. 

Ours is a tan color with white trim.  Color is called "interface tan" and we just love it.   Here's a picture taken not long after it was painted.

Brick, white trim, black shutters and red front door.  Black copper guttering and black roof.

Very pale yellow (almost a pale tan) siding, grey shingles roof, soft, medium-green shutters, and white gutters. I've accented the front with some black metal garden fixtures. Our deck has medium-grey flooring, and white railing.

I'd like to re-paint the green shutters--any suggestions? We have a white front door, btw. I thought black shutters would look nice; DH hates the idea.
