Is the exterior cladding or real timber boards? It looks like cladding. If so painting it will turn into a future maintenance nightmare.

I like the roof and could live with the cream exterior. I'd replace the windows or at least frame them with timber. Then paint the front door your fav colour.

Agree. A cute house a little zing will go a long way. A nice garden with natives will elevate

It's not the exterior paint colours that matter so much when the garden is not landscaped!! Spend your money on landscaping instead and add some nice awnings to the windows to make them look finished off.

Alishia,
Unfortunately, you may have to change the windows as they will be too difficult to paint or high maintenence once you start.
I agree with bigreader for an option of at least framing the windows with a nice timber that will allow the windows to "pop" a little but having chosen woodland grey, you have made a big change to your colour scheme and framing the windows won't solve the problem of being brown.
A nice dark Colourbond Ironstone would brighten and modernize the home but then the windows would have to be changed to a lighter grey perhaps to go with the colour scheme.
Lots of $$$$$ though for this sort of project.
I hazard a guess looking at the photo's, is that you live in the country, as this home has a typical country look.
Best of luck with whatever you chose to do.
Cheers,

To minimise costs, frame your windows, I would place a canopy above the front door (if this is the front door near the garage - if it isn't don't do) to draw your eye and paint the front door with strong wow colour - even if it is a few shades darker or lighter to what you have chosen for your window trims/roof line. Maybe large number near door also will drawn your eye to the door. Landscaping around the front will also add punch/wow - you don't have to do everywhere - but at least at the front and then you can work your way to the rest of the garden, but keep the rest of the lawn mowed (even if they are weeds) and edges trimmed. Look at a couple of other houses and pretend you might buy and note what your eye is instantly drawn to... go back to your house and note what you are instantly drawn to.... do you want to be drawn to those features? If not, make them blend and highlight the areas you want. I have just had another look at your photos - is the front door near the garage door or it is the one on the left hand...... if left hand don't place canopy at the garage end but would place some large planters (large plants too) to accentuate the front door entrance - you would have the space - but again do some landscaping in that area (the large pots can be placed in the garden beds (on a large paver) and smaller plantings around them, make the front door pop and place something i.e. large number on the wall next to the door. If the door next to garage is garage entrance not front door, then blend that door with the exterior (unlike what I had initially said when I first thought it was the front door). Tip - Just cause something is colourbond - you CAN paint it - don't think you are stuck with that initial colour thought when installed. i.e. paint your facia and gutter same colour and that will make it wider. (I have personally painted cutters and downpipes many times (when I want to change colouring). Just cause downpipes are connected to your guttering doesn't mean they need to be the same colour - I would colour them the same as the wall colour to make them blend - downpipes are not a feature. Good thing about paint, you can paint it again. A lot of paint shops will have colour consultants.
