Your house is going to blend in very well with it's surrounds once the timber has silvered off, if you choose to use colours like Colorbond Woodland Grey, Dulux "Pavings Stone" (left hand side of colour swatch in the image far below) and/or Dulux "Grey Mountain". Other darker colours that will work well in this setting include Dulux "Cambridge Hall" and Dulux "Nomadji" (mentioned before). These greys don't necessarily blend in with the fresh timber but look fantastic as the timber ages and the building is seen as a whole (see image far below). "Paving Stone" is a versatile medium, warm grey that looks really good as a render. It also works well as a neutral internal wall colour in rooms with lots of natural light. In the following image, Dulux "Grey Mountain" was used near the timber work and "Woodland Grey" on the garage walls to help the garage door become less noticeable. Remember that colours generally appear lighter than the sample when applied to external walls and darker when applied to internal walls.

I would let your natural elements shine ..match your wall colour to your classic white laminate and be lazy and paint the same for the ceilings so not to distract from your features or you could use your Caesar stone Urban as an inspiration and choose that colour as wall colour..ie go a bit lighter ..since you can play around with the colours as your room has lots of natural light .. Urban is a nice colour..brownish grey.. personally I'd just go white..

Restore the facade. Don't render as you'll loose the fabulous brickwork. Just re-point it. Do maintenance on the roof as needed. I'd pressure clean then see what it comes up like. If it's still a bit ordinary then paint it. I would do a bit of investigating on other original colour schemes before choosing charcoal, even though I admit the charcoal does look really good! By the way we render as we don't want to pay brickies to really use their craft so we buy cheap bricks and render. Render does look fine when used as a feature rather than a whole facade. Don't compete with neighbours make your house more desirable by keeping its character. I would however consider spending some good money on the landscaping. There are some superb gardens on these wonderful homes around the inner suburbs of Melbourne for example and would work great with yours.

The white letterbox , and the shrubs , looks really nice . But do you want your bedroom to look like the inside of an esky ? The roof is white , surely you want some colour somewhere on the walls ? The existing walls look a creamy beige , the blind looks beige , the curtains look a fawny beige . Maybe I'm oldschool , but I like 1 wall as a feature wall with at least some colour , and the rest a plainer version of that . For example , I have a warm blue room , with slightly darker wallpaper on the wall behind the headboard ( heading towards a royal blue ) with a gold stripe around 5mm wide , and then a light blue and another gold stripe only about 1mm wide either side of that ( well , 6-8mm away ) . That probably sounds like something your gran would have had , but it actually looks modern , and interesting . And again they aren't trendy any more , but the blinds are warm natural wood venetians . I'm definitely not suggesting that , nor ruling it out , but IMO any white room outside an art gallery is lacking life , lacking colour , lacking imagination -- even if you add some colourful art or duvet colour ( I think you Aussies call them dooners ? ) or rug , its still a white base .
