I'm a vivid white fan. There are whites that are red based (which will throw off a pink), yellow based (throwing of, cream) and black / grey based (throwing off blue). Vivid white is black based. The blue-white, to me, is crisp and clean.
You don't want to show off the construction details of this house by using a light colour which will throw very strong shadows. Hide it all with a dark grey over all. But if you are determined to paint it white, then the best white is "Half Concrete" by Resene Paints from New Zealand.
