In an older home like yours, which is possibly a post-war home with some art-deco influences and a 1980's extension to the rear a contrasting gutter and fascia is the way to go. When these elements are contrasted it visually slims down the width of the fascia and gutter. The same colour for both does the reverse and makes it seem larger and heavier.

With your terracotta roof tiles and red brick I would go with the an olive green for the gutters to counterbalance the orangeness of the other elements and co-ordinate with the front blinds. Don't forget to paint the front balustrade to match your lighter fascia colour.

I reckon a crisp white for the windows and fascias and front door , leave the primrose as it looks like you are the only people that can see that crime scene haha , and do the gutters in a forest green . I'd probably look at re-dying or replacing the green fabric too -- it will look faded against the new crisp white and green .

A feature garden or large pot or a specimen tree in a similar deciduous green will add a touch of class and continuity to your house too -- conifers are off trend , but you can help jumpstart their comeback haha
