The garage door, gutter and window trims are woodland grey. Was thinking about painting the roof woodland grey as well and the bricks lexicon half? Or leave it? Thanks in advance!
Personally , I think its too dark and foreboding now , and I suspect that with the letterbox in woodland now too , it would look even 'heavier' . To lighten the look , a white mailbox and even something as basic as a white frame around the garage door will break that dark look just a bit .
And a 50cm wide garden along 'this side' of that path with a variety of low plants in a mix of colours and textures would definitely help . That plant between the 2 windows just blends in , and you actually have to look to see it , whereas if it was planted 'this side' of that path you'd see it way easier .
I'm not a fan of painting bricks , nor terracota for that matter . The main thing you see on the roof is the solar panels , so although going a grey will tie in better , it is halfway there already .
Just my preference would be towards lighter trim , and a garden ( and a lighter letterbox ) .
I love it, paint the roof to match, don’t paint the bricks , they look great with the woodland grey and the white shutters, paint the front door to match, add a light under porch, some gorgeous planters, maybe later you may want to add a more modern letter box to compliment the house… gorgeous.
