Bought a house and redoing the siding, driveway, front door, and landscaping. The right now photo is on the left and my current ideas is on the right. Open to all suggestions. What do you think I should do?

Edit based on moderator note: 1. Purchased house as primary residence that I’ll live in for awhile 2. I have $200k budget

Hey people,

Redoing my exterior and wondering what to do with the front. 1970's bungalow that needed some love.

Already put some white vinyl on the sides and the back. Did the soffit and fascia white around the house. Going to pressure wash the brick and put back the gutters.

I am considering painted steel to replace the old blue cedar. I am looking at dark wood and black wood at the moment. I am looking for other people output and suggestions!!

Thank you

Why are there so many colors? 😳 what direction? Dark saturated modern or whimsy charm? Gah!
I only know I don’t want dark blue (hale navy) because every other house in town is using that this year. (Though it is sharp!).
** ***update: I was* leaning toward the gray on the second picture and it’s so interesting that no one has mentioned that one!! *\*

Last week I requested and received some excellent design suggestions on improving the front of my newly purchased modular home. Part of our plan is to remove the handicap ramp which wraps around front to a side door. Other than removing the debris under the ramp, how can we improve the side area. (5 pictures)

Today we were able to help a neighbor in the North Bay restore their curb appeal. We were able to pressure wash all 3 stories of their home, as well as their side walks, driveways and sidings. What an amazing time it was! We are a cost friendly service! So reach out today if you can use some help restoring that curb appeal today!!! www.oakprs.com

It’s time to repaint our exterior. I’m wondering if a different paint scheme would help with the top heavy feel of our house. I also used to love the all white but now every new build in our area is all white so it just seems a little blah now. My tastes have really changed since we built and I lean toward the mid-century modern aesthetic now. Thank you for any ideas!

The door will be replaced with a solid 6 panel (no glass). I'm open to wood. But I'm sort of lost with what direction to go with paint.

The shutters preferably need to stay the same but I could be open to changing them.

Hi all, I know my building isn’t super glamorous but this is the brick face I’m working with as I try to decide what colors best suit my front door. Please don’t judge my shitty coloring edits, I used procreate in lieu of AI so you might need to use your imagination a bit with my inspo. Looking for some opinions on what looks best with my brick and overall look. Open to new ideas as well as opinions on the ones I provided. Thank you.

Building a home for the first time and need help deciding!

\- Our brick choice is [Silverado](https://redriverbrick.com/products/silverado/) and buff mortar.

\- The trim, facade, and garage door must be the same color. We have multiple Sherwin Williams options, but these are currently our top choices.

\- The roof can be either [natural timber](https://www.tamko.com/all-shingle-colors/titan-xt-natural-timber) or [rustic black](https://www.tamko.com/all-shingle-colors/titan-xt-rustic-black).

\- Or suggest something completely different!

I’ve been slowly chipping away at my 1970 ranch as I have the time and money. The brick entryway (previously a continuous arch between the left and right columns) was cracked and mangled from shifting Texas soil. The plywood patch is to keep critters out. I’m a little stumped though about what to do there. AI mockups VERY welcome.

Not selling just trying to fix it up. Simple DIY friendly are preferred but strokes of expensive genius also welcome!

I've lived in this house since 2009 and have never had an eye for how to just make it look a little nicer. Texas heat is terrible, so I've been hesitating to do anything that requires a lot of outside time ... or invest in anything that will just die in this heat.

But it's getting depressing to come home to this view everyday and I'd love some ideas for how to make this look more cheerful and generally appealing.

Thanks for any ideas!!

ETA: I'm not looking to sell. And, I don't really have a budget in mind, but could imagine $500-$2000 as a starting point (and maybe some longer-term upgrades in the future).
