What do you think of the new house color so far

Ok this is just one coat of primer tinted the same as the paint. We still have time to make adjustments. There will be shutters on the 2 small windows and a new door. We are thinking of doing the them a deep red/burgunday. My only concern is that the garage which is to the left of the breezeway facing front will be white. Will that look bad?

What are your HONEST opinions...good or bad I can take it!!!! I'd rather know now before they put the actual paint on.

Thanks!

Wow~ can't wait to see the finished product. I would definately do the shutters burgundy or maybe a deep blue to give the house a little color.

ETA: The new window looks great! Makes a big difference.

looks GREAT.

instead of burgandy, i would paint the shutters black, trim the garage doors black and either a black, white or burgandy door. i would also add wrought iron window boxes on the 2 front windows and perhaps a white trellis to the right of the front door.

WOW, what a difference! It looks great. I think the burgundy will look great, but I love the idea of adding a third color in there, like the black was suggested. My dad did that on their house and it looks awesome. I will try and post a pic, so you can see.

It is hard to tell in these pics, but the base is a similar color to yours and most of the trim is white. But there is burgundy accents that just make the color POP.

Thanks!!! They have great taste. If you really want it, you can buy it - they just put it on the market. Bit out of my league though, although I would take it myself. LOL!
