Elevated house - How to improve facade of detached 70's house?
Comments (22)I rather like your facade. I would think twice about painting the brickwork, as this would be a maintenance headache, but cleaning it would brighten it up. Otherwise stucco and paint the front ( brickwork) only? i would clad your existing canopy in lead, but leep the existing shape. Is the tarmac yours? If you could change this to something lighter and softer, this would have a really big impact. Clad the stairs in slate or indian sandstone, get rid of the block screen and replace with glass, ( marine grade stainless steel fittings and door furniture) black iron railing for the steps....See MoreWhat colour would you paint this house?
Comments (152)Hi Nicky, my apologies I have only just seen your message. We went for cornforth white Farrow and Ball (which it definitely not white). The shutters are not back open yet but some of them will need to go back on because the large expanses of grey look very grey. The bits next to the white look less austere. The new white garage door with windows has made a big difference. I'd be careful with a very pale grey because if your windows are anything like mine you'll find that they are not actually that white after all.......See MoreAny suggestions on how I can improve the front of my house?
Comments (13)I think keep the wood effect if it's not a mahogany colour (can't quite tell?) if it is, then replace it with a more contemporary wood fascia instead which reallly works with a mid grey tone. The grey woodwork on the door will be soft against the brickwork. You can either have white on the front block or a pale grey to match it all together. Thinking more the vintage grey rather than the very dark grey on the walls because of the side stones....See MoreHouse Exterior - Half Render/Half Brick - Paint Options
