Help with exterior facade

2 years ago

Hi everyone.

Please help with exterior facade options :) I am looking at using granite and timber battens. I have a few options below, which ones do you like best?

I should add that the house is semi-detached and the building next to it is all white, so we are trying to create some separation through the facade materials.

Thanks so much! Any other options or suggestions are welcome :)

Hello Cork2015, Looking like a very tidy home... I like the black on brick and its lovely to have a difference in texture that the brick offers, rather than all render which would not be as appealing I feel.....What about considering painting the window sill on the ground level black, this will blend nicely with the sliding doors.. The eye is not drawn to it either... Then you might want to add some plants in large pots... 2 square metal planters with something nice in could be lovely either side of the sliding doors.. possibly two pots under the window too... They work in a variety of settings not just period homes.. Have a look at these ideas.. : )) A line along the aggregate could be lovely... 2 more either side of the sliding doors and two under the window... Lovely and easy! 2 either side of the front door down the side... (if less light they could be artificial there)

Do not paint the brick!! It's part of the homes appeal and its style. Change up the stucco color to a warm gray as well as paint the fascia boards a more appealing color also (deeper charcoal or similar) a grayed green would be another option for the stucco. As long it all works with both the roof shingle and the brick these are colors worth looking at. Another option for just the gable end would be cement board shingle (Hardieboard or similar) if you want a change from stucco.

In a former life, our house was a shop on the ground floor. The red brick front was taken out to allow for the shop window and door. When the property was turned back into a house, the opening for the shop window/door was filled in with blocks and rendered. As much as we’d love to, we don’t have the budget to try restore it to its original red brick with oblong sash window so we’re looking for some ideas on how best to smarten up the look of the house front and give it s bit of curb appeal. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Personally I think the issue is proportions not colours. I think you want to paint the brick because there is too much red- the solution is to put more greenery between the house and the drive. I think you want to rip down the porch because it doesn’t currently sit right…. But I think that’s the proportion of the path in front and if you make the path squarer and the same width as the porch these columns would look grand. And if you replace the windows a deeper fanlight will change the windows from suburban to grand.
