Cap over door with frames Bay window Front Door color
Doesn't look quite this bright in the sample.
So can we transform this ordinary ranch into an inviting home that is unique yet in keeping with its environment? Maybe we can.  By incorporating a few architectural elements such as a bay window to replace the picture window, French doors in an inviting red, and lengthening the existing windows on the Western front of the house to improve the overall appearance.   Make the house a neutral with a green tint to it, do darker board and batten shutters, trim work in a lighter neutral, and a red front door.

Front door - Confederate Red by Benjamin Moore?  FYI - Sally says that to paint red, you must prime with black.  Excellent tip.

Of course, in choosing the exterior color, we want to consider what trim colors the windows come in so that we could possibly order metal clad windows that don't need painting.
