Oh man, she looks so sad in this photo |
Just a bit different! |
- New roof (I'm lobbying for a dark charcoal gray), soffits and fascia
- New gutters, see how we have none on the top level and see the rotten fascia it's caused
- New James Hardie siding (most likely in neutrals, but I dream of a deep gray/blue too) and shakes above the 2nd story windows
- New trim everywhere, matching the style we put on the bottom floor of the inside of the house and take out the beveled garage door corners, they make me gag, oh yeah make that white too, I don't know why but garage doors the same color as the house make me crazy too (personal preference!)
- Add 5 ft of stone to the sides of the garage doors and the columns
- Beef up the columns and remove the railing (our "porch" is so shallow we are hoping this will allow for some room out there)
- New exterior lighting, maybe a gooseneck barn light style?
I also would add to my "dream" list
- A new Craftsman styled door with some glass in it to add to the lack of light in our front room
- Replace the weird random octagon window with a single normal one, this will add more light and balance out the windows too
Man I'm so excited just thinking about the possibilities!
