It's unfortunate that the sidewalk handrail is on that side. It's splitting the front yard and the house front almost down the middle. For me....I'd change that over to the other side. What could be done to change the accent color from white? Could a beige be used for the larger areas, such as the porch ceiling and the the porch roof gable ends? And maybe a hunter green color for trim, gutters and downspouts? There's always the muted auburn with gray color scheme, too. Something that would compliment rather than clash with the brick and mortar colors. Are there any colors in the brick that could be accented by trim color choices? Our last house had brick that was beige until you looked close at it. There were gray and rose/pink flecks in it. So my wife chose colors to bring out the pink. After we painted the trim and did a few other things, that rose/pink color jumped right out!
