I bought the place 16 years ago and painted it from chocolate brown to a light gray. It was time to do it again. Replaced a few weathered facia' boards and opened up part of the patio cover to a lattice, and had a contractor replace the rest of the patio roofing with what they call a "torch applied roofing" not shingles but a membrane and put n a few skylights. The first picture is about 2-1/2 years ago during a really, really rare snow dusting (last time in the area must have been 20 years ago at my old house, a few miles away).
Went from a gray to a lighter gray, darker trim and red-ish on the garage doors and other accents.
