@lolakimono No, but I dislike red as an accent or wall color so it wouldn't work for me personally.

Reminds me of a candy store. If it were my small home, I'd have a red door but paint the trim navy blue.

It sort of reminds me of something you'd see in Williamsburg, only smaller.

Re: Cottage with Red Trim

Nice house, but I think the red trim makes it too gingerbread looking.

 

I'd prefer to see the house painted in Benjamin Moore's Williamsburg Wythe Blue with white trim all around.   Not sure about the door, maybe, painted a dark blue.

I enjoy seeing photos of things I would not see otherwise.

Thanks to you and other idea posters.

I love this cottage and would love to see the inside!  The red and white doesn't bother me, I have seen a lot worse in exterior colors on homes.

This is cute. I would not have picked red trim and don't think it really makes the little house shine as much as it might, but it is cheerful and it is appealing.
