Size: 3,900 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Hale Navy, (trim) Simply White, (shutters) Charcoal Linen and (front door) Lime Green, Benjamin Moore

A navy and white palette pairs well with this traditional side hall Colonial. A bold double door pops against the dark exterior and gives it a modern twist. Homeowners Cathy and Ben Clammer painted it lime green after moving in. “We’re a fun, energetic family, and I wanted a bright color to reflect that,” says Cathy.

Built in: 1935

Size: 2,270 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Soft Jazz, (front door) Jade Green and (trim) Cloud White, Benjamin Moore

Updated Cape Cod Home

Location: Richmond, VA

Built in: 1946

Size: 3,000 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (front door) Billowy Breeze and (house) Regatta, Sherwin-Williams; (trim) Super White, Benjamin Moore

“My husband and our contractor were all for getting rid of the original door, but I wouldn’t let it go!” says homeowner Lisa Slattery. Painting it a blue that contrasts with the darker shade of the house gave it a winning update. Another upgrade: the expansive front porch. “We wanted an inviting front porch, so we added one that spans the width of the house," she says. "The new roofline and columns also gave our Cape Cod major impact.”

Historical Queen Anne Victorian

Location: Detroit, MI

Built in: 1885

Size: 2,900 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Hale Navy, (trim) Oxford White, (shutters and trim) Aura, (porch floor) Comet, Benjamin Moore

“It took nearly a year of house-hunting to find this Queen Anne beaut," say homeowners Wendy and Dennis Richardville. Built from fieldstone, the short wall out front serves as the foundation for the wrap-around porch, beefing up the house’s old-fashioned charm. A palette of navy, pale yellow and light blue feels just right with the home's historic details.

Size: 3,100 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (siding) Meditative, (shutters) Refuge, (trim) Nonchalant White and (front door) Rookwood Red, Sherwin-Williams

“The outside of this center hall Colonial looked totally different when we bought it.

The couple had the cedar siding coated in a durable blue stain and painted the front door deep red with a matching storm door.

Sky Blue Dutch Colonial With Awnings

Location: Pasadena, CA

Built in: 1927

Paint colors: (house) Celtic Gray and (shutters and front door) Black Suede, Behr

“We love the colors of our home’s exterior. The soft blue looks pretty against the black shutters and front door,” say homeowners Stephanie and Jamie Neilson. Black awnings with white trim and open sides echo the house’s shutters and shade the west-facing front windows from late afternoon sun. A portico with four round, fluted columns makes this stucco Dutch Colonial even more elegant.

New Build With Plenty of Character

Location: Saratoga Springs, NY

Built in: 2013

Size: 2,300 sq. ft.

Paint colors: Smoky Blue, Sherwin-Williams; (trim) Swiss Coffee, Valspar

The siding on the lower and upper levels of the home are both painted the same grayish-blue shade.

Paint colors: Try (house) Effervescent, (trim) Expert White, (shutters and shingles) Potomac and (front door) Candy Cane by Pratt & Lambert for a similar look.

“The front yard has changed the most over the years," say homeowners Donna and Mark Herbener. The multi-paned windows, framed by blue louvered shutters, are one of the Herbeners’ favorite things about the home’s exterior. After years painted an ordinary off-white, the door got a coat of rich red that pairs well with the blue shutters and shingles.

Paint colors: (house) Favorite Jeans and (front door) Jonquil, Sherwin-Williams; (shutter) Vermont Slate and (trim) Simply White, Benjamin Moore

“For 19 years, we lived in a house one street over. We’d walk by this one every day, and we watched it go through a major reno," say homeowners Hildreth and Shawn Stafford. "The architect did a great job making it modern yet charming. As soon as it went on the market, we made an offer.” After testing several yellows for the front door, Hildreth landed on this buttery shade. "It’s much more cheerful than our last home’s black door.”

Navy Blue Craftsman

Location: Seattle

Built in: 1914

Size: 2,400 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Wall Street, (trim) Snowbound, (porch floor) Black of Night and (windows) Tricorn Black, Sherwin-Williams

“Our house is a Craftsman, but the charm had gotten lost over the years. We brought it back by painting the window frames black and the trim bright white, and replacing the old metal porch railings with wood ones," say homeowners Brett and Chris Adler. Deep navy blue siding and a charcoal porch floor make the white railings look even more crisp.

Pretty Pale Blue Shotgun-Style House

Location: Mobile, AL

Built in: 1868

Size: 1,960 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Watery and (front door) Butterscotch, Sherwin-Williams; (trim) Dove White, Vaslspar

"A big reno and the airy blue color gave it life again," say homeowners John Baker and Rick McGowan of their century-old shotgun house. The couple had the original door stripped and repainted a golden yellow, which contrasts nicely with the eggshell blue siding for a sunny, cheerful appearance.

Charming and Traditional

Location: St. Louis, MO

Built in: 1943

Size: 2,900 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Pale Cornflower and (shutters) Blackout, Behr; (front door) Crowne Hill Yellow by Benjamin Moore

The 1940s door is original to the house, but homeowner Allison Williams chose the egg-yolk yellow paint after spying it on a neighbor’s house. “It pops whether there’s snow or greenery around it,” she says. The brick on the front of the house was painted to match the vinyl siding — a blue gray color that shifts depending on the light and time of day.

Steel Blue Colonial With a Copper Portico

Location: St. Louis, MO

Built in: 1869.

Size: 3,028 sq. ft.

Paint colors: Try (trim) Cool Gray, (front door) Hazelnut Coffee and (shutters) Dragon's Lair by Valspar for a similar look; (house) Sharkfin, Valspar

“We love its historic Colonial style and the copper portico roof with its blue green patina,” say homeowners Kristen and Chris Hite. Louvered shutters painted deep blue frame each window, and the eye-catching door dates back to the 1950s or '60s. It's been the same butterscotch shade for about a decade. "It's the only color like it on the block," says Kristen.

A Light Blue Beauty

Location: Austin, TX

Built in: 2009

Size: 2,700 sq. ft.

Paint colors: Try (siding) Athenian Blue, (white trim) White Dove and (brown trim) Chestnut by Benjamin Moore for a similar look.

“The color of this house — teal with a hint of gray — was one of the first things that drew us to it. The stone walkway and cute square windows up top didn’t hurt either,” say Kelsey and Scott Evans of their Craftsman-style home.

Charming Navy and Beige Abode

Location: Essex County, NJ

Built in: 1928

Size: 1,850 sq. ft.

Paint colors: (house) Deep Reservoir, (trim) Whisper and (doors, shutters and decorative trim) Crossroads, Dunn-Edwards

“We didn’t like the outside of this house at first," say homeowners Sally and Joe Monaghan. "The porch was screened in, the paint colors drab and the shrubs overgrown. But as we’ve painted it and added new plants, the exterior has become our favorite part.” The home is one of just a few in the neighborhood that still has the original moon-cutout shutters. Beige paint makes them pop against the blue siding.
