Best Exterior House Paint Colors for New Jersey Homes

The choice of color for the exterior of your home can be intimidating. Choose the wrong one, and your home will stick out like a sore thumb. And since the exterior of your home is a big, expensive project, you’re not likely to change it until the 10 year mark, where it begins to show wear and tear. Before you commit to a color, here are the best exterior house paint colors for the Mercer & Middlesex NJ area.

Navy and White

Navy is a dark color that works in many locales. It’s good as a vivid color because it reads to the eyes as a neutral. Pair it with a stark white and you’ll get a classy, nautical feel, no matter how far the closest ocean is.

Spicy Brown

Working with varying browns is a good way to mix up your color scheme while living in a safe, neutral territory. Shades like copper, cinnamon and chocolate pair with off whites or cream colors to lighten it up. Want to really make a statement, go really dark on trim elements with an off black like Dark Granite.

Gray & Cream

Is it gray? Is it blue? The newest trend in home colors is the almost color that falls between gray and blue. Paired with cream, this soft exterior is ethereal and sophisticated while warm and comforting. The gray is strong enough to feel classic, but toned down enough to not feel too stuffy. Antique white is perfect for porches and shutters.

Orange Blossoms

This once southern classic color has made its move into other areas of the country like ours. Pastels in peach, rose and beige create a warm home that doesn’t feel like it’s shouting at you. Mix these colors with a soft buttermilk yellow trim and your home will be inviting and classy.
