If you really want a change, I think a light gray might work. Whitewashed brick would be interesting as well.

WHITE with accent door. Avoid green trim.


Yep - that's it!

OP here - thanks. So universal opinion seems to be white.
Or get a new roof.

Imagine it as a copper roof with a nice patina and then think of your paint color.

When I was growing up, my neighbors had a green roof. The house was white with black shutters and a red door. It was lovely.

Definitely white or off-white. Red, maroon, or coral (like PP suggested) door would look nice in my opinion.

White or off white. Coral door.

I can't find a photo of a brick house with a green roof, but this house has one and is painted white, and looks fantastic IMO:

Something like this, but doesn't look quite as green when you see the whole house.

I'm having a hard time imagining this. Can you find a photo similar online and post it?

First reaction though, white. Dark gray shutters.

If your roof (that you aren't replacing right away) is light green and your house is painted cream brick that need to be repainted, what color would you repaint it?
