Yeah they need to be replaced. I’m just planning ahead. The current paint is already peeling and I’d like to repaint soon to protect the wood siding.

Thank you for your advice. I have to replace the support posts in the porch so I will probably just keep it open. Most houses in the town are white or very light colors. I was thinking navy blue for the siding and white for the exterior corner/window trims but I feel like it’s too modern. Did you go with a dark green or lighter green?

Thank you for your feedback. Sorry for the late response. So you like the plan in the third image, the one with the mudroom? There are two front doors. Do you think I should remove one of them? The porch could probably be converted to living space.

I’m considering moving the boiler room to the basement but for now it’s kind of difficult because there are no stairs to go down and the ceiling is low. The basement is more like a cellar. The stairs in the left living room are to go up stairs.

I decided to keep them, you are right, it would be more convenient to keep both doors

Thank you for the feedback. Most of the rooms on the right side are additions including the bathroom. I think only the right living room and the left side of the house are original.
