semihugger1 It's always hard to tell in winter, as the house looks "ungrounded" I do personally prefer shingled peaks be a different color to add visual dimension. Would definately box out the front pillars for weight and interest. Also would consider some stonework to ground the windows or at the least some heavy windowboxes for the time being.

semihugger1 PS- as a landscaper I would move your right tree to the left side with 1 more (odd numbers) in an island planting with a couple boulders to again weight your home correctly.

Jeffrey Brooks Interior Design I like the roofline of your house and the color scheme of the exterior. First, repaint (if you can) the siding sections under each of the peaks. Choose a shade of the same color but a step or two darker, or lighter. This will point up the the height and punctuate the overall architecture.
Next I'd beef up the columns so they become roughly twice the width and depth that they are now.
Wrap them in either the same material as front door or something you can paint in the same overall color. The garage door looks Purple....? Paint the Garage door and the trim just below the roof line all in an almost-black shade of the face of your house, or, of the door and column color.
To finish it all off I'd recommend that you add shutters just to your picture window. These can be the same color as your garage door. At the left facing side of your house below the smaller window, plant a grouping with one tree or bush and some lower growth. For instance, one red maple to the left of the window just a few feet and positioned about 6-7 feet out from the house. This will add some needed volume to that window without crowding it with shutters.
At some point in the future I'd consider turning the from foot path so that it joins the driveway, or widen it.

Mary Poulos Interior and Exterior Design I would consider a real or faux attic vent, not to large, in the two larger peaks.

Scott Sawyer Suggest larger natural beam columns to replace the two small columns. This will add weight and balance to you beautiful home. Hire a local architect to help specify and design. Then I would add some evergreen bushes to the front. For example one on each corner of "A" roof ridge line on the left, repeat for the center and then for the right on each corner of the garage. And yes add shutters. Beautiful home that only gets better. What is the mountain.

claudiann Shutters and those shake shingles on the gables would look good.

Craftsman's Choice Inc. Here are a couple pictures from a job we did that has a similar style.

Jayme Hobbs Craftsman style columns would look great on this house.
