Congratulations on your new home!! It is lovely. I have found it is always best to live in a home for 6 months or so before doing major Reno's, as you get to find what works and doesn't and discover ideas that you hadn't previously considered.

Enjoy!

Personally, I would square off the column posts and render.

Box in the pillars and bottom half render and top half weatherboard.

Congratulations on your new home….live in the house for six months at least before you change anything.

Start on the interior…that’s where you live and enjoy creating your oasis. Work on the outside last….although you will look at it when you come home every day, it is really for ‘show’ and can wait!

Don't miss: Has anyone found any letterboxes in the hamptons style?

Just paint/ render the bricks into a light grey and change the columns to square and This will transform it immediately.

Congratulations! It looks like a lovely home. My recommendation would be to not jump into renovations just yet. Resist the urge for 6-12 months & you'll have a much better idea of what you want/need from a house. I would have saved myself a small fortune if I'd been more patient
