Barn Color Design Opinion

[Kathryn Bowden]

We are finishing up getting our place ready for sale ASAP on the southern Oregon coast.  This is a manufactured home on acreage.  The first thing you see as you come down the drive is the barn.  The barn is old and a bit "rough".  It has cheap siding, but still has charm and good usability.  We have done a lot of repairs to it (fixed rot, etc.), but it still is what it is.  It's not too close to the house and the house is a green with darker green trim and some cream colored trim.  I have two colors in mind that I feel I have narrowed it down to (but open to others as well).  One is a fairly deep slate blue (lots of gray in it), and then possibly paint the front and back door of house in this same color (another paint decision).  The other color we're considering is a deep espresso brown.  With either color it would have cream colored trim.  We want the barn to recede more, than stick out (like in a red or white barn).  And again, we don't want to call attention to the "roughness" of the barn.  And we feel a green is probably just too much green (?)  I'll attach a picture of the barn.  The house is down at the next level.  We will also be adding a "barn quilt" to that upper front, such as photo I'm also attaching, but colors of that will depend on other final colors.  Thanks for your expert opinions!
