The 5302 furniture definitely is modern, and some of it is attractive like the living room set. I will get this house because it should work well with much of the furniture from the Modern and Suburban houses.
Once you paint the roof and maybe the windows softer colors, it should look fine. Too bad they don't offer several color options for trim, window, door, exterior stairs and roof colors.
For the roof, we have been using Krylon Fusion Hammered Finish 2534 Brown Metallic or Gray Metallic spray pain. For the windows and doors we like Valspar satin 65082 in Summer Leaf Green. We liked both the Suburban and Modern houses with windows this color of green as well as the external stair and balcony rails. If you can spray pieces outside in the sun, it will take 2-3 coats per side and remain tacky for a day or two.
It is lots of fun decorating the exterior with plants, outdoor furniture and people relaxing in the yard. DS recently has had several styles of chaise lounge chairs, which sit there calling you to take a break....all day!
Guess we'll have to make do with just one house because of the roof configuration. Too bad!
