Yesterday I posted about a pink house in Eastbourne Street, Caversham that I spotted while we were driving down the street. There’s another pink house directly across the road and together they make quite a statement. Here’s a photo taken by Nigel that includes both houses (as well as me getting my photo).

First is Nigel’s photo and for convenience I’ve re-posted my photo below.

Your neighbors look at your house more than you do, so they both must be happy having chosen similar color schemes. The one with the picket fence would make me dizzy, I think.

Its very interesting that these neighbours have each gone with this colour – could be an interesting story I reckon! I don’t think the picket fence would make you dizzy as in reality it doesn’t hit you in the eye the same as in my photo – so you can blame me for the dizzy effect!

Red and pink together is quite a curious choice, but it works!

You mean the house on the right? I hadn’t given it much thought to be honest but the roof and garage door tend toward the brown end of red – enough to make them reasonably neutral I think, not too clashing!?

I guess the red is more of a maroon. It looks good together.

Somebody really likes pink in this house. I really like the different shades of pink they have used.

Its interesting to know what you think Pete, thanks! We liked it and were especially intrigued by the pink two-tone picket fence, a very different take on the usual white!

It certainly really catches the eye, Liz.

Yes it does! I find it a really interesting choice that they did that 🙂
