What would you do with this front door?
I'm having someone strip and sand the front door as the finish is flaking off. Should we re-stain (what shade?) or paint (what color?). It is wood and gets full morning sun. The brick is has some reddish tones and there is stone around the entrance.

paint it a shiniy red
I think staining it a dark mahogany would be really pretty. You have a very pretty home. Have you considered making the porch and steps the whole width of the indentation in the house? Trim or remove the shrubs and plant lower ones and put potted flowers on both sides of the door.
I would paint that door red and add a knocker and gold kick plate.
High gloss black paint to match your lanterns
I would use Marine Paint that will wear much better, a nice blue or green would work too.
Red would be gorgeous, the kick plate will help alot.
