Suggestions for the front of this house

We just bought a property - actually, closing on it tomorrow. It's bank owned and has some issues. Former owners did some changes to the front porch and siding. They removed part of the white vinyl and replaced it with pine, stained an orangy cedar color. Why they didn't go all the way to the corners is anyone's guess.

So what would you do with this, other than the obvious repairs that are needed?

Outside of actually changing the structure I would just paint it or change siding...Paint exterior in grey paint/grey siding.. White trim, black shutters.. door in either black or red- rails and columns all in white.. steps in concrete paint.. In front on either side create a little flower bed with black mulch.
