We chose Hardiplank® siding because of its combination of durability, low maintenance, and price. The siding on the first floor is 10-inch instead of the traditional 6-inch siding as it saved a little money and seemed to fit the scale of the house better. The second floor has shingle-style siding in a straight-edged panel. The combination is quite striking - see for yourself:

| Hardiplank® siding on the garage exterior |

| Shingle-style siding on second floor |
 |
| The front facade with the combined sidings installed. Quite striking, we think! |
The siding really fits the style of the house and should provide us with years of low-maintenance beauty!
