Tan house with dark roof.
To be honest i would choose a tan if you had a brown or even a black roof but i think some of the colors that lefty has suggested would work better and look more interesting with the pewter gray roof you have.
Use rich exterior house paint colors with a touch of sheen to give your home been around awhile character.
This produces a calm quiet appearance for the home.

Yellow with a strong brown roof is a very common mistake.

The roof makes up about 40 of the visible exterior of your home depending on the style of the house so choosing the right shingle colors and roofing materials means that when you make your choice you are also deciding on the type of first impression you want to make with your home and even bigger decisions like the resale value of the property.
A soft muted brown or the right color grey are your best choices.

This is a popular choice and almost always bad.

For a contrasting pop of color opt for reddish orange shades or lighter tan colors.
There are no surprises here no drama and no pops of color.
You can also choose to incorporate a mix of colors like gray and black or tan and brown shingles for a staggered effect.
