Ashley Tisdale's Unexpected Front Door Color Is Delightful – Designers Say it Can Boost Curb Appeal
Ashley Tisdale's teal door is the ultimate contrast against her home's white exterior, showing us that a colorful facade never fails
Choosing a front door color that will stand the test of time, as well as add the right decorative touch, is a critical design move. While black or white may be safe, Ashley Tisdale proposes something a little more unexpected, but equally versatile for her front door: teal.
The actor shared a glimpse of her home's exterior on her Instagram page, and we were instantly drawn in by the contrast between her teal door and white-painted house.

We love this steel, single-seater, which comes fitted with a plus, gray cushion for optimal comfort.
With their natural stone coloring, no two of these planters are the same, meaning they're as unique as the gardens and patios they adorn.
Japanese boxwoods are low-maintenance and offer lasting structure and elegance. They’re an excellent choice for gardening beginners and create effective privacy screens when planted in groups. Plus, their evergreen foliage ensures your home stays sheltered and vibrant throughout the winter.
Design experts say that using teal as a front door color in particular is a fantastic way to increase value to your home as well as bring some brightness to an otherwise neutral facade.
'Teal has a striking presence outdoors,' Westchester-based designer Nina Lichtenstein explains. 'For a home’s exterior, teal works beautifully as a pop of color on front doors, window frames, or shutters. A teal front door instantly adds personality and curb appeal, creating a welcoming entry that stands out from the street. Pair it with a neutral facade, like white, grey, or beige, for maximum impact, or complement it with brick for a more dynamic look.'
A testament to its endurance and versatility, Nina explains that the hue fits with a variety of architectural styles. She continues, 'Teal shutters or trim can enhance the character of a home, especially when used on coastal, Mediterranean, or Southwestern-style architecture.'
It's one of those transitional shades that works well inside your home, too. A deep blue floor covering, such as this tufted rug from Lulu and Georgia, is a great place to start. Alternatively, this fringe pillow cover makes an excellent transitional indoor/outdoor accessory for your patio or living room sofa.
Ashley's front door is a gentle reminder of the warmth and welcome of teal. As far as we are concerned, teal is not so much a statement as it is a refined take on blue and green, striking the perfect balance between natural and invigorating.
