I have a 1976 single story small, worn, medium colored brick home with a black roof with a ridge vent. The soffits are off white. I can’t decide if the gutters should be white or black. Any ideas?

If the soffits are off white and you use white gutters it would show. I wouldn't go with black, only because it wouldn't give any appeal to the home, it would just look as if it were part of the roof. What color is your window frames? I would match my gutters with the color of the window panes or go off white with the soffit. It would mesh together better than just black

The color for the gutters of a 1976 brick home would be very impressive painted black. These types of homes are present in parts of New Jersey and Washington that I have seen. The black paint gives them a nice look especially if the soffits are a white color.
