Whether you have a quaint coastal cottage, a colossal waterfront home or just love the look of coastal style, with James Hardie® siding and trim, your home will not only look stunning, it will be protected from the Midwest  weather, too.

The Midwest is known for its heavy winds, blizzards, hot humid summers, which can all hit hard, fast and without much warning. James Hardie can help you feel protected. Its building products are made of fiber cement, making it a robust option to help resist the impact of windblown debris, and resist shrinking, swelling and cracking even after years of wet and freezing conditions. James Hardie siding and trim with ColorPlus® Technology can also help stand up to damaging UV rays. The multi-coat, baked on color application process helps your color stay vibrant longer with less maintenance than paint applied on the job site

Here’s a collection of classically clad coastal homes, both stunning and safe throughout the Midwest seasons.

Bayside Beauty

This harbor home is clad in HardiePlank® lap siding in Boothbay Blue. The HardieTrim® boards in Arctic White match the pristine white fence allowing the main blue hue to pop. The grayish-blue sided home paired with the white sailboats on the water provides a soothing coastal palette

Lovely on the Lakefront

This large waterfront stunner is clad in straight edge HardieShingle® siding and HardiePlank lap siding, both in Evening Blue.  The Wisconsin home is nestled on Fox Lake, and seems to let nature take center stage. The HardieTrim boards in Arctic White add a clean outline when paired with the rich blue main hue.

Classically Coastal

This standout beauty is clad in HardiePlank lap siding in Arctic White. The crisp, classic white siding choice makes the home’s architecture, including the unique chimneys and black tin roof, a focal point. The white siding matches the picket fence and pulls together the entire clean, coastal look.
