Truly impressive. Good work with all the subtle lighting from within the house. Have you tried adjusting the gamma and brightness settings? I think a little more contrast would help.

In the end I took the color out because I wanted more realism.  Cheating, I know, I do it often.  Also a shot off the back of the house -

Try setting all your materials to a diffuse white color and render out the scene again. Use this new rendered image as an ambient occlusion pass. Set the AO(ambientOcclusion) pass as a layer above this image in PS and change the mode to multiply. The AO pass is used for shadows and you may have tweak the shader to a slight gray or in PS use curve/levels to add more contrast and bring out more tone. I also like to add some grain, DOF or chromatic abbreviation to help sell the image as being "real".

Here are updates to both views.  The previous versions were meant to simulate lighting at dusk, but I abandoned that.  Here you see mid-day shadows that show more depth.
