These are close matches for several of the exterior body colors and accent colors used by Eichler Homes that inspired and were part of the palette that comprised the 1950s-era Cabot Stains' Ranch House Hues catalogue. Cabot still has several original Eichler colors in production.

Eichler's original exterior accent colors were reportedly furnished by Dunn-Edwards, but all have been discontinued. Several close matches appear below.

For our examples, when possible and available, comparable color equivalents are represented as follows: for body colors, Cabot Ranch House Hues originals (RH) are translated into currently available Benjamin Moore (BM) colors; and for accents, Dunn-Edwards (DE) originals are translated into current Benjamin-Moore (BM) colors.

While we strived to closely match the original colors with our reproductions here, for more exact matches please refer to the manufacturers' in-store printed catalogues of color chips for the colors desired.

Codes: ^ indicates selection is currently available from Cabot under the original Ranch House Hues paint name. + indicates color selection is included in the Lucas Valley Homeowners Association recommended palette.
