No one has mentioned the Hardi-plank, so I thought I would. If you can't do brick, go with
Hardi-plank as your second choice. It is so superior a product when compared to vinyl siding that I am surprised vinyl is still allowed,

I've stood and WATCHED vinyl melt off our house in MI when it was exposed to the heat from the house fire across the street (the house across the street exploded). To see what I mean, take a look at these photos: Fire Damage (broken link)
And it's the same kind of vinyl that is on the house we just bought here in NC. Too bad we couldn't find one with Hardi-plank. Liz
