I think it could be any colour they come in mate, so again, no set colour, it's your choice.

At the moment i'm also making a french farm house,
i will make the outerwall's white-grey and around the windows the red white thing.

The common tiles ranged in color from a red oxcide to a redish brown. The farm house, if in the Normandy, area would have most likly been made of a limestone, ranging from a cream color to a grey color. Any other questions, let me know.
