I like the brighter house - in fact, you might be able to push it a bit further (just the house/road).
Of course, if it goes too far, you begin to wonder where the light came from.
But, it also helps give a nice focal point since the colorful orange of the sky, and the shape (almost arrow-like) of the bright areas converge in the same area as the road.

Thanks for the comment, cbses! I tried out your suggestion to brighten the foreground and uploaded the result. Let me know what you think,

Very nice sunset - you did a great job controlling the exposure. I think it would be nice if you could bring out just a hint more of the foreground near the house and road. - another easier said than done suggestion :) - It is a nice point of interest but difficult to spot.
