Honestly, when we re-roof our home when the shingles go, we're putting on a white roof. I'm sure it will tank the resale value because it will be the only white roofed home in my county or even region, but the cost savings on cooling has to make up for that, to me.

You can get light grey shingles. Might look fine if it works with the paint color of the walls.

  I'm thinking about the non-visible wavelength ranges. Changing the IR properties might be very helpful as well.

    Is there a particular brand you are considering? I'm planning to change our own roof in a year or so.
