Sounds interesting but lime bricks?

Nonono - I meant lime mortar (and bricks not blocks). Ordinary bricks.

Are these yellow in colour?

No, no such thing as lime bricks.

The
bricks must be red (like the rest)

You can use any bricks.

also, I would have to incur in
extra costs because I have already bought the cement.

How much cement have you bought?

Most importantly, the rest of the house (the other 3 facades) are build
using bricks and cement.

The colour of lime mortar is slightly different, as is the texture. If
you want a perfect match, you'll have to use cement. But you can tweak
the colour quite a bit.
