STAGED HOME BEFORE & AFTERHome Staging Case Study #2This beautiful single family home wasn't showing well due to clutter in some rooms and a lack of style and interest in others. By de-cluttering, rearranging, and adding a few key accessories, this home showed like a model home and generated a lot of interest. FAMILY ROOMThe first thing prospective buyers noticed about this room was the baby pen blocking the entry way to the kitchen, so it was moved to another room. The room was also in need of accents and accessories: some lit candles, greenery, a change of picture on the wall, and the addition of colorful throw pillows transformed this room into an outstanding space. MASTER BEDROOMClutter was keeping the master bedroom from showing at its full potential - removing the playpen (on the right) really opened up the space. The lamp was moved from the chest of drawers to the end table in order to balance the lighting in the room. A picture above the headboard and a few other accessories add interest and color to the room, making it a peaceful and elegant retreat. KITCHENThe kitchen was clean and tidy but too sparsely decorated. The addition of a plant stand with greenery, colorful accessories on the island, and pictures on the wall really add make this kitchen an outstanding space. MASTER BATHThe master bath was clean and tidy but uninteresting. The addition of a lamp, greenery, candles, and a picture on the wall really make this an exceptional small space. NURSERYIn the nursery, some judicious de-cluttering and a coat of white paint on the crib and dresser transformed this space from bland to light and airy, while still reflecting the true purpose of the room.
ExteriorCurb appeal should not be overlooked when staging a home. The overgrown planting beds made the exterior of the home look dark and unkempt. Cleaning up the overgrown flowerbeds and planting fresh, colorful flowers brings a bright and cheerful aspect to the exterior of this home.
