East Falls home staging Philadelphia

17 Apr

It’s been a busy few weeks but I had to get back to the blogging board to show you this cute property in East Falls.  If you don’t know about East Falls it’s an adorable little community bordering Roxborough and Center City.  Walking distance to Kelly Drive (a great place to run and bike) as well as one of my favorite pubs East Falls Taproom (amazing veggie burger!).

I staged the living room, dining room, kitchen and spare bedroom in this three bedroom row near Henry Ave.  Take a look:

This property shows impeccable craftsmanship and they paid close attention to the details.  From the NY Slider closet doors to the ample natural light in the living room.  This is a city dwellers dream.  Side porch, incredible neighborhood and a roof deck.  Yeah, I’d live here.

Bella Vista Home Staging

17 Jan

A lot of house in a little package.  One of the best ways to show off the space you have is to put furniture in it.  I get this question all the time, doesn’t my home look bigger without furniture?  Not necessarily.  The right size and amount of furniture can actually make your home look bigger and will show buyers that their furniture will fit there too.

This is one of those properties that needed some furniture to show how much you can actually fit in the living room. When vacant it looked small and might have fooled buyers into thinking they couldn’t fit their furniture in the living room.  I added a sofa, a couple accent chairs and tables then voila a complete living room that still feels spacious.

I also staged the master bedroom that features a dressing area and walk out deck.

My favorite room would have to be the basement area.  Because it was a finished area I thought it was so important to highlight the potential of the space.  I got a little creative and here’s what I came up with.  It’s an office, relaxing, getaway room that I (personally) would use to do yoga.

Love this property, check it out courtesy of The McCann Team at Prudential Fox Roach.

Thanks for stopping in!

Philadelphia home staging: Grays Ferry

9 Jan

I was feeling glamorous and inspired when I staged this property last Thursday.  Notice the pink pillows, mirrored side table and sparkley throw blanket.  Sometimes I just can’t keep my girly side at bay.  I really think the look compliments the style of this house.  So it all worked out.

Take a gander at that kitchen, it’s huge!  This is a great entertaining house.  Open floor plan, large kitchen, great lighting.  All you need is food, friends and tunes.

My favorite part, the true master bedroom.  Guests have their space and bath you have yours, it’s a beautiful thing.

Love this property as much as me?  Check it out here: Century 21 Target Realty. If you have a property you want to glamorize give me a call 267-335-4290.

Northern Liberties Home Staging

13 Oct

Northern Liberties is one of my favorite neighborhoods in the Philadelphia Area.  So you can understand how excited I was to stage this property right off N.5th in Northern Liberties.

I’m not quite sure which was more exciting the location or the property itself.  I’m going with the property.  This is the epitome of my kind of home.  There are so many windows, lots of natural light and a very contemporary feel.

I worked really hard to compliment the home rather than overshadow it with staging.  I thought a clean palate of black and white was the perfect solution.  Pops of red throughout draw the eye around the room.

Because there is a full finished basement with a full bath the first floor (shown here) is perfect for entertaining, rather than just lounging and watching tv.

The master bedroom is incredibly spacious and has a deck as well as a juliet balcony.  Additionally there is a space attached to the bedroom great for an office, lounge or yoga ‘studio’ (that’s what I would do!).

Needless to say I love, love, love this property and hope you do too!  If this is the home for you visit the Northern Liberties Property Listing here.  Love you guys!

Graduate Hospital Home Staging Philadelphia, PA

12 Oct

 

 

Beautiful neighborhood, beautiful home…what more could you ask for?  Last week I had the pleasure of staging this enormous property in the Graduate Hospital area of Philadelphia.  This property features an open first floor living area, three bedrooms on the second floor and two bedrooms on the third floor.

If I were to live here I would put the kids and a guest bedroom on the second floor and use the third floor as a master suite complete with a sitting room and walkout private roof deck!

 

I really had a great time playing up the warm jewel like colors on the walls.  Throwing in bright blues and reds really gives this living area some warmth.  My favorite spot is the little reading nook in the bay window area.  Although you could put individual curtains on each of the three windows I felt using a long rod with two panels would create a more private spot while still letting all the light in!

This bedroom is on the third floor with another smaller bedroom, full bath and roof deck.  Although not the biggest bedroom in the house making the third floor a master suite would give you the privacy and space you’re looking for.

Here’s more information on this Graduate Hospital Property.  Hope you love it as much as I do!

Have a great week!

7 Sep

Rain rain go away.  Seriously, go to Texas, they need you!  Last week I had the pleasure of staging this property in South Philadelphia…in the rain…but we prevailed!

If you are looking for tons of space this is the home for you.  Partially finished basement, three full baths, three bedrooms and a sitting area on the second floor as well as a master suite complete with an office and walk in closet!

My favorite room has to be the master suite.  There are so many ways to set it up because it is sooo spacious!  See for yourself South Philadelphia Property Listing.

Home Staging Wynnewood, PA

8 Aug

It’s late Sunday night and I’m just getting back from a long trip to Tennessee but I couldn’t wait to post about this property in the Wynnewood section of Philadelphia.

When my client called and was concerned that the property wasn’t showing to its full potential I headed right over.  I knew right away the problem areas were the living room and master bedroom.  The rooms, which are nicely sized, were deceiving without furniture.

Although you may think furniture would make an empty room feel smaller, the opposite can happen if you know what furniture to use and how to lay it out.  I decided to keep the room open to show off the fire-place and keep the flow of the space moving.

There are a few different places a tv could go so in this situation we made the focal point the fireplace and I used an existing bistro table in the corner where a tv unit could also go.

A simple bed, night stands and dresser did the trick in the master bedroom.

This 2 br beauty can be found here on realtor.com or email amanda@sunflowercreationsonline.com.

Hope you have a great week!
