Home staging East Falls Philadelphia

Quaint, adorable, cute, spacious all words I would use to describe this property we staged in East Falls.  I love everything about this property.  From the outside sprawling garden to the beautifully restored interior.  We staged the living room, dining room, kitchen, patio, office and master bedroom.

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 project was my baby and I’m so happy to share it with you!  The well-respected builders of Catherine Court asked me to step in and help select finishes pre construction, um YES!  I had my hands in everything, floors, railings, back splashes, counter tops, light fixtures, bathroom tile/layout, doors and exterior lighting.  You name it, we helped!

Bella Vista Home Staging: Philadelphia

12 Mar

Third times the charm!  Thanks for reading everyday during Blog-Fest ;)

Ok, so I KNOW I say this all the time but I am in love with this house.  I can not find the words to express what it is but from the moment I walked in and saw the stone fireplace, warm hardwood floors and interesting details (ie the hardwood walls leading to the half bath, wow!).

I think you’re going to fall in love too, so here goes.  I staged the living room, dining area, kitchen, master bedroom and bathroom.  Additionally this house has a finished basement, second floor den, two additional bedrooms and full bath.

I can just picture myself reading by the fire in this living room.  Actually it may not be the house for me, I might not leave…ever.

Moving on to the very functional kitchen.  If you like to cook, this is for you.  Just the right amount of counter space and a layout that makes sense.

I love it all.  If you do too check it out courtesy of Prudential Fox Roach Walnut Street.

Next up, Catherine Court…you have no idea just wait and see!

Art Museum Area Home Staging: Philadelphia

8 Mar

Well spring came early this year,  I’ve been so busy staging houses that I haven’t had the chance to share any of them with you!

Not any more, this week you’re in for a treat.  I promise you’ll see a post a day through the next week.  You have to see some of these houses.

To start off the blog-fest I want to share this adorable classic home in the coveted art museum area of Philadelphia.  Featuring an open floor plan, gorgeous built-ins and a view of the art museum like no other!

We staged the first floor only and had a blast doing it.  The first floor is a great area for entertaining.  Having a finished basement and den on the second floor there is really no need for a tv on this floor.

A lot of people have trouble envisioning their furniture in an open space.  It’s actually easier than you think, but you have to get away from shoving furniture against the wall.  Floating the sofa and chairs around the fireplace in this space creates a cozy area for late night conversations with friends and wine.

I’m loving this property and I’m sure you will to.  Visit the listing here: Prudential Fox Roach Listing.

Missed you guys!!

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.

Philadelphia: Roxborough home staging

6 Jan

SOLD in 2 DAYS!  This house literally flew off the market after I staged it. Here’s the photos, hope you don’t like it too much cause somebody else already found it.  You know what they say early buyer gets the house…no one says that.

If you’re thinking about listing your home in the spring call for a complimentary staging walk through 267-335-4290.  It’s a good time to start planning and budgeting!

Blocks from the Italian Market, check.  Spacious property with outdoor space, check.  New renovation, yep.

I know you guys get tired of me saying how much I love this property and that property.  How could she possible like ALL of these houses?!  Well trust me, I’m telling the truth.  I’m blessed to be able to step into other people’s homes and I always seem to find the beauty in each and every one.  They all have their wonderful qualities.

This property is so adorable and I love the little creative nooks throughout.  You will see in the guest bedroom there is a little hidden bench behind the door that I had to highlight.  I can just imagine an overnight guest retreating to their room and journaling on the little bench about their wonderful trip!

One of the first things I noticed during my initial walk through was all the light that flooded the second floor hall.  With enough space to have a little chair I could resist creating a small reading nook in the hallway outside the guest room.  It may not be the perfect place for reading but it does show off the usable space.  And who knows it may be a great place to sit and put on your shoes before walking to the Italian Market.

Dreaming of living here?  Check it out Bella Vista Listing courtesy of Sean Kaplan.
