Great Contemporary home in Portland is Staged for the Target Buyer
A repeat client contacted me recently and asked me to view his latest project, a stunning new contemporary home in a premier Portland OR neighborhood, and provide a proposal for staging it. Last year we staged a couple of nearby homes for this client and they sold quickly. Because his homes are known for their stunning design, high quality materials and attention to detail, I couldn't wait to see it. As professional stagers, we really appreciate when everything is done "just right."
As soon as I drove up the driveway I felt the excitement of this property, set apart on a hill with a great view of a forested area. I walked in the front door and immediately noticed that all of the cabinetry throughout the home was made of exotic African Sapele wood (part of the mahogany family) -- and every door was 8 ft high.
The seller knew that buyers would relate much better to this home if it were staged so that they could imagine living there and enjoying all of its unique features. The great room has soaring windows about 30 ft high .... and dramatic architectural features that are found throughout this 3,800+ sq ft home:
This view of the great room shows it's fireplace that also serves a cozy study on the other side: 
The dining area with Brazilian cherry floors adjoins a gourmet chef's dream kitchen, and opens out to a spacious redwood deck:
The master suite carries on the clean lines of this home so we staged it with contemporary furniture:
We staged the study with a small desk and showcased the fireplace & beautiful views:
