PALM HARBOR MODEL HOME STAGING - BEFORE AND AFTER!

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Carlson Properties 325-721-2429 0528582

In this project, the furnishings and decor and art work  had already been placed inside the house for staging.

As the home stager I only arranged what was already there.

 

Here is the living room before:

 

 

Living Room Before

 

Here is the living room arranged.  I took the couch which was pushed under the front windows and floated it at an angle in front of the fireplace.  I added decor to the fireplace and found the living room lamps in the bedroom and found the sofa table in the "office"  and that is pretty much it!  Voila,  buyer move in ready to kick up one's feet in the recliner to watch TV or just chill out!

 

Living After

 

 

Kitchen BEFORE:

The Kitchen was just a little rearrangement of the decor.  The Palm Harbor Manager stated that they wanted it to look like someone lives here. That explains the spices by stove.  The spices are real.  Now with a skillet and some fresh food in that refrigerator, one could cook lunch!

This is the only photo that I have of the dining and need to retake, but can see that there is a big table, and a lot of space for dining and a lot of light!!!

MASTER BEDROOM WAS TRANSFORMED TO A MASTER SUITE, BY MOVING THE BED TO THE WALL OPPOSITE TO THE DOOR AND BRING IN TWO CHAIRS FOR A SEATING AREA!

 

AFTER MASTER BEDROOM SUITE!

THIS IS A 3 BEDROOM 2 BATH PLUS A HOME OFFICE, WHICH IS INCREDIBLE!  THE HOME OFFICE HAS IT'S OWN ENTRANCE AND THE DESK IS BUILT-IN.

THE MASTER BATH IS HUGE WITH A SPA-LIKE TUB AND A BIG ENOUGH SHELF BEHIND THE TUB THAT I  PLACED A BIG METAL FISH SCULPURE THAT I FOUND THERE. 

IT JUST SEEMED REASONABLE THAT A FISH SHOULD BE CLOSE TO THE WATER!!!  THIS IS A REALLY NICE MODEL, TAKE A LOOK ONSITE JUST OFF I-20 & HICKORY, ABILENE, TX. 

REARRANGING ART AND FURNISHINGS IS SOMETIMES ALSO CALLED INTERIOR REDESIGN, OR STAGE-TO-LIVE.

I CAN HELP YOU STAGE IT AND LIST IT AND SELL IT AS WELL.  I STAGE VACANT HOMES, OCCUPIED HOMES AND NOW STAGE PALM HARBOR MODEL HOMES!

Susan, thanks for your comment.  Sometimes it is amazing too.  It's hard to show even in photos sometimes, but the most amazing transformation was moving the bed in the Master Bedroom.  It opened up the space for a whole seating area with just rearranging furniture!

I love the view of the kitchen! The desk is great! The living room looks much warmer. Good job!

Very nicely done, Beverly.  It is not always easy to work with staging pieces that have been selected by someone else!  Good work.

Linda,  thanks for the compliment.  I love to stage.

Leanna,  In some ways, it was almost easier not thinking, well, I could use another candle holder, a different color pillow, etc.  Thanks for the compliments.
