Sierra Madre Home Staging - Gorgeous Sierra Madre View Home

By
Home Stager with Moving Mountains Design Home Staging, Pasadena, CA

This week we happily staged a beautiful 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom Sierra Madre view home (with a pool!) listed by Irina Netchaev, Keller Williams Pasadena. We initially were hired to perform a home staging consultation for the home owners. We made cost effective recommendations on updating the kitchen (painting the cabinets white, granite counters, new hardware, and moving the refrigerator from the laundry room into the kitchen proper) and the master bath ( granite counter and new tile for the floors and shower) as well as some new light fixtures and paint colors for the rest of the house. Here's some before and after photos:

Wow - nice job! I've never seen a piano in that position before. Right in the middle...

Shelley: They were trying to use the piano as a room divider to differentiate the living room and the dining room. It was definitely the elephant in the room and made this lovely open space feel much smaller.

Piano as a room divider....that's another new one!!  BIG difference with the re-design of the space and the color on the walls!!!  LOVE those 2 cream color chairs!!!

Michelle ~ this home now looks very stylish and move-in ready.  I'm sure it will sell quickly now (as opposed to lingering on the market if presented as in the "before" photos).  Very nice design.

MY son and his wife used to live in Sierra Madre before moving downtown. I love the views!!

Now this home will not be on the market long thanks to YOU!! Removing the dated sofa and the piano transformed this home into a showcase!! Gorgeous indeed!!

Julia: That was the original paint color when they purchased the home 5 years ago. They never repainted until the staging.

Cathy Lee: Sierra Madre views are beautiful. I hope you are right and it sells quickly!

Michelle, it is a beautiful transformation. I like how you set three areas in that long room. I am wondering after all money spent how owners priced that house. I see that sellers have tendency to overprice after improvements like that.

Anna: Thanks! The price was set before the improvements. They improved the home to meet the price, not the other way around.
