Lucky, that one's a beauty.  Nice photos!

Cheryl,

That is the best of compliments coming from one of the masters of photography!

Thanks,

Lucky :)

that is one gorgeous house!  Tell us some more about the area it's in.  Is the economy such that folks could conceivably retire there and be able to exist on limited funds?

Lucky, That home is absolutely gorgeous!  Looks like it's move in condition and beautiful pictures to show it off.  I'm sure that will sell fast, it's lovely.

What a beautiful kitchen- and those windows are breath taking! Pretty nice size bath also- this is a GREAT house Lucky!

Gail,

Thanks for asking about the McClellan Heights neighborhood.  I will be doing a post about it soon!

Lucky :)

Carole,

Thank you!

I will pass on the compliments to my sellers!

We will be having a Realtor Open on Tuesday from 11-2pm.

If you catch the "RED EYE" you can make it!

Lucky :)

Maureen,

It IS a spectacular house!  Thanks for stopping by and commenting!

Take care,

Lucky :)

Gorgeous Home!!  Does not look like it was build in 1928 with some of those windows - Did they add on?  Does it overlook a river nor nature preserve.  A home like that in Oakland County Michigan would go for way more $$ -- what a deal!

Cathy,

There were two additions.  One was for the family room off the back of the house on the main floor.  That room is the fifth picture.  The second addition is where the Master Bedroom Suite is on the second floor.  Both additions can be seen in the eighth picture.  All of the original house is BRICK!  Isn't it gorgeous!

It is too far to see the Mississippi River from this house and too many trees.  Many of the homes in McClellan Heights have beautiful old trees like this.  With the lovely landscaping is just seems like a nature preserve!

My sellers would be pleased if we could get Oakland County pricing!

This is truly one of the best pieces of real estate in Davenport, Iowa!!! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Lucky :)           

Hi, Lucky

That is a gorgeous home.  I love the kitchen and the setting looks fantastic.  I'm sure you'll have lots of buyers wanting to call that property home. 

Jesse

Jesse & Kathy,

How about some Spouses Selling Houses coming down from the tundra to sell some Davenport, Iowa real estate?

Lucky :)

Lucky - This looks like a historic home. Very well done. I like all the brick and the arched window and doorway.

Sounds good, Lucky.  We'll be right down.  Can we get a Friday afternoon showing?  A 7+/- hour commute migth be a little long, but ya never know... :)

Chuck,

This was built with quality and character!

Thanks for stopping by!

Lucky :)

Lucky, what a gorgeous home! Your photos and description should sell this house very quickly. It will make a lucky home buyer a wonderful home. Everyone would love this home...just look at it!

Gena,

We had 36 people at the Realtor Open today!  That is a very good turnout in our market! 

All very positive comments and many great real estate agents from the Davenport, Iowa area.

Thanks for stopping by!

Lucky :)

Lucky, sounds like a VERY successful Realtor Open. Next, the offer!! I just love this house!

Gena,

We would love for you to join us here in the Midwest!  You'll have to hurry though as Jesse & Kathy are coming in from Alaska to see it on Friday! ;)

Lucky :)

Jesse & Kathy,

What time did you say your flight was arriving? ;)

Lucky :)

What a remarkable remodel!  Sounds like you are getting great traffic.

Diane,

It just takes one to buy.......and that "one" may call me at (563) 676-9031!!!

Lucky :)

Lisa,

Thank you very much!  My work was easy after the owners lovingly updated this Masterpiece!

It is so spectacular that it should be featured in Better Homes and Gardens!!!

Thanks again,

Lucky :)

What a beautiful home !  And a very nice presentation, Lucky!  Hope it sells quickly for you.

Terry,

Thank you very much for your comments!

We are having a second showing this Sunday with a prospective buyer.

Hopefully they will agree with everyone that this is a beautiful house that they will call home!

Take care,

Lucky :)

Wow Lucky.  This is beautiful.  If it had 50 acres of pasture and a big barn  I might be headed in your direction!

What a great listing!  I'm sure it will have lots of interest.  Good luck!

Lucky - Wow! Great looking home!  This should be a quick sell, it is absolutely amazing. 

Deb,

Now that's funny right there! (Said in my most southern twang)

There once was a time in my life that 50 acres and a barn sounded good.  Today, I'd take this Masterpiece in a heartbeat!

I guess I'm just a city slicker at heart!

Lucky :)

Jim,

Thanks a bunch for stopping by and commenting!

Take care,

Lucky :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Lucky:  Thank you for checking out my blog post.  You have done an excellant job of featuring this home!  What a beautiful home.  It wouldn't be that far of a commute to Kansas City, Missouri, would it? Hah!  What program did you use to put the border around the photos?

Mary,

Just take the I-35 to I-80 east and you're here! ;)

As for the picture border, check out Jeff Turner's post: How To Add Some Depth To Your AR Posts - FREE!

It tells about the Picnik site which allows you to do all sorts of tricks to your photos!

Beautiful house!  My dad grew up in Lawlor.  Good luck for a quick sale!  Chris

Chris,

Lawler, IA is about 2.5 hours from me.  Do you ever visit there?

Thanks for commenting!

Lucky :)

Lucky,

   Great house. I work in Ridgewood, NJ I was pretty sure I hadn't seen this house in our neighborhood. Our office is right off of Ridgewood Avenue, just a few small states away. Great job with the photos.

Sal Poliandro - Bergen County Realtor      

Sal,

We certainly would have a higher ticket on this beauty if it were located in New Jersey!

Davenport, Iowa pricing is very affordable!

Thanks for stopping by!

Lucky :)

great looking home Lucky- love the kitchen!! As you already have figured out ( I am sure) I am a kitchen person. It really is an adorable looking home.

Congrats on the award!!

Maureen,

Thanks for your continued support of everyone in the Listings By Address group!

Lucky :)

Lucky- What a beautiful home!  I enjoyed the photos and your descriptions.  It should sell very quickly.  Good Luck!

Pamela,

Thanks!  If you have any buyers heading up north, send them our way!  I'll buy them a shovel for a house-warming gift!  We have already had 3 small snows and are expecting another today!

Take care,

Lucky :)

That is one gorgeous kitchen!!

Anna,

Everyone that see this kitchen agrees with you!  It is even more spectacular in person!

Thanks,

Lucky :)

I love this home! With all of your beautiful pictures I am sure you will sell it quickly

The brick is beautiful and I love how the contrasted it with the white garage.  I also like how you added larger pictures as well.  Seems like a great price too.   Good luck with it.

Kathy,

Lots of interested parties, I'm anxious to see who makes it to the table first with their wallet!

Happy New Year!

Lucky :)

Sue,

Thanks!

I like the larger pictures because I'm getting old and I can see them better!

Hi Lucky...it's Liz again.  I thought housing prices in the greater Houston area were low!  This is such a great group to post your listing too.  I am carry 35-45 listings, and trying to get them all posted here, then it will not take as long to post as I list them.  I have gotten more feedback here than from agents who show them, so it will help to get back to sellers with things to help them.  I have some that have been on the maket months, and agents in other parts of the county say "Wow that should sell yesterday"...they don't understand the prices in differant parts of the country :).  Looking forward to talking to you, Liz

Liz,

Thanks for stopping by and commenting again.  Many times agents will comment like that to help you promote your listing.  Simply reply, "I agree!  It will be sad when the other buyers miss out on this opportunity!"

Take care,

Lucky :)

Lucky

Wow! This is a beautiful home, great display and photos of the home. Your sellers must be thrilled that they have an agent like you. Keep up the good work.

Gary,

Thanks for your comments!  They are thrilled because we just accepted a cash offer!!!

Take care,

Lucky :)

Congrats Lucky, this is a beautiful home.  The kitchen is fantastic.

Hi Lucky, congradulations on the sale of this beauty.  They were "lucky" to have such a professional Realtor.  Your frend and Realtor in TX, Liz

Thanks for commenting!

Liz,

Thanks!!!

Lucky :)

Hi Lucky :), sorry I missed your call...boy you are raking up the points with this beauty!  Maybe you can e-mail what you were going to tell me?  I'm leaving for MFO real estate training in San Diego tomorrow, will have cell and computer or course.  L

Liz,

I'll try to call again this weekend.

Take care,

Lucky :)

Beautiful home and nice presentation of it!  Good luck with it!

Lucky this one looks great any luck with it yet?

Cheryl,

Thanks for stopping by!

Lucky :)

James,

5 comments up from yours Liz congratulated me on the sale of this listing.  Two comments above that I announced that my sellers accepted a cash offer.  It is suppose to close on 2-29-08.

Gena featured this post back in November because she thought that it represented a job well done and something that people could look at as an example.  The featured posts are for quality, not most recent.  She has also left her two posts up about the Carnival from last October because the winners' posts also show others great posts that should be used as great examples.

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!
