This home is on acreage with an incredible view of the McKenzie River, about 25 miles upriver from Eugene Oregon. Our redesign was done using under $200 in new accessories, plus our normal Staging Redesign fee. We reconfigured what was on the property and were thrilled to hear that the Realtors and the homeowner were VERY HAPPY with the transformation. The realtor had already helped the homeowners clear out a lot of their things and the finish work we did was made easier because of this.
The entry was a little bit of country (window ledge), a little bit of Tiffany's (coffee table lamp) and a little bit of fishing on the dock of the bay (picture). We picked a theme - hung up our coats and stayed a while - just like we hope potential buyers will now do when they come to the property!
"Those miniatures on the window ledges are quite a special collection - let's pack them now so that they will be safe":
A garage, a storage facility, a family room, a library? And wait a minute...shouldn't the lawn swing be on the lawn?
With a little re-organization, this room is a great hang out for the guys with a work table for tying flys and making wood miniatures; a comfy place to sit, read a book and smoke a pipe; and room for a rack to hold all those fishing poles and sports paraphernalia that were hiding behind the lawn swing...
This is the only full bath in the home. In order for it to show as a more grown up space, the blue and yellow fish from the shower curtain have now left the building!
The game room holds a hidden treasure.
The doors on this cabinet open to reveal the most awesome bar. Good thing our Staging Agreement gave us permission to open cupboards, drawers, etc!
The old 'bed at an angle' trick works every time!
Some things are just better left at Goodwill (sorry, grandma). And yes, this bedroom has everything, including the kitchen sink.
Wait a minute...why am I so distracted from my office work (see desk behind overstuffed chair and a half)? Is it because there is a FANTASTIC VIEW from this sitting room overlooking the river? Let's add more seating and make this a "sitting and having a sip of lemonade as I watch the river flow by" room!
Almost forgot the kitchen...this area has been nicely upgraded, although as a redesign, it is probably the least dramatic transformation in the house. There was some colorful glass fruit hiding in the pantry. It is now in a basket on the table.
Some Stagers don't care for Redesign - others thrive on it. We are always amazed at the treasures we find when we do one. This project was no exception! It was a LONG DAY, it was a REWARDING DAY, and the Realtors and homeowner were SO HAPPY - makes you go home with a smile on your face when you feel as though you have been of positive service to your clients!
