Sunny N Potomac Gets a New Lease on Life

By
Home Stager with SHOW SMART! HOME STAGING & Color Consultant

If ony it were as easy to rejuvenate a person as it is to bring a home back up to speed!  This luxury 1990 home hadn't seen updates in its whole life.  To sell, it needed some and of course at least Key Room Staging.

See BEFORE and AFTER pictures on my Washington DC Area Home Staging blog.

Patricia- Great Before & After's.  Those drapes in the dining area were hiding some absolutely beautiful windows!! Glad the pink carpet is gone too.

Kathy:  Yeahl, weren't they hideous?  Also the pink anything has to go, right?  Watch out though.  It'll be back before you know it.

Kathy:  Thanks for stopping by my blog to have a look.  Yeah, this one was really sad when I first saw it.  Twenty years w/o much of anything really takes its toll.  The sellers had to spend a pretty penny to repair water damage and fireplace issues as well as updating things.  It really makes the case for routine maintenance in my mind.

Looks like a very big house.  That was a good idea to remove all those dreadful draperies.  The windows are very pretty and really bring in the light now.

Sally:  Really, the house isn't that large.  4 bedrooms if I remember correctly.  With Key Room Staging I often forget the total number of bedrooms.  But, yeah, sunny was its middle name, especially w/o all the heavy, traditional drapes.
