This home had been recently renovated when our sellers purchased it—and then they added a primary suite addition and expanded the bath as well as adding the fabulous screened in porch and garage. The opportunity with home were the beautiful lines and since she hadn’t been painted in quite some time and the inspection showed some exterior work that needed done, she got a total upgrade on the curb appeal creating a hyper-contemporary that accentuated all the unique lines of the architecture.

staging and a really strong cleaning can create the feeling of the outside on the inside

leveraging the connection between the inside and the outside

This home was secluded and lush, rugged and wild – complete with three bedrooms and two-and-half baths; primary suite on main level opening out to a private screened in porch; brick wood burning fireplace; stunning knotty pine ceilings; granite and stainless in the kitchen; roomy attic storage plus a one-car garage!! The large furnishings blocked the flow and when we pared it back, magic happened.

accentuate the unique stuff

The ceiling of the loft was so stunning – and after it was polished and we added like three more lights it emanated a warm, comforting glow.
