The craftsman style home is a favorite with Seattle area home buyers.  This one in the Crown Hill/Broadview area of Seattle was built in 1919 and retains much of it's original charm.  The house features beautiful wood trimmed windows, some stained glass windows, and hardwood floors (under the current carpet).  We staged the living and dining rooms, which are the first spaces that potential buyers see when they walk through the front door.  Enjoy these before and after staging photos!

     The days of the classic 50’s diners are long gone----with only a few of the Real McCoy left standing around the country (not counting a few knock-off wannabe’s).      These diners were gathering places of the locals to share gossip (early networking) and a place for truck drivers to have coffee thrown at them.       A “city” incarnation of these diners is the small restaurants located in old houses and other structures no longer suited to their original purpose.  Immediately excluded from this genre of eateries are restaurants that have relied on “architectural planning” and/or “large bankrolls” to create artificial ambiance.      The places I am talking about are the labors of love of the visionary owners/entrepreneurs that are more interested in service and quality of food than ... 08/20/2010

This cute Crown Hill Seattle bungalow is hitting the market today.  The living room has great natural light and features hardwood floors. Here is the "before staging" photo of the living room.  Would potential homebuyers searching the internet see this as a charming space to come home to at the end of the day?  Would they be able to picture a comfortable furniture arrangement?  Would they fall in love with this house?  Maybe...   Staged living room: Yes, it is true:  Small spaces only look smaller when empty.  This living room not only looks larger with properly scaled furniture, it is welcoming and inviting to potential buyers.  Now this home says, "Move in and enjoy!" to  people searching on-line for a cozy in-city retreat to call home.

 Greenwood is a great neighbrohood in Seattle!  Greenwood is actually one of the first neighborhoods of Seattle that I lived in - I loved shopping at the Fred Meyer on 85th, Top Ten Toys, and Gordito's back when they were located across the street from their current location. My favorite in Greenwood? Gorditos - healthy Mexican food  (unless you eat too much) My least favorite thing about Greenwood? The sink holes if you happen to live in the bog...  Many homes are right on the edge, though and out of the bog...  Looking for Seattle homes?  Greenwood real estate?  Crown Hill real estate? 06/05/2009
