The job we finished tonight has to be my favorite job ever. I could live here.... yes, I've said that before with the french beach house - L'escale. This home surpases that one, however. This one actually shows a lot of my personal style, in case you've ever wondered. These actually are the colors of my own personal home. The colors in the home, especially the kitchen dictated the color scheme throughout.... If I had a million dollars to spend on a home right now, I would be writing an offer....
This home was vacant and we were fortunate to have just purchased a large amount of fabulous inventory at a sale last weekend. I absolutely personally love the way this home turned out... As if the home itself weren't beautiful enough, don't you wonder what what's out the windows.... check this out....
These are the views from the back porch and the master (upstairs) porch....
I'll be sharing more with you after I take some additional photos tomorrow. It was dark when we finished and I really want to show how the sunlight pours into this home.... really stunning!

You did a fab job! Staging fits the home and AMAZING location! View is worth a mil at least!
It's awesome. I can see why you'd want to live there. I would have been half tempted to bring a jug of tea and watched the sunset. What a fabulous view.

This home is fabulous! I love your staging and your pictures!
It is also nice to see pictures without "blown out" windows" that can distract you from the room.
The first room is my fav! Love it!
Both the inside and the outside are gorgeous! You did a wonderful job staging and the new inventory you purchased looks great!
Melissa,
Again, you never cease to amaze me. As always, beautiful work girl.

There are so many high-end homes out there that you look at from the street and think "man, if only I had the money..." yet when you go inside, they haven't been updated since the home was built...30 years ago! Home staging is an absolute must in those situations (which is far too often in my neck of the woods...)
Hi Melissa,
What a beautiful job you did! The home looks lovely!! I'd love to live there too.
HI Melissa,
Thank you for sharing this amazing home. You did an amazing job on staging it to bring it alive! Isn't it fun, that we get to see the most amazing homes and do our work. Fun, isn't it? Love it.
Thank you for all the wonderful comments! I have posted another blog where you can see all the photos of this home... Does this look like $1 Million to you?
Congratulations on the Terrific Shopping Spree that enabled this Amazing Transformation! You turned a house into a Home by enhancing its warmth and live-ability with your time and investment.
This place won't be on the market long!
Melissa:
Gotta say incredible. Your photography is fabulous. You deserve the KUDOS....
Room looks very nice, but for those of us (mostly male) who would'nt know what taste in design if it hit us with a barge pole, some "before pics would be a good guage.
Guy - here is a blog with before photos and a link to all of the after photos of the home
Thanks again for all of you who have commented. I truely do love what I do. The best thing is the reaction I get from the agents and clients. This is what the homeowners emailed me tonight....
"WOW!!! Charlie and I went over to the house tonight! It looks fabulous! We are ready to move back in. The photos are great also! Thanks so much, "
Melissa,
I'd live here too. Except in the summer. There's not enough air conditioning in the world for me.
Gorgeous house, gorgeous job!
Susan - I'm always cold, so I would say the exact opposite about Seattle (although we did actually live there for a year when my husband was in the Navy - beautiful)..... I LOVE being a southern girl!
Bob & Carolin - Thank you! We are hoping for a quick sale. The sellers jokingly told us they were ready to pull it off the market and move back in they loved the staging so much.... lol! I hope they don't do that, but I do hope someone else feels that way!
Can I move in with you and Marci, LOL..it is beautiful I noticed that in another blog. Love the kitchen and fireplace.
