Pretty on Parkside

March 20, 2012

If the thought of moving in to a home and not having to fix a thing appeals to you, then this is the home for you! A custom Spanish cedar front door welcomes all to this meticulously renovated brick and cedar colonial set on a hill near the Princeton Battlefield. A gracious foyer leads to a large living room and adjacent sunroom. A handsome dining room segues to a stunning kitchen with hand–painted custom cabinetry, mahogany island, and high-end appliances (Subzero, Wolfe, Viking, Miele). The fabulous great room overlooks the park-like yard and, like the rest of the home, enjoys an abundance of natural light. Also on the main floor is a cozy den/office with built-in Murphy bed. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a master suite with walk-in closet, fireplace, and luxurious bath. The lower level boasts a rec room, laundry room, and wine cellar. From the copper roof and gutters to the custom millwork and fir interior doors with oil-rubbed bronze hardware, this Lewis Barber restoration is truly spectacular. A blue stone patio, stone retaining walls, and petanque court with a second patio complete this magnificent property! Check out the lovely pictures and floorplan at http://www.callawayhenderson.com/listing/NJ/Princeton/188-Parkside-Drive/6022688/2245634. Cheers! Sig&Syl


Thinking of Selling?

February 7, 2012

If you are thinking of selling your home this spring, the time to prepare is now!  First impressions are everything, be it online or in person. February is the perfect month to start de-cluttering and sprucing up. Statistics show, homes that have been carefully prepared for sale not only spend less time on the market, but also consistently achieve a higher sale price.  Here is short list to get you started!

-De-clutter in order to give a more spacious and roomy feel.

-De-personalize by packing away photos and family heirlooms.

-Remove and replace any items you plan to take with you. Say for example; your dining room chandelier is a family heir loom. Take it down and replace it with a suitable fixture. If the buyer never sees it, she/he won’t want it.

-Make minor repairs inside and out.

-Make the house sparkle!

-Pretend you are the buyer and see if you’ve missed anything!

This is just a small sampling of a few of the things that should be completed in order to have a market ready home. We would be happy to come to your home and give you a thorough market evaluation as well as a comprehensive road map on how to get your home ready for sale.  We are fortunate to be backed by a world class agency, www.callawayhenderson.com  and can provide you with the best marketing, technology and services in the industry!

Cheers,
