This lovely home in Beverlywood was about to be sold by the family of a 90 year old couple. It was in good shape, but very very dated. They didnt want to spend on a major overhaul, so I suggested we remove all the carpets and drapes, polish the floors and paint everything white, except for a soft peach in the kitchen that sets off the cabinets and mutes the peach appliances. We brought in white blinds, a minimal amount of clean lined modern furniture and accessories,and dealt with the vinyl-floored, awkward "family room" by adding some sisal rugs, whiting out the paneling and bringing a hamptons look.
The realtors were able to list the house for $799,000 instead of the original estimate of $650,000. They have multiple offers in a week.
Done, and done.
