When staging your home, always try to remember what season we are in. It can be a little off-putting for someone walking into a home that looks like it belongs in the Caribbean, after stepping off the icy streets outside.
As the temperatures outside begin to cool down, stage your home to feel warm and cosy.
Read below for tips on how to stage during this Autumn:
Kerb Appeal – Front of your house:
First impressions count. From the second prospective buyers see your home, they should be wowed.
You should start by tidying up the garden, including mowing the lawn, de-weeding the path and repainting the fence. Next, clean the windows and repaint the front door where necessary.
To add an autumnal touch, consider a wreath made from deep oranges and brown tones, a classy way to incorporate the season into your décor.
Entranceway:
The attention you have paid to the front of your home should continue into the porch or hallway. In autumn, these spaces are often cluttered with raincoats, muddy boots, and rogue leaves.
Stage The Outdoors:
Just because the weather is cooling doesn’t mean that your buyers don’t want to see the outside space. Leave out your garden furniture to show your viewers exactly how they can utilise the garden with their family and guests. Having a shed in your garden is almost always seen as a bonus, especially if you’re willing to include it in the sale. Make sure it’s well-maintained and is proportionate to the size of your garden.
A small storage area for bikes or garden tools works well too.
Highlight The Fireplaces
Viewers want to see a house they can imagine spending the winters tucked up inside. If you have a fireplace regardless of type, you make sure it is a highlight of your room.
Adding Extra To The Room:
Flowers are an excellent final touch for styling any home. They allow you to add just the right amount of personality along with a pop of colour to every room. However, autumn is not the optimum time for fresh flowers.
Consider instead investing in a few dried bouquets to dot around the property. These look incredible, stand the test of time, and can be easily transported to your new home.
Earthy tones are perfect for autumn, and be sure to add in some bright yellows to liven up the room.
If you have pillows, blankets that are cool colours, consider swapping them out for a more earthy tone.
