Project Feature – Luxury Staging at Scarborough Custom Built

Today we are featuring another lovely project which is a Newly Built custom home in Scarborough, this 5000+ sqft house has it all. An extraordinary property with a lot of nice features that we will be discussing in this blog and how we highlighted it all with our staging to attract mass appeal to this magnificent property.

Upon entering the house, you will see a very nice feature wall with wood beams in sky blue colour, given that this is a focal point that will attract Buyers once entering, we wanted to keep it simple with all the wood beams going on and place a nice simple waterfall console table with a leaning mirror that nicely reflects the living area, which incorporates the same colours of the wall

 

Living and dining area combined are accented with cove lighting, we placed a neutral colour grey sofa with two tufted curved accent chairs and a diamond leg glass coffee table for a nice modern/transitional look, we still wanted to carry the same elegant look on to the dining area with a nice glass table centered with nice crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling with glass top rectangle dining table and neutral velvet dining chairs, which made the look complete.

The dining room will lead you to a door that takes you to the butler pantry with plenty of storage, we wanted to create little vignettes that showed how you can make use of this area.

Butler pantry will lead you to a super bright and spacious kitchen with Gold accents and a pretty decent sized island, there is a nice breakfast area that overlooks a nice big deck and backyard

Across from the kitchen is the family room anchored with a gas fire place. We opted or a symmetrical look with placing two identical sofas across from each other. Also, since this room is where family members are to gather in most of the time we placed two large ottomans infront of the fire place to show ample seating area. We wanted this room to feel cozy and restful and we were glad it turned out the way we wanted. Black and Gold was the main theme for this area. We tied those colours throughout the room, you can see this in the wall arts, accent cushions and decorative accessories on shelves, mantel and coffee table.

A luxurious oak spiral staircase with a skylight leads you to the second floor where you’ll first see the Master bedroom that welcomes you with a double door. A lovely spacious bedroom is where we were able to place a king bed with two large nightstands, seating area and a console table all in one space, yet still looking spacious.

Ensuite is pretty large with a soak tub, standup shower, double sinks and a makeup area. This ensuite will definitely make you feel like you are in a spa. A spa- like experience was exactly the look we opted for this ensuite.

Three other spacious bedrooms were of great size too, we gave each and every room a different character so buyers can imagine how each room can be utilized. Second bedroom had a study area (desk and chair), two other bedrooms included seating area and console tables.

1. Personal Photos and Religious Items

Your family photos and religious artifacts may be meaningful to you, but they can make it harder for buyers to imagine themselves living in the space. To create a neutral atmosphere that appeals to a wider audience, pack these items away before listing your home.

2. Medications and Valuables

For safety and privacy reasons, all medications should be stored securely out of sight. The same goes for valuables like jewelry, cash, and important documents. Keeping these items locked away ensures they remain safe and prevents any unnecessary distractions for potential buyers.

3. Personal Documents

Any papers containing personal information—such as bank statements, bills, or personal letters—should be kept out of sight. You want to protect your privacy and maintain a clutter-free look in your home.

4. Light Fixtures, Chandeliers, or Artwork You Plan to Take

If there are any fixtures or decor pieces that you want to bring to your new home, it’s best to remove them before showings. Buyers may fall in love with an item that isn’t included in the sale, leading to unnecessary disappointment or negotiations. Replace any removable items with neutral alternatives to maintain a cohesive look.

5. Pets and Pet Accessories

Not all buyers are pet lovers, and some may have allergies. If possible, arrange for your pets to stay elsewhere during showings. Additionally, remove pet beds, litter boxes, and food bowls to eliminate any odors or mess that could turn buyers away.

6. Fireplaces

While a lit fireplace might seem like a cozy touch, it’s best to keep it turned off during showings for safety reasons. Instead, stage it beautifully to showcase its potential without any risks.

7. Strong Odors and Air Fresheners

Avoid overpowering scents, whether from air fresheners, scented candles, or lingering cooking smells. While you may love a particular fragrance, strong scents can be off-putting to buyers. Instead, opt for fresh air circulation by opening windows before showings.

8. Cooking Smells

Refrain from cooking strong-smelling foods before showings, as odors can linger and create an unpleasant atmosphere. Stick to mild, neutral scents to keep the home feeling fresh and inviting.

9. Garbage and Cluttered Countertops

Take out the trash before every showing to prevent any lingering odors. Additionally, clear off kitchen and bathroom countertops to create a spacious, organized look. Clutter-free surfaces help buyers focus on the home’s features rather than personal belongings.

10. Yourself!

While you might want to stay during showings to answer questions, it’s best to step out. Buyers feel more comfortable exploring a home without the seller present, allowing them to freely discuss their thoughts with their realtor. Give them space to envision their future in your home.


Final Thoughts

By removing these items, you create a neutral and welcoming environment that appeals to a wider range of buyers. The goal is to help them see the full potential of your home without unnecessary distractions.
