Located within 5 minutes walking distance from the Charleston Market, the historic neighborhood of Ansonborough dates back to the late 1600’s.

Today I was fortunate to stage a stunning 1840s renovated carriage house.  One of the big problems in this home was the appearance of lack of size.  Buyers felt this simply wasn't a large enough property for full time living.  This room felt a little too small - even for a guest room.  Before it seemed as if the bed would be inside the fireplace...   This living room seemed barely large enough for a comfortable living space let along a dining room... hopefully we've squashed that problem...       These spaces were actually able to break down into 3 distinctive living spaces, showing funcationality.  Buyers want to know that they can have a party, entertain, etc.  Now, they can do just that! Staging, properly done, is more than just adding furniture & some art to a home.  It should help ...
