Dick and Jane’s Mid-Century Modern Makeover!! (Before & After Pics)

November 5th, 2010
by vanessa

This one was fun!! The 3597 Eaglerock Dr. already had GREAT BONES and sits on one the most coveted lots in the Mid-Century Modern neighborhood of NORTHCREST! The lot is over an ACRE and the gardens have been loved and nurtured over the years to provide some of the most spectacular fruits and flowers!

Mr. and Mrs. Dingler lived and loved this house for close to 30 years and they had the basement dug out by hand to create a wonderful large office where Mr. Dingler could keep track of their day to day finances. The clean Mid-Century Modern lines of this house were left intact while we decided to go with a more modern gray color pallet for the outside and cool whites and blues for the interior. Wood Floors were added as well as a completely new kitchen and baths. All the electrical was updated along with some hip contemporary lighting that had a MCM twist. The copper plumbing is new and the “shag” a.k.a frieze carpet in the den added an element of cozy-class. The original hood-vent, which previously displayed an electric fireplace was left for the new owners to decide what they wanted to do with it. Some people like it some don’t. I personally think it gives the home a more original feeling and keeps in line with how the builders/ designers wanted it back in the 1960′s (but to each his own).

Northcrest was featured in the Atomic Ranch issue last winter. If you are interested in finding out more about this article please email me and I’ll send you a copy! Interested in finding out where to buy Mid-Century Modern Original pieces? Check out City Issue, Antique Factory and Highland Row!!

Enjoy looking at the dramatic changes and please forward to your friends and/or family who is looking for their very own Mid-Century Modern Home to call their own. This house is for sale and offered at $300,000.

Why all Real Estate Agents are NOT created equal.

August 24th, 2010

Whenever I go on a listing appointment and describe how my marketing and staging techniques are worth every dollar it’s hard for some sellers to grasp the value, especially without seeing visuals. So I decided to pull an example of before and after shots of this Mid-Century Modern Home that was recently re-listed by me in Northcrest (Atlanta’s MCM neighborhood). 3506 Summitridge Dr. is a Ranch with a 2 car garage. Before my team and I got our paws on 3506 Summitridge Dr., it was looking a little sad and lonely. The previous agent’s attempt was just that – an attempt. Unfortunately it did not capture the LUSTER and SPACE of this Mid-Century Modern Ranch with it’s soaring ceilings, T&G paneling and master suite!! The seller was getting worried that the house wasn’t going to sell. After being referred to me by some friendly neighbors I walked her through the staging process and explained how staging and professional photography would help sell her house. Words can’t describe what the below pictures display. If you are on the fence about agents and you don’t know which way to turn, ask around… talk to friends and neighbors and get their opinion about the agents who work in your Neighborhood. I STRONGLY SUGGEST WORKING WITH AN AGENT WHO USES STAGING TO SELL THEIR LISTINGS…. WHY?? Just look at the pictures below!!
