One of the many things we do with clients at Watch Hill Designs is home staging.
Home staging is the act of preparing a private residence for sale in the
real estate marketplace. The goal of staging is to make a home more appealing to the highest number of potential buyers. This allows for the selling of a property become more swiftly and for more money.
Recently we worked with a client who was looking to sell their 1.3 million dollar beach home in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. They came to us seeking for our help to make their home to look more appealing to buyers.
As you can see on the left this is the before and after of the living room.
Before it was outdated and didn't show the houses strong
potential for its beautiful beach views. We brought in different couches, a rug, window treatments, and decor to bring a warm feeling to the room as a whole.

Our client has two young twin girls, so most of the furniture was kid friendly.
The original kitchen table and chairs we moved into a storage room. We wanted to make it more of an elegant look so we brought in a glass table and went with a neutral color palette. We added two chairs and a bench with pillows allowing for four people to comfortably sit. The picture above the table added to the decor of the home, as seen in the before and after shots.
Their upstairs was absolutely beautiful, it had all water views and was the perfect spot to watch a beautiful sunset. We added different cushions to the sitting area and brought in multiple pillows to make it look more inviting to relax on. By adding these small few details it turned a beach house into an elegant summer home.
When a buyer is looking to purchase the home, they are able to have the option to purchase the home with the furniture included. If they decide not too, then we move the furniture out and use it to stage other homes.
When charging the client, we charge per hour of work. If we buy decor for the home, the client is then charged per item. Me and Mrs. Pierce move the furniture in and out if necessary and do what it takes to sell the home. Three weeks later, the client called, letting us know that the home had been sold. The buyer kept some of the furniture we brought in, which was great!
