The Staging Prince can prepare and stage your deck, patio or garden, recommend garden accessories, and advise on plantings for your paths and walkways, low walls and fountains that will make the outside a part of your home and enhance its value, much as a well-conceived finished basement would.
Make your Garden Part of your Living Space
A garden is not just a place to grow vegetables. Integrating it with your living space can make your home more spacious and more appealing to potential buyers. If you are not selling your home in the near future and want a garden to enjoy, many home stagers can recommend siting, materials and contractors for hardscaping, as well as local garden centers and mail-order nurseries that sell native shrubs that will use less water and maintain biodiversity.
Here are some photos showing what we have done with walkways, decks and gardens:
Outdoor Living
Many potential buyers are looking for activities to share with their family. Gardening is one that offers fuller use of your property, enhanced home value, and satisfaction on many levels. To read about the many benefits of making your garden part of your home, there are no better sources than Barbara Blossom Ashmun's Garden Retreats (Chronicle Books, 2000) and Julie Moir Messervy's The Inward Garden (Little, Brown, 1995), both available at your public library.
