Today on my renovation blog series, we’ll take a look at this property’s grand dining room. As with all posts in this series, I’m going to show you the before and after photos of each room in this 1949 San Mateo ranch house, while explaining the changes we made, and why. The Challenge The original dining room looks dated, but you can tell from the photo that the windows offer lots of natural light and the wooden floors are in good shape. Additionally, the dining room faces the lovely backyard, and it is very roomy. When making renovations, we wanted to emphasize the view and the size of the room, and present it as “move-in ready”. Our Solution The acoustical ceiling, or “popcorn” ceiling was removed, and the ceiling was given a smooth textured finish. We removed the wallpaper and a pain...

Today on my renovation blog series, we’ll take a look at the small room next to the entry that can function as a den or an office. As with all posts in this series, I’m going to show you the before and after photos of each room in this 1949 San Mateo ranch house, while explaining the changes we made, and why. The Challenge The office had the potential to be a cozy room for reading, watching television, or working at home. However, the teak walls and the cloth wall covering felt dated. Here’s what it looked like originally: There had once been a large tube television situated in a cabinet, and we needed to fill that space, yet suggest where a flat screen could be placed. Also the elaborately framed mirror and brass-toned light fixture didn’t fit with the more modern feel of the remainder...

Welcome to the first installment of my renovation blog series! As you may remember from my introduction, I’m going to tell you how we updated a 1949 San Mateo ranch house for the modern market. I’m going to show you the before and after photos of each room, while explaining the changes we made, and why. Today’s room is the entry. It’s a very small part of the house, but it’s crucial for making a good first impression. Why? Quite simply, it’s the first thing people see when they step inside the home. The Challenge Like much of the house, the formal entry was dated and dark, and ultimately not as welcoming as it could be. Here’s what it looked like originally: Our Solution The entry may not have been perfect, but here is the good news: it only needed minor improvements. We knew that the w...

ActiveRain is a fantastic source for finding a “quality agent” in another area of the country.  Agents do not need to be in any category other than the “quality” group, in my opinion.  Even though I do not interact with buyers and sellers any longer in my area, I continue to be recognized as a real estate participant who is often a good source for information. One of the local broker/owners (who I happened to have trained when she was newly licensed) called me for a name in the Silicon Valley area.  I thought of Lottie Kendall, and I have to admit, I’m a good decision maker!!  Lottie accepted the referral from the broker in MA and found the young couple a property.  This was not an easy task.  The properties in this part of California were a “sticker shock” event for this couple, but L...
