Staging Before & After: Spacious Lake Forest Residence

Step inside and witness the staging transformation of 1896 Hackberry Lane! This Lake Forest gem, set on .81 acres with 4000 sq. feet of updated living space and a stunning backyard, underwent a magical makeover to become MLS ready. It’s now easy to picture yourself enjoying intimate dinners or lively gatherings in the spacious layout, whether around the dining room table or under the stars in the sprawling outdoor oasis. With meticulous updates and a breathtaking setting, this residence is truly a sanctuary waiting to be explored.

Living Room

In the living room, we embraced the homeowner's existing decor while aiming for a simplified, elegant look. Swapping out the sofa for the sectional from the family room allowed us to highlight the room's charming shutters and spacious layout, creating a more inviting atmosphere.

Family Room

In the family room, we made a strategic change by introducing a sofa in place of the sectional. This decision was driven by the desire to optimize the room's layout and preserve the stunning backyard views. The sofa's streamlined profile ensures an unobstructed sightline, allowing occupants to fully appreciate the beauty of the outdoor oasis while enjoying the comfort of indoor living.

Primary Bedroom

Farewell purple walls and welcome serene neutral hues! In the primary bedroom, we created a tranquil atmosphere with a fresh coat of paint (SW Glossember Veil) and updated bedding. The lighter tones beautifully accentuate the room's tall ceilings, exquisite chandelier, and elegant beam, adding to the spa-like ambiance for ultimate relaxation and rejuvenation. P.S. Can you spot where we found the neutral rug? It was originally stacked on the jute rug in the living room.
