This past week, Los Angeles home stagers Moving Mountains Design, took on a big, beautiful Hancock Park luxury home. I initially was hired for a home staging consultation, as the home owners wanted to tone down their personal design style and make the home appealing to a wider audience. Don't get me wrong...every thing they owned was beautiful (they are art collectors), there was just too much of it. And being artistic types, the homeowners' furnishing taste was eclectic, in a very architecturally traditional home. My goal was to showcase the home's best architectural feautures without losing the joie de vivre so evident in the home.
I gave the home owners an extensive list of the furniture and art that had to be removed (as I said, it was beautiful, but there was just too much of it) and minor condition issues that needed to be addressed. The following week the Moving Mountains team showed up and we began our work.




This beautiful Hancock Park estate is listed at $3.35M. For more information, contact the listing agent, Joanne McKenzie, Sothebys International Realty (310)888-3742. MLS#10-440285
