I’m stalking in the Melbourne suburb of Northcote today and what is on my real estate radar is this light, bright, family home. The modern renovation and extension takes what is a simple wooden cottage and transforms it into a four bedroom, open plan home with seamless indoor-outdoor living. It’s up for auction with a guide price of $1,800,000 – $1,980,000 AUD. (And yes Australian house prices are still crazy.) Link here while it lasts.

Today I’m stalking on two continents and it’s serendipitous that they just happen to be Australia and Canada.  Even better the Canadian property belongs to a long time reader. I’m teasing with just a couple of images from each. Click on the link to see more and good luck with your sale Matthieu.

I’m in my favourite Melbourne suburb of Fitzroy and I’m stalking one of my favourite house types, the warehouse conversion. Plenty of light, plenty of art, library on the landing and just a hop, skip and jump to all the inner-city cool that is Fitzroy. What more could I want?  Oh maybe the estimated $1 800 000 to $2 000 000 to buy it. Link here while it lasts.

OK I admit I’m choosy and hard to please. I’ve been stalking leftovers. You know … those listings that are not quite right, have bad photos or you need to show me more photos please! House is amazing, furniture is deplorable and vice versa, wide angle lens stretch the rooms waaaaaaaay out of shape.  Can’t quite put my finger on it listings with something that has me nodding “yes”. This week’s finds include houses big and small near the water, stylish apartments, a church hall and family homes with open plan additions. Click on the images to head to the listings.

Staging a home for sale is quite a task. De-personalizing and appealing to the broadest range of potential buyers is what it’s all about. These photos of a beautiful, million dollar home in Washington, D.C. were sent over by the Trevor Moore team and is a great example of the importance of staging and getting some really good photographs for a listing.
