The Sumner Invasion

By Living Room Realty, August 29, 2018

I really loved selling this home. The sellers were very meticulous yet laid back.  The home was bought in disrepair just 4 years ago.  They placed a lot of care and thought into the small things as well as the “bones”.  The EPA certified wood stove, the paneled walls, the added kitchen nook, a custom built wood shed.  So many things, and too many things to list, yet the home sold itself.  I just opened the door and had 36 people come through.  Multiple showings, at least 10-12 per day, until the open house on the weekend and approximately another 30 plus people each day came.  All with the same comments:  “It’s so cute”,  “We love this area”,  “That kitchen nook is perfect”.  Then as people explored the basement with a large wide hallway the house just gets better.  A separate retreat, 3rd bedroom, was calming and functional at the same time.  Multiple offers and most over the asking price, 6 days later, we had a deal the sellers were comfortable taking.  Now just 2.5 weeks later we’re closing and my clients get to travel and explore the world.  Sometimes a home is more than a place to settle in.  Sometimes it’s a snapshot of your life.  A place to start a journey into the unknown and it guides you to the place you didn’t know was there.  This home served its purpose and it will start another.  Congratulations abound!
