After completing an extensive down-to-the-studs remodel in 2000, my clients cherished their home for over two decades. But with their kids grown and styles evolving, it was time for an update to appeal to today’s modern buyer. As they prepared to downsize and embrace their next chapter, I took on a full-scale refresh, touching every room to maximize value and showcase the home’s potential.

To make the listing truly shine, I even negotiated with a neighbor to modify their yard landscaping—a small change that had a big impact. The result? A beautifully updated home that felt like new, yielding an impressive return on investment and securing top dollar for my clients' retirement dreams.
