$1,495,000

Boasting 4 Bedrooms plus home office or convertible 5th bedroom, 4 full baths plus guest / half bath, family room, breakfast room, huge porch overlooking secluded expansive private yard with rare heavy canopy of hundred year mature live oak trees, dramatic cathedral ceilings with rich wood trim and skylights that bring the outside in, custom designed details everywhere, large formal dining room, gourmet kitchen, Jerusalem stone flooring throughout, custom built ins, oversized three car garage with custom built ins and storage room, 1.38 acre lot with incredible views and room to expand everywhere!

The architect's principal intent was to integrate the home to the beautiful natural landscape as much as possible and live intimately with it, since from the beginning it was the natural landscape that he fell in love with when he bought the property. To that end, extensive use of glass brings the outside into the house, and through the use of the same Jerusalem stone on the floor inside the home as well as outside, it makes it purposely more difficult to distinguish the outside from the inside. Views of the beautiful landscape from inside the house are amplified by glass not only at eye level but also from above through the sloping windows which allow you to see the canopy of the huge trees and feel a greater kinship with them.

Noble materials that they are, wood and stone were extensively used which, in addition to being beautiful, make maintenance an easy matter, the stones having been sealed. The same holds true for the landscaping, with the use of easy to care indigenous plants throughout.
 

The home was designed around the landscape and not a single oak tree was disturbed, although seven palm trees were removed and replanted elsewhere. One of the main landscape design criteria also was to block the views to the neighbors as much as possible, and, indeed, views towards the neighbors are almost nonexistent from anywhere inside or outside the house.

HOME STAGING ADVICE - PREPARING TO SHOW YOUR HOME

Having an open house is a great way to give potential buyers an opportunity to get acquainted with your home, but it can also be a nerve-wracking experience for you as the current owner. So many people feel ill-equipped to make their homes appealing to potential buyers that they hire professional stagers to make their homes more marketable. While it's easy to understand why people will go to such great lengths to make sure that their homes have as much market appeal as possible, it's also relatively simple to stage it yourself and make it more appealing without spending an arm and a leg to do it. Here is some expert home staging advice.

A good book will hook you with the very first sentence. An open house is much the same. You need to do your best to hook potential buyers with your curb appeal. This could mean everything from making sure that your lawns are mowed and in good condition to repainting your house trim so that your home doesn't look dilapidated. It is clear that curb appeal is an important aspect of selling your home. Chances are that if a potential buyer doesn't like the way the exterior or your house looks, they won't bother to come inside.

The interior of your home is obviously important, as well. A potential buyer needs to be able to see him or herself living there. That's why it's important for your home not to scream, "This is my house!" at every turn. An excellent piece of home staging advice is to minimize accessories and accents. You want people to see your home, not your design preferences. Painting the walls a neutral color helps, too. That way, the potential buyers aren't overwhelmed by your favorite colors and can imagine the room in their own favorite color palette.

Obviously, you want to make sure that your home is as clean as possible when you invite potential buyers in. The sight of a giant dust bunny can so distract a potential buyer that they can only think of this dust bunny when they think of your home. You don't want to distract the buyer from the beauty of the home itself, especially not with such a negative item. With a little paint, a little elbow grease, and some good expert home staging advice, you can have your home ready for an open house in no time.

Boca Raton Real Estate Agent Optimistic About Homes For Sale in Palm Beach County, Florida

Elliot Koolik, leading real estate agent of Koolik Group Realty announced today that he is confident that the local housing market is picking back up. Koolik specializes in gated country club communities and luxury condominiums in the greater Boca Raton, Delray Beach and Highland Beach areas.

Since the beginning of June 2010, recent home sales for the Boca Raton real estate agent have increased. Koolik has sold twelve properties representing the selling side, while he represented the buyer for an additional three properties, totaling fifteen properties sold since early June of this year. Most buyers have been interested in Palm Beach County, Florida homes for sale.

In October, Koolik had two transactions pending on homes for sale in Palm Beach County, Florida; one of those properties is located in Woodfield Country Club in Boca Raton and was only on the market for nineteen days before the seller's accepted an offer. The other is located in nearby Woodfield Hunt Club and went under contract in just six days of being on the market.

The seller was in the process of relocating and therefore was pleasantly surprised when receiving the offer. "We knew that in today's market, it would take a bit of sacrificing to sell our home quickly; however, when we received an offer within 12% of the asking price, we could not have been happier." added the seller, Lewis Fogel.

"People are realizing that now is the time to buy; this market is extremely value driven as consumers want to know that they are getting the biggest bang for their buck and when they feel confident, they are not afraid to make an offer" added Koolik.
