Home Staging is the key to a quick and profitable property sale
Spring is widely regarded as the prime season for selling property. With longer days, brighter light, blossom on the trees and a renewed energy in the market, it’s the perfect time to sell your home. However, with the global market somewhat volatile, and with recent changes to stamp duty, property isn’t selling as quickly as it once was.
That’s where Anna Wakeham Interiors can help. Our expert team understands exactly how to prepare your home for sale—styling it with elegance, intention, and your buyer in mind. We focus on showcasing your property in its very best light, highlighting its strengths while creating an emotional connection for prospective buyers.
Why Home Staging Matters: Increase the appeal and maximise the value
Today’s buyers are increasingly design aware. Many scroll through perfectly styled homes on social media, and their expectations are higher than ever. A beautifully styled home doesn’t just look appealing—it creates a feeling, and in property terms, feelings sell homes.
Styling is about more than just good taste, it’s strategic. It’s about helping buyers envision themselves in the space, guiding them to see your home’s full potential. At Anna Wakeham Interiors, we understand the psychology of buying. We know what works visually, how to direct attention to key features, and how to create flow from room to room. We’re Interior Designers and staging experts, after all!
Our design style is timeless, so whether you’re selling a city apartment or a country cottage, our goal is to create an environment that feels both aspirational and authentic. This is of course tailored to YOUR target buyer – no two properties are the same.
How Our Home Staging Service Works
At Anna Wakeham Interiors, we begin every project with a thorough consultation. We take the time to understand your home, your goals, and the type of buyer you’re hoping to attract – if you have chosen an agent we’re happy to liaise with them to ensure we get things right. From there, we create a bespoke styling plan that’s designed to appeal to your specific market while showcasing the unique character of your property.
We consider everything from spatial planning and lighting to texture, colour palettes, and focal points. Our approach is detail-driven and always client-focused. We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all solution, every property is treated as a unique opportunity to tell a story buyers want to be part of.
Our home staging service is bespoke, but a home staging service might include:
- Soft furnishings and decorative accents to introduce warmth and cohesion
- Furniture reconfiguration to enhance space and flow (this is key)
- Expert colour curation to set the right mood and tone
- Sourcing of accessories and artwork to elevate the home’s character
- Minor updates or advice on finishes to ensure the home feels up-to-date and polished
This will help create a beautifully presented, thoughtfully styled home that captures attention, photographs brilliantly, and connects emotionally with prospective buyers. We want your buyer to envisage themselves living here.
First impressions are key: Creating a connection through design
Buyers often make a decision about a property within moments of walking through the door. It’s not just about price or layout—it’s about how a space makes them feel. That’s why the right styling is so crucial.
Our aim is to create moments throughout the home that resonate. A beautifully styled reading nook, peaceful and cosy bedroom or a clean, light-filled kitchen. Each of these touches helps the buyer imagine themselves living there, and that’s when the magic happens.
