House of the Week: Living History in "Everyone's Home Town"


We're back! After a long hiatus, during which I completed my first flip house in the Wissahickon neighborhood (recap post coming soon!) and made a baby, I'm back and dedicating myself back to this blog! 

I'm still very much in favor of delivering my own content, but with the demands of clients and a new kiddo, you'll also see some shared content and guest posts on here too. 

But on to the good stuff... 

 To roll out the red carpet on The Little Realtor, I'm doing a month of nothing but home design, decor, & tips and tricks, either just for fun or to get your home ready for the Spring market. But, to start, I'm bringing back "House of the Week" with a charming, albeit more expensive, Victorian single in Media! 

----

Media Boro, often called "Everyone's Home Town" is a quaint mecca of Victorian homes, 1920s bungalows and the ever-popular walkable lifestyle with a plethora of restaurants, shops and even a Trader Joes! Its rare to find a home there that combines all of that, the charm of a historical property AND modern amenities but 426 N Jackson St seems to combine it all!


426 N Jackson St, Media, PA 19063 - $650,000 

5 beds, 2 full baths, 2830 estimated square feet 

Additional perks: Front porch AND sunroom, large laundry room, stained glass windows,
built-in bookcases, and can be converted to a duplex if you are looking for rental income!


Open House Tues, April 2nd, 12-2 (for agent-represented buyers only)

Accessibility in Good Design

 I've been impressed lately with some of amount of accessible design features I've seen around as of late. By "accessible design", I mean home decor, renovations and design that is accessible to those with a physical impairment or disability.  First I noticed that back in March, Better Homes and Gardens did a great feature on a home designed with a wheelchaired child in mind.  Yes, it was a rancher and mid-century modern in design so it leant itself to move open-flow and clean line design. But even if this isn't your style, there were some great ideas here!  Check it out here  Then I saw Southern Living did a great home build with "adaptive design" in mind. This was a great feature because it reviewed new construction and slight changes in thinking to make just a welcoming, easy access home for all guests.  As noted in the article,  " If you’re going to be a good host, particularly from the Southern point of view, where we’re all about hospitality, ...

All About Green!

 Bright white and moody colors will likely never go out of style but we are seeing more and more mid-tones come back on trend (last time mid-tones were cool were probably around 2000 when Pottery Barn was THE word).  One of the ones I am seeing most often is a gray-green. Its a friendly color that pairs well with more modern tones (think the grays, blacks and whites we have been seeing) but warms nicely with wood tones and natural materials.  Apparently SW sees this too as their color of the year (and the month of Jan) is Evergreen Fog.  Want to see some of the best ways to use it?  Loving these cabinets in green!  Again, working well hear with both bronze/black and earth tones  Love this more traditional-eclectic look. Looks much more saturated in a dark space!  But also a great pairing for a mid-century boho look  Great combo color - bold but not overly so. Here looking more truly green against the dark blue Whatever your style, this is ...

Breaking Down the Commission Headlines and the NAR Settlement

The news right now around real estate is ripe with "The 6% Commission is Dead" or how buying and selling real estate is about to become a whole lot cheaper.  Sounds tantalizing, right? Because often news is sensationalism and this one is no different.  Did something actually change?  Yes, a little.  NAR (the National Association of Realtors - the trade organization that makes a real estate agent a 'Realtor' by a separate code of ethics and educational criteria) settled a case that brought about a few, minor changes.  1. It eliminated any requirement that listing brokers or sellers must make offers of compensation to buyers brokers.  2. It prohibits sellers and their agents from making offers of compensation on the MLS and disclosing any compensation and requires the elimination of all compensation fields on the MLS.  3. It requires MLS members working with buyers to enter into written agreements with those buyers.  So what changed?  Not much....
