Best Home Improvements for Your Dollar

Spring is Coming!

If you are thinking about selling in 2014 -

Remember

First Impressions are Lasting Impressions!

With daily use - you may not even notice your front door.  

A new steel door makes a great impression and yields 96.6% return on your investment.  If your front door is in great condition - you can paint it and replace hardware for a great first impression.

Buyers want outdoor space - if you have a deck add a water feature or

outdoor fireplace.

Garage Doors - Are you Serious- Are They Important?

An Upscale or Mid-range garage door will recoup 83% of 

the investment.

New Painted Garage Doors - the Best!

Get 73% return on your investment. Replace fixtures, your mirrors, lights and repaint the  space - Jazz it Up with Crown Molding.

Don't forget - Replace the towels with fresh fluffy ones .

Does the caulk around the tub need refreshing?

I have said in the past, Kitchens & Bathrooms sells Houses.

Buyers look very carefully at Kitchen & Bathrooms and

You should too!

Replace appliances with stainless steel, paint cabinets, update hardware.

Replace counter with granite or a solid surface. No more than

three objects on countertops. Remove all magnets and pictures from refrigerator.

These two rooms need to be "q-tip" clean.

Thursday's Travels - Historic Shepherdstown

Oldest Town in West Virginia -

My husband and I  had never been to  Shepherdstown until our son bought and has painstakingly and still painstakingly restored a house that was built in 1760's . More about the house in a later post. Our first visit to this area , we fell in love with the historic houses in downtown, the college smack in the middle of town. The energy is alive and happening in Shepherdstown.

 

 

 

Restaurants in Shepherdstown are everywhere! I have not had the opportunity to try them all, but I will tell you about two of them that can't go wrong. Betty's Restaurant is a Shepherdstown landmark and the home of the best sausage gravy or chipped beef gravy around. Not a place to count calories for sure, but if you are looking for good old-fashioned home cooking - Betty's is the place. More than likely there will be a wait.

 

 

 

 

The Blue Moon Café - has everything you would want in dining. The setting to begin with, then you have the organic offerings which is always a treat. Music, wine, & atmosphere! What more could you ask for. Except I did ask for a candle for my table the night we dined there - it just seemed fitting.
When there I recommend to start your experience with the Tuscan Bean Bruschetta or Cucumber Bruschetta.  Love, Love, Love, the Hummus Plate.  Hmmm!  I'm ready to go now.

 

 

 

 

Lodging in Shepherdstown.  On our visits we stay with our son, which is always a treat.

If I had to choose a place to rest my head, I would definitely stay at the Thomas Shepherd Inn.

Located in the heart of historic Shepherdstown, the restored 1868 federal style property offers personal attention.  They advertise an elegant décor, beautiful antiques and a relaxing atmosphere.

Six charming room with private baths.

 

 

 

 

 

Things to Do & See.

 

Shepherdstown offers riveting festivals of the performing arts. Shepherdstown Museum at the Entler Hotel takes you back to its history.  Shepherdstown Opera House shows the best in independent films.

We cannot forget Christmas in Shepherdstown, I can just imagine all of the shoppes, and

eateries decked out with little white lights and wreaths on the windows. Definitely need

to put this on my Bucket List for the holiday season.

 

 

 

 

Thank you for coming with me  on my Thursday's Travels today.  For more information on

Shepherdstown, make sure to visit their website. 

 

Let me know if you make it to Betty's or the Blue Moon Cafe'.

 

 

 

Let's Get Staging & Get It SOLD!

 

Have A Great Day!
