Usually when I look at these I cringe as I can see so many things that jump out, but on the whole you have done a great job of house,
but you want some straight input on things that will make a big difference to buyers relationship with the house.
picture one,
curb appeal, your house looks well kept from the first photo, but bland and un rememberable,
simple improvements suggestions,
Two very large pots either side of the door with something tall and structural growing in them, planted with colour around the bottom,
the brick wall with the window in to the left of the garage, could do with some roses growing up it, make a boarder along that wall, put some mature planting and plenty of colour.
what do you use the gravel area for?
could you put some boarders along inside the perimeter walls, and get planting, your neighbours house has lots going on, it makes yours look bare, foliage and colour.
even a standard tree/rose(yellow) in the middle of the triangle grass, in a small circular bed with some plants around the bottom would be a quick fix, to make that space less bland.
picture two,
lovely sunlight, turn the shade for the purpose of this picture we see the join, or hold it up out of the way for picture, try to take this again with the sunlight.
picture three,
Is there a better time of day to take this picture does it get direct sunlight at any time of day?
it feels slightly cluttered, the sofas are too big for the space, or that is the impression from the photo,
the coffee table does not need to be in shot, the floor lamp should be behind the sofa,
the black lamp, is not needed for this picture, it size is making the space look smaller than it is, either centre the brown frame, or put all items on that alcove space to the far right,
picture 4,
move that lamp, I know the base is heavy, (bf has two, i have helped her move six times) there must be a better angle to take a photo from,
get rid of the candle stick for the purposes of this shot, try to lose the the chimney breast and mantle piece.
is there a time when sun floods into this room?
picture 5,
you see the edge of the door, see the edge of the picture, unless your house is falling over photos must be straight, add a special orchid (tasteful pot)something dramatic, as it needs something organic to take your eye to the garden beyond.
picture 6,
hold the camera back against the wall use a wide angle lens, put something funky in the glass cabinet , heinz beans, heinz tomato soup, anything that has an iconic, distinctive
colour, shape logo, dress that wall cabinet, maybe a very nice print tea towel folded and hanging on the cooker.
picture 7, needs to be straight, you can always see what it will look like with the lights on. Oh and the clock should always say 10.10 so it is a smile.
picture 8,
any time of day it gets sunlight? just straighten up and use wide angle.
picture 9,
get rid of the TV, and other stuff on the top of drawers,
try different angles, wide lens, if you can get a shot without neighbours, brilliant, and when the sun is coming in,
picture 10, sunlight and better shots,
picture 11,
mmmmmm wider sunlight and lose the cot, get a travel cot out which you can hide for viewings, and make that room another bedroom. sorry but it does really help.
picture 12, more sun, move the blinds a bit so the neighbours red brick does not jump out at you.
picture 13, all the stuff on the basin and window sill has to go for photo, have it all in a basket and hide for viewing, more sun, and one slat is jumping out as it is squint.
picture 14, centre the shelves for picture, put the basin stuff in basket,
picture 15, a few towels neatly folded (labels away) and put in middle never at the top, loo seat is down so good, amazing how many are photoed up, full loo roll, also good.
picture 16,
It feels as if you ran out of steam in the garden, your home is going to appeal to people who are not going to want to do much to the house, it is not a fixer upper, so you need to tackle this, as it needs to be another completed room,
It's really dark even though it is in sunlight, the lawn looks healthy, I don't think the patio heater brings anything to the look, handy, but we don't need to see it,
fill those beds with a riot of colour, and structural planting
paint some of it, as a quick fix, too much dark stained wood, and no plant life. even some big pots with herbs and colour will make that end space nicer, a jug of pimms and a couple of glasses won't hurt on the table, and a nice pot with marigolds. you want it to look like it is hard to drag yourself out of the garden room.
picture 7, fill those beds with colour, dress that table, get rid of heater and make sure it is sunny,
and what is missing, any shots back down the garden? are you avoiding something?
and your garage, a big selling point, empty it out, clean paint and dress it as a very usable space, take a photo, then refill it with the stuff you are storing, at least the buyers then have an image in their heads.
it will sell, don't worry but if you could do that last push and bring the front and back spaces up to the same standard as the inside, it will help the buyers to fall in love.
