Hosted By: Build It Green
While attending the National Association of Realtors Conference in San Francisco I attend a Sustainable Homes Tour hosted by Build It Green, featuring Greenpoint Rated Homes.
I was able to tour a GreenPoint Rated Home and learn directly from the builder and the architect about the process and requirements of achieving a LEED Rating.

In Princeton’s Brookstone enclave, this east-facing, brick-wrapped Colonial has been brought completely up-to-date with fresh, youthful renovations that handle modern life with ease and style. Custom millwork of the highest quality fills the home, showcased by a graceful, hand-crafted bannister, which gives architectural presence to the 2-story front hall, and cherry paneled library with ceiling-high bookcases and a sunburst fireplace mantel. Four sets of French doors open to tiered bluestone terraces and gardens of lilies, irises, and monarch-attracting milkweed, framing the back of the home. A fully-fenced, garden-party backyard dazzles with views of a stacked stone wall, towering trees, and a bird’s eye view of babbling Stony Brook. Crown molding, recessed lights, and hardwood floors fill the 1st floor, including the living room, warm with a marble-framed gas fireplace, and formal dining room with a bay casement windows. Cherry cabinets, top-line stainless appliances, and granite counters gleam in the recently renovated kitchen. The mudroom/laundry room centers on the ultimate gas dryer/steamer – never send your sweaters out again! Front and back stairs rise to the 2nd floor, where you’ll be greeted by the carpeted family room, whose utility changes as needs change: playroom, hangout, movie night haven. A half bath is nearby – the home’s third! Three of the 4 bedrooms are suites with renovated baths and good closets. The master suite is so special with a closet-lined dressing room and a built-in marble dressing table, plus a beautiful bath that features a multi-jet shower with a rain fixture. A finished 3rd floor hosts a walk-in cedar closet and a 5th bedroom currently used as a study. Providing peace of mind are a replaced electric panel and furnace, plus a generator. This leafy location is pretty much perfect: an easy 2 mile drive to downtown Princeton, and within strolling distance to Johnson Park School and Greenway Meadows Park!
Keeping your home in “model home” condition to show to prospective buyers is not an easy task. As your real estate agent I understand how difficult it is to show your home at a moment’s notice when you have pets and children living with you.
One of the goals I will set with you is to sell your home in the shortest amount of time with the least inconvience to you and your family. In order to reach this goal of a quick sale one of the many recommendations I will make is to spruce up your home to sell. Of course I will bring my stager to your home but sprucing up goes beyond staging.
Completing the following list of recommendations will indeed cost you money; however, the benefit to you will be selling your home faster to the current buyer pool within the range of your anticipated selling price.
By following these recommendations prospective buyers will see that you have cared for your home and they will want to your home theirs!
