Monday Market Update: Love – It’s The Little Things

Sometimes a small detail is all it takes to make you fall in love… with your home! 

Happy Valentine’s Day from the Bobbi Decker Real Estate Team! While this day is traditionally one all about romance, we like to think of it as a universal day to appreciate all that you love – including your home! Today’s blog is inspired by a just-released read on Realtor.com titled ‘10 Funny Little Details That Made Homebuyers Fall in Love With a House.’


We’ve hand selected our 4 favorites below… and would love to hear what features drew you to the place that you call ‘the one.’


Light In All The Right Places: A homeowner from Charlotte, North Carolina detailed how his dream home came to light as soon as he saw a huge skylight! Running through the home’s living room, he loved how this feature could showcase the beauty of any season of time of day - snow, sunlight, rain and stars… this window to the world shows it all!


Calm In A Chaotic Space: The kitchen is often one’s favorite room of the home, and also the busiest! But when homeowner Jodi S. of Boston saw Tiffany blue subway tile in her home’s kitchen backsplash, she knew this was a place she would feel clam and cool no matter how much heat she was cooking up in the kitchen! She made an offer the day she saw that harmonious hue… and 15 years later loves it just as much.


Historic Outdoor Features: A home in Texas built around a 200-year old tree: Chris R. of Austin just knew that THIS was the place he needed to be. To him, and to many people, the grounding growth of trees symbolizes health and happiness, and it served as the ideal focal point for a courtyard setting where evening appetizers and morning coffee and pastries are enjoyed with ease.


What do you love about your home?! We love our property’s waterfront views and lush garden that overlooks it! There really is no way to describe the power of how a space can make you feel until you experience it for yourself. May that feeling find you at least once... or hopefully in many places!

All my best,
