All I did was....Home Staging Success Stories

Michelle Finnamore of Advantage Staging has been busy along with 10 other designers at the fabulous Estate on the Bay Designer showhome makeover for the upcoming United Way 50th Anniversary open house tour.

I chose to stage the exterior grounds including the front door area, the cabana, the top of the 55 foot boat slip and the fish pond. It has been a pleasure working with the many suppliers who have graciously contributed to the fund raising efforts for the United Way. Wander through the home and grounds and see the lifestyle of lakeside estate living first hand.

Michelle Finnamore, owner of Advantage Staging has been invited

to participate in the

United Way 5oth Anniversary Estate on the Bay  Designer Showcase.

Arch and Helen Brown, well known local philanthropists, have generously donated the use of their beautiful home on Kempenfelt Bay for a complete design transformation!

The Estate on the Bay, located at 1 Barrie Terrace, Barrie, Ontario, sits on 1.3 spectacular acres, with 250 feet of frontage on the north side of beautiful Kempenfelt Bay. The home is approximately 10,000 square feet with a covered  boat slip that can house a 55’ boat.

      Advantage staging will be highlighting the focal

                                                                                                         points of the extensive landscaped grounds

        as well as the top of the 55 foot boat slip that overlooks the bay.

This unique occasion includes a silent auction, a tour of the Brown home decorated and furnished by area designers with entertainment throughout the evening.

The home will be open to the public to tour September 18-20, 2009.  Stay tuned for updated photos of the finished design concept.

All proceeds will support United Way of Greater Simcoe County.
