Question by SB: Staging my home for sale, but not moving out: What should I do with my elliptical machine?
Staging my home for sale, but not moving out: What should I do with my elliptical machine?

I have a relatively small 3 bedroom 1.5 bath ranch style house from the early 1980s with bedrooms on one side of the house and kitchen/dining/living room on the other.

It’s only about 1100-1200 square feet, but the space is used well and “feels” larger than it is due to a great layout.

I have done a lot of work on the inside and out have this one staging issue left:

I use my elliptical trainer every day and want to continue to, but the only place it fits in my house is in this perfect little enclave in the living room where there is a notch cut out of the wall.

Problem is, that notch is one of the best architectural features of the whole house and could really be used to sell the house by placing an entry table, secretary. wine storage, large mirror, beautiful plant, or something along those lines there.

That little notch is the difference between “ordinary aging smallish
3, 1.5” and “wow, this place is pretty nice for an affordable first home”.

The main part of the house is pained a warm golden color, neutral but warm. I was thinking of painting the notch an eggplant color to make it stand out and decorating it for sale…but…what do I do with my elliptical – it won’t fit anywhere else? Should I

1) Buy a pretty privacy screen and a plant, and still paint it eggplant?

2) Leave it as it and forget about it?

3) Give up my elliptical and store it while I’m trying to sell?

4) Other?

I’d say for sure, don’t store your elliptical, it’s part of your life, and leaving it in the house makes it feel personal, not just “staged”. Can you move the elliptical to a bedroom? The home we just bought had a treadmill in the office area (technically the 2nd bedroom). I didn’t find it annoying – I thought it was a great use of space. It might be a pain to move it somewhere else, but it sounds like the niche in the living room needs to be on display – and not everyone will want an elliptical in their living room.

Demanding wine collectors will always be in the market for a stable and secure system to organize their valuable and in some cases costly bottles of wine. A wall mounted wine rack is an excellent alternative. It might be firmly mounted on whatever wall in your abode, garage, cellar or restaurant.
