Two Open Houses This Saturday — Come See What We’re Showing
I’m hosting two open houses this Saturday, and I’d love to see you at one or both.
One is a beautiful log home on 10 acres perfect for country living. The other is a brand-new home packed with modern upgrades and finishes. Two completely different properties, two very different buyers — but both represent what’s moving in our market right now.
Let me tell you about each one.
963 Pratt Road, Blanchester — Country Living on 10 Fenced Acres
Saturday, July 25 from 11 AM to 1 PM
This is the property for buyers who want to escape to the country.
A beautiful four-bedroom, 2.5-bath log home situated on 10 fenced acres. Set back off the road for privacy, this property offers exactly what people are looking for when they say they want “country living.”

Why this property works:
The 10 fenced acres give you options. Want horses? You can do that. Livestock? You have the space. Hobby farming? This property is set up for it. There are multiple paddocks and a lean-to for animals. This isn’t theoretical country living — this is actual working land.
The home itself has been well-maintained and thoughtfully updated. New roof. Fresh exterior stain. New furnace. New outside steps. New soffit wood. New carpet in the primary bedroom. Both full bathrooms have been completely remodeled with modern finishes while keeping the rustic charm that makes a log home special.
The main-floor primary suite has a private en-suite bath — that’s convenience and privacy.
Inside, you get the warmth and character that only a log home provides. Spacious living areas. A wraparound porch perfect for relaxing and taking in the views. And here’s a bonus: an above-ground pool for summer entertaining.
This is a well-maintained property that blends country living, recreation, and modern updates. It’s the kind of home families talk about when they say, “This is our dream.”

454 Red Maple Lane, Wilmington — New Construction Quality Without the Wait
Saturday, July 25 from 2 PM to 4 PM
This one is for buyers who don’t want to wait to build.
A stunning three-bedroom, 2-bath home less than a year old, packed with upgrades throughout. This is new construction quality with all the modern finishes buyers are looking for — and it’s ready to move into today.

Why this property works:
The finishes are impressive. Quartz countertops. Luxury vinyl tile flooring. Craftsman-style doors. Smooth ceilings with tray ceilings in the living room and hallways. Double tray ceiling in the primary bedroom. Board-and-batten trim accents that add character. A stone fireplace with a wood accent wall that serves as a beautiful focal point.
The primary suite is spa-like. Walk-in shower with a rain shower head and ceramic tile seat — this is the kind of detail you pay extra for in new construction, and it’s here.
The practical details matter too. First-floor laundry (huge convenience). Ceiling fans throughout. An oversized two-car garage with a four-foot bump-out for extra storage.
The basement is partially finished with an egress window, giving you options for future use. A 16×20 Trex deck for outdoor entertaining. An 8×10 storage building for tools and equipment. City water and sewer. Spectrum internet availability. And a Kohler whole-house generator for peace of mind.
This is a home where everything is already done. No surprises. No projects. Just move in and enjoy.

What Both Properties Have in Common
Two very different homes. Two very different buyers. But here’s what matters: both of these properties are positioned well in today’s market.
The log home appeals to buyers searching for country living with character and space. The new construction appeals to buyers who want modern finishes and move-in readiness. Both are getting attention because they’re right for their buyers.
If you’re thinking about selling your home — whether you live in a log cabin or a brand-new home, whether you have acres or a small lot — the principle is the same.
You need to know what your home is worth. You need to understand what buyers are looking for right now. You need to position your home to appeal to the right buyers.
That starts with a professional market analysis.
If You’re Thinking About Selling
Come to one of these open houses this Saturday. Not because you have to — but because it’s a chance to see what prepared homes look like in today’s market.
Walk through. See the details. Notice what’s been updated. Notice how these homes are staged. Notice why buyers are interested.
Then ask yourself: what’s my home worth? What would preparation look like for my home? What could I do to appeal to the right buyers?
The answer starts with a free home valuation. No obligation. No pressure. Just honest information about what your home is worth and what the market is responding to right now.
