Grey Stone Designs LLC, Home Staging Services in Greenwich CT
When it comes to selling your home in 2023, I have found that staging your home before listing is essential to getting the highest offer in the quickest amount of time.
Working in Greenwich CT real estate comes with its perks, which includes collaborating with the best local businesses in the area! My network ranges from lawyers to photographers to mortgage advisors. But, today is all about my go-to for any and all home staging services, Grey Stone Designs Home Staging.
Founded by my good friend, Kate DeCarlo, GSD Home Staging shares my goal of getting our clients to a faster, successful sale. Taking each home’s unique features into account, GSD offers multiple options for homeowners at every step of the process (and we’ll get to that a little bit later!)
Together, we’ve worked on many projects in the Greenwich and Old Greenwich areas – all of which have sold above-asking in such a short period of time.
Why You Need to Stage Your Home Before Listing
Home staging is an investment opportunity for sellers to capture buyers quickly and sell faster. Grey Stone Designs focuses on grabbing interest and generating excitement by showcasing what each property uniquely has to offer its potential owners – and they nail it every time!
Let’s look at the stats... Here are the latest insights on why you should stage your home before listing:
82% of buyers’ agents agree that staging a home makes it easier for a potential homebuyer to see themselves living in the property (National Association of Realtors)
A professionally staged home spends 73% less time on the market compared to those without staging. (Professional Staging)
Staged homes on the market sold for 25% more than homes without staging. (Realtor Magazine)
40% of buyers arrange to look at a home they have seen staged online (National Association of Realtors)
Essentially, staging your home will only benefit you in the long run! GSD offers a wide range of services, depending on your budget, circumstances, and goals.
GSD Home Staging Services
When working with GSD, they are always considerate of each home’s unique properties. Which service you choose is dependent on what your home needs in order to stand out and sell quickly.
Here are their range of services:
Home Staging: Transform your blank canvas into a perfectly lived-in property. This is typically my go-to selection when it comes to vacant properties and new builds!
Redesign: Stage while you are still at home by blending existing furnishings with added GSD pieces. This service includes rearranging, decorative accents, and modern styling.
Paint, Floor, Lighting & General Consultation: Enhance the basics of your home to make the best first impression! GSD will choose the right colors, wall coverings, flooring, and lighting. Once chosen, you’ll be connected to one of their trusted partners.
Luxury Rentals: If you’re renting a property and want to make it feel more like home, GSD will outfit the property with everything you need to feel comfortable.

Project Spotlight: 22 Brookridge Drive Greenwich, CT
I worked with Grey Stone Designs on one of my favorite active listings in Greenwich CT: 22 Brookridge Drive.
Starting out with a blank canvas, Kate transformed this property into a modern, stylish, and (most importantly) comfortable home. We combined our knowledge of the CT real estate market, what would attract the buying audiences, and current design trends to create a home that is luxurious yet approachable.
With Kate’s help, this listing was named “House of the Week” by Serendipity Magazine.
