In a world inundated by the allure of HGTV and the suspect promises of DIY, everyone aspires to be a part-time home decorator. But in the real world, there are few people who possess the talent, artful eye, and professional design skill of Andrea Van Groningen.
Her aesthetic is instantly recognizable and her results speak for themselves: she and her team transform vacant houses into homes.
Her business, The Avenue Home Staging, has burgeoned into the premier staging and design service in Central California. Over the past 7 years, her crew has staged over 400 homes under her watchful eye and skillful hands.
Not only does she deliver a top notch product, everything she does is uniquely customized. She designs for the individual home, drawing inspiration from its time period, architecture, and existing color palette.
Each home is precisely curated with hours of planning, purchasing, and in many cases, creating custom pieces of art and decor.
Being a mom of 6(!!!), a wife of an equally talented husband, and an entrepreneur and employer of 9 is enough to make any normal person wither away into a shell of their former self.
But Andrea’s inner light and love for cultivating an emotional experience and connection for each home’s buyers rejuvenates her.
The future of the Avenue looks much like its present: a legacy of trust and awe among realtors, homeowners, and her community. And a steadfast commitment to remaining the #1 product and service available in her category.
You can follow and fall in love with Andrea and co. on all the platforms: @theavenue.staginganddesign on Insta, @theavenuehomestaging on TikTok, and www.theavenuehomestaging.com on the interwebs.
