Styling for a Winter Sale
Thinking of selling your home this winter?
A top Australian interior stylist shares simple - and surprising - tips on boosting buyer appeal as the days grow cold and dark.
Cold Comfort
Early autumn and spring are peak season for Melbourne real estate. However, winter should not be overlooked. In fact, selling your home as the temperature drops has advantages: Less competition and more serious buyers in the market. That said, a cold weather sale has challenges, but there are simple solutions.
To entice buyers a home must be warm and inviting. A roaring fire and woody scented candles do wonders. But for sellers, especially in the prestige market, there are other ways to easily elevate winter appeal. To find out how, we turned to a celebrated interior designer: Melbourne-based Simone Haag who curates spaces in Australia’s most beautiful homes.

Milan Magic
Simone does not style homes for sale, but is brimming with ideas on the subject. Even more so after returning from Milan’s furniture fair, where she was the only Australian invited to design a ‘room’ in the coveted Palazzo Donizetti: “I saw a resurgence in melted organic metals especially pewter. A rich earthy hue, somewhere between chocolate brown and maroon, was everywhere. New trends like these can be easily embraced for some winter magic.”
Lamps Everywhere
But its lamps that are top of Simone’s hit list: “They are the easiest, and cheapest way to make a big impact. Buy beautiful new lamps and put them everywhere to banish the gloom. Consider unexpected places, like cordless lamps on a kitchen bench or bathroom vanity. I call lamps ‘functional art’ because they can also be sculptural pieces.”

Rug Up
Another trick to add warmth and winter appeal is to dose up on rugs: “It’s time to invest in that rug you have always wanted. I especially love Kashmiri wool rugs in a mono colour. Like lamps, use rugs unexpectedly. Layer them over carpet, put a runner in the kitchen and overlap rugs in unusual junctions. This gives rooms a customised bespoke feel.”
Dark Walls
Instead of fighting winter’s gloom by brightening a room with white walls, Simone says lean into the darkness: “Make a bold statement by re-painting a room in deep rich tones like olive green, dark tan, and moody blue. For a less dramatic touch try putty colours. This will really wow buyers.”

Plush and Lush
Rich layered textures make a home warm and enticing: “Consider draped curtains in linen or velvet; sumptuous chairs in boucle or faux fur; and move away from cotton bed linen. Embrace quilt overlays and bed blankets that fall to the floor.”
Branch Out
Don’t try to replicate that spring feeling by filling your house with bright flowers: “Instead of hunting around for pricey blooms, celebrate the stark natural beauty of winter. Fill large vases with bare branches and winter leaves. By showcasing the glories of a Melbourne winter, you will also be showcasing your home to its full potential.”
