Sold in Columbia, SC in 2 Days
6735 Formosa Drive — Columbia, South Carolina
The Situation
The sellers of 6735 Formosa Drive had lived in the home since 2023 and had invested significant time and money renovating and improving the property.
When it came time to sell, their goal was not simply to put the home on the market. They wanted to protect the investment they had made and make sure buyers recognized the value of the improvements.
That was especially important because they were selling in a slower market, where buyers had more choices and many homes were taking longer to sell.
6735 Formosa Drive offered a combination buyers were looking for: a renovated, one-level home with 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, multiple living spaces, an updated kitchen, a private owner’s suite, and a fenced backyard in an established location convenient to Forest Acres and Columbia.
Our job was to make sure those improvements stood out immediately.
The Strategy
We focused the marketing around the renovations and the quality of the home's presentation.
The sellers had already done the hard work of improving the property. Our job was to make sure buyers could see that investment the moment they discovered the home online.
We used professional photography to showcase the renovated spaces and highlight the details that separated 6735 Formosa Drive from competing homes.
Particular attention was given to the remodeled kitchen with designer tile backsplash, gold accents, pendant lighting, stainless appliances, and a vented hood, along with the home's one-level floor plan, multiple living areas, updated owner's suite, flexible spaces, and fenced backyard.
Rather than allowing the renovations to get lost in a standard listing presentation, we made them the centerpiece of how the home was presented to the market.
The goal was to create a strong first impression and make buyers immediately understand why this home deserved their attention.
The Results
6735 Formosa Drive sold in just 2 days.
That result was particularly significant in a slower market, when many competing properties were taking considerably longer to attract a buyer.
By professionally presenting the renovations and making the sellers' improvements immediately visible to buyers, we were able to generate strong interest almost immediately after the home hit the market.
For these sellers, the objective was to protect the investment they had made in the property.
Selling in just two days demonstrated the importance of making sure a renovated home is presented in a way that allows buyers to recognize its value from the very beginning.
Situated on a quiet street between Forest Acres and Arcadia Lakes, 6735 Formosa Drive offers the perfect combination of location, style, and functionality, with 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms all on one level with a .43 acre lot.
The entry opens into a spacious family room with plenty of room for comfortable everyday living and entertaining. Hardwood flooring adds warmth and character to the home. At the back of the home, the recently renovated kitchen stands out with beautiful countertops, a designer tile backsplash, gold accents, pendant lighting, recessed lighting, stainless steel appliances, and a new vented hood. The adjoining dining area overlooks the fenced backyard, creating a bright and inviting space for meals and gatherings. Just off the kitchen, a versatile flex room offers options for a sitting area, expanded dining space, or entertaining. A convenient mudroom/laundry room is also located off the kitchen.
The owner’s suite is privately positioned on the right side of the home and offers plenty of space for larger furniture, along with a walk-in closet. The en suite bathroom features a large walk-in shower and a double vanity.
On the opposite side of the home, you’ll find three additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms, creating a functional split-bedroom layout with space for family, guests, or a home office. Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a full hall bathroom, while bedroom 4 has its own private full bathroom.
The backyard is fenced in, and there is plenty of room to add a driveway along the left side of the home and a garage or workshop in the back. Additional updates include a newer HVAC system and a Nest smart thermostat, adding efficiency, comfort, and convenience.
