When selling your house, you must shouse potential buyers a vision. Selling just a room with stuff in it will not work. You have to entice your buyers.
Show them a house where:
* they envision themselves relaxing after a hard day at work
* where they envision themselves throwing a bbq for friends
* where they envision themselves raising their children
