A Mid-Century Sanctuary for Sara & Cece

By Tracey Henkels, August 20, 2020

Congratulations to Sara, Dan and Cece!!

Sara, Dan and Cece set out to find a great home in the Madison High School district and they ended up with so much more than they expected! They found a stunning Mid-Century sanctuary with character galore. It’s the kind of place where just being home feels special. As we are all experiencing these days, our homes mean more than they did before COVID. Many people are finding that they are living in our homes differently now. This is a home that feels like it’s part of the family!

There are some gorgeous midcentury signature features that help make this place special. The decorative mid-century molded wall made with sugarcane. A custom desk made with local black walnut.

And the gorgeous shou sugi ban burned wood exterior and fantastic midcentury breezeway.

I’m so excited for my dear clients to enjoy this lovely home!

She/Her

Tracey Henkels attributesĀ her disciplined nature and relentless work ethic to a childhood spent rising and retiring by the light of the sun on her family's apple orchard in Iowa. Gratefully, that Midwestern mentality has served her well over the years as Tracey continues to deliver excellent customer service, superior technical skill, and a wide array of industry knowledge on behalf of her clients. While Tracey wouldn't trade her career as a Real Estate broker for any other, her first love was Architecture. After receivingĀ her degree at Iowa State University, Tracey worked in the architecture world for over 6 years before deciding she wanted to forge a new professional path. In 2004, Tracey jumped heart-first into the world of helping her people buy and sell houses. She's never looked back. When you meet Tracey, one of the first things you notice is her positive energy, and zest for life. One of her favorite things about being a broker is the ability to help people make powerful transitions. Tracey's natural patience, unwavering professionalism, and optimistic attitude make her both a compassionate broker and tough negotiator. Tracey is committed to serving others, making a difference in her community, and giving back. When she isn't working hard to best serve her clients, you might find her tending to her garden, growing fresh vegetables and beautiful flowers, cross country skiing, or planning her next exciting adventure.   Tracey works as a team, alongside Kelsey Burkett, Broker Licensed in OR.
