Retake those photos with better lighting so the colors look good. The kitchen cabinets look a dingy yellowish and the floor and walls are distinctly pinkish.

The bath may look good in person, but it looks like a toddler with a sander got loose.

Closeups of the cabinets so the viewer can see the construction and finish might help.

And in the listing text, emphasize "custom cabinetry with artisan finishes"

I personally would take it off the market now for a few weeks and repaint the cabinets. In the pictures they look like they're not well made. Otherwise the house and grounds are gorgeous and it's staged well. Then put it on again with new pictures. It will look fresh and new again and it won't show as having been on for six months. Then maybe you need to find a different agent?

I think a big part of the problem is when you put it on. Right as winter and the holidays were coming. That is prime season in FL and AZ but not in most of the rest of the country. So now it looks like it was on for too long.

So you listed the house Nov. 2014? Definitely not the best time. Kids will be out of school soon, which generates a whole new buying market. It's a beautiful house and grounds, but it could be there aren't as many potential buyers in that price range. Here in the Austin area, houses in the middle-upper $300's/low $400's are the quick sellers. Hang in there!

Agree about the bathroom cabinets. Love your pool, although many buyers don't want any pool. Better lighting might make a difference. Also, throw in a few colored plants in the front of the house to make it pop before you retake pictures. Good luck. Has your realtor been able to give you feedback from prospects?

I also think you need to retake the pictures and do more of them. The view larger photos is not really working. The first photo is nice and big and then many of the rest are smaller. I think you need to hire a professional photographer who will really take a decent amount of good pictures. Hire a decorator to stage your house. I am going to go picture by picture and give you feedback. I am giving you my reaction only. other people may feel completely different.

1. Pool view - Lovely picture - good start
2. Pool view 2 - Again lovely.
3. Back porch / Sunroom - Nice picture. The moldings look interesting but need a better view. Floors look nice but there is a nice crack right under the table. Some more pictures of the porch area would serve you well.
4. It's a tree - Find a better angle to take a picture of your house.
5. Two story family room - There is no staging/molding/anything above the 80" mark. I think your stager needs to throw some good sized art on the wall. If the fireplace is pretty then get a close up. If not, then make it pretty.
6. Kitchen - Get a better angle. You have a nice picture of a pendant light over nothing which draws the eye to the smallest door I have ever seen. You need some more color in the kitchen. I would normally suggest redoing the backsplash but yours looks lovely but in the picture it is a lot of varying shades of blond. If the light was over an island maybe get a dark island/ or table or something to really add some darker colors to the room.
7. Bar area - Really needs a better angle. When I first saw this I thought that was a vanity with a mirror behind it. Then I thought wine cooler in the bathroom...which I thought maybe they are on to something there. That sounds like a great idea then I realized it was not a bathroom.
8. Empty slightly curved wall - Empty space. Treat me like I am stupid please and define the space for me.
9. Bedroom - Nice but still very blond. Neutral is good but something in this picture just doesn't seem inviting.
10. Closet or pantry - Good picture.
11. Bathroom - Don't love the vanity at all. Don't like the mirror above the tub either. Where are the rest of the bathroom photos?
12. Dining room - Get an oriental rug. The moldings look kind of interesting wish I could see them. It still seems empty to me.
13. Bedroom (I think) - Hmm is that tile or vinyl? Define the space better.
14. Back of house - Nice picture of the outside. I can almost see a garage.
15. Picture of front - Better picture but still more trees and landscaping than house.
16. A cow - You have a finite number of pictures and we went with the cow.
17. Weaver Street Market - See cow
18. City street - See cow
19. Street sign - ???

I hope this helps. Please take the comments with the good will they were meant. I tried to be tongue in cheek rather than insulting, please keep that in mind when reading them.

Good luck.

Sorry, but the cabinets are amateur awful. Custom is a buzzword. It isn't an indication of quality. Inconsistent edge profiles, doors and drawer reveals, and odd molding choices and finishes are something that is really obvious to me as a professional and that would only be highlighted if painted in a single color. Leave those well enough alone. Just drop the price to compensate.

Yes the pool is a highlight, but using it as your profile shot makes it seem as though there is something wrong with the home's facade. Your actual facade shot is awful, with the tree blocking the view of the home. It needs to be from a different vantage point, or if that's not pssible, the tree needs to be limbed up in order to see the house. There also needs to be some color in that shot. Spend some money on some annuals to fill the fronts of the beds with. Acres of mulch with few plants is bland, and less than welcoming.

Look at the listings that are pending or sold. What I notice is that most are less taste specific in the kitchens and baths, and appear to be selling for less per square foot. In other words, price, apears to be the biggest obstacle.

Your listing also has a different group of photos on various sites. On Zillow, for example, there are no photos of that beautiful pool and none of the bathrooms. I cannot say I really like the cabinets, or the knobs and where they are located. Although not everyone falls in the DIY camp, I would prefer fix those items though, because "paint" usually means white. And I don't like white.

Your house is lovely. There is lots of good advice here. I would caution you from doing anything that's going to require more money going into the home since you're upside down already. Some cheap fixes and staging, for sure. Redoing cabinets, no. Your new buyer may (is likely) to not like the new color anyway. Everyone's tastes are so different. Most people can see the house for what it has to offer and not where it is today.

I don't know your local market. But I do know that if a house is appropriately priced, it will sell. If homes are selling on average in 10 days/30 days in your area and yours is not, it's the price. If you're getting a lot of viewings without any negative feedback and also no offers, it's the price. Right now many, many of us are not getting out what we've put into our homes. It's the new reality. Have your realtor give you a list of SOLD comps in, say, a 2 mile radius of your home (or some distance that reasonably represents like homes where you live). Divide the price by the square footage to get a $/sq. ft. and apply that price/sq. ft. to your home. That's where yours is going to sell at. If you've not done that yet, you need to - your realtor should have already done so. It really does boil down to that.

Make sure the first 5 pics are of high value...pool, kitchen, master, mstr closet, family rm. (They are what shows up on some of the feeder sites for the MLS.

I'd put a granite surround on fireplace. Cheap to do if you use granite tiles. Change out area rug in mstr for something with a contemporary feel, but not "busy". Like a taupe with a burg border. Need a big abstract slightly contemporary painting above bed in mstr. (Doesn't need to be expensive...Burlington coat factory has ones for under 100.00) current wall decoration is too small there. Also need large wall art above fireplace, and group your two bottles together on one side, and get a vase and put large "stick type" (grape vine/bamboo/prairie grass) type stuff in it on the other side. Should stick up about 2 feet above vase top. You need to draw the eye up, to take advantage of the high ceilings.

Get better pictures of bar area/kitchen/breakfast area, other baths, other bdms. back of house. Leave out the pics that advertise area (not house, like cow).

Change description to something that emphasizes the pool/entertaining aspect, and creates more of a mental picture.

Like "Stunning executive home, with amazing outdoor entertaining space. Newly installed Custom designed Lagoon style pool is built for family fun, while providing a peaceful, resort like feel. This large family home features over 4000 sf of living space, with 4 bedms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths . The kitchen is a chef's delight, with new custom cabinetry, SS appliances and plenty of granite covered counter space. The large great room with it's two story tall ceilings, gas FP and clerestory windows is perfect for hosting large gatherings or just relaxing with the family. Enjoy morning coffee in your 3 season sunroom, while looking out over the landscaped grounds and listening to the birds."

Your house is really beautiful! I haven't read the other comments on here yet, because I wanted to be objective after looking at your listing. I think two things that jumped out at me were the fireplace and the bathroom cabinet. I felt like the fireplace looked a bit "skimpy" for the nice large room it's in. Maybe it could be dressed up a bit? Or have a larger mantle or something? The bathroom cabinet finish I really didn't like. I would definitely paint that. The kitchen cabinet's finish, while not my taste, looked nice I thought. I don't think I would paint them. It's a really pretty house. I don't know why it's not selling, usually it's just a function of price/competition. Have you looked at your competition to see what the differences are? Six months is a long time to be on the market. Here's wishing you luck that you get it sold soon.

The photos of the house and exterior should help a buyer envision a house enough to get them in the door. With your photos there is no story being told that helps me envision the house or the floor plan. I'd start with photo 15 and move through the house. Part of the problem is that many of the photos fail to show an entire room. They are all sort of close-ups of cabinets, etc. I keep wondering where in the heck is that bar area. It's kind of random.

6 months may or may not be a long time on the market. We don't know your market and where that price falls in the market.

Your house looks lovely, clean, staged well, and light/bright. Sure, I don't care for the cabinets, but it's mostly the gargantuan reveals/face frames between the doors and drawer fronts. I don't think it's the finer details of decorating that are keeping people away.

Your price is on the high end for your area, no? What's the current absorption rate? This is # houses on the market in your price range / # houses in that same price range that sell per month. Do you have a glut or a shortage? That will help tell you the expected DOM and whether you're a victim of oversupply or not. If there's not an oversupply, then it's price.

On the photos, I would change them up. Start with a photo of the front: you need an initial "here's what the house is about" shot. And it should be better than the one you've got, as others have suggested. Then you should have more photos, and organize them in a good sequence: living area photos, then bedroom/bath area photos, then outside photos. You've only shown one bedroom and one bathroom in a 4000 sf house! More photos, more photos, more photos.

Thanks to all for the excellent comments. Much to consider here. I am meeting with a new realtor next week and this great feedback will help inform my discussion with her.

I think the house is very nice. I agree the large reveals on the cabinets arne't most people's taste these days. It actually makes them look older as that was more in style in the 80's I think. If you were staying, or wanting to invest more $ you could get bigger doors so the revelas wouldn't appear as large. It wouldn't stop me from looking at the house though.

Sorry to say, the bathroom cabinets almost look old and damaged, but rather than paint them would it be possible to gel stain them and keep the wood tone? Or maybe just get the doors/drawers sanded and restained in a more uniform color? I think it was meant to be a rustic look, like this baby furniture my dil just bought , but it's too blotchy, the doors especially. Maybe the cabinet maker can redo the finish on the doors to take out the big dark spots....
Good luck!

Make sure you negotiate professional photos. A house that price shouldn't have photos that I could take with my cell phone....

Those are the strangest looking cabinets I have ever seen. I would not consider this house unless cabinet removal was built into the price.

I agree - the cabinets are a turn off for me. Otherwise it's lovely though not my style.

Looks like I'm the oddball, the kitchen cabinets don't bother me at all, I like the more rustic look they have but I especially love the bathroom cabinets. To me, it adds a lot of character instead of the same old cookie cutter style. I do agree it's preference so you are going to have to wait for the right buyer.

Kitchen cabinets are a bit different - but then seeing them again in the bath makes them too much. The same hardware, even. Fixing up the bath would be lots simpler - maybe focus on that and then see if it's enough. (Maybe sanding and re-staining will work enough - definitely new pulls.) Then, the kitchen cabinets are fine as they are.

One comment on the living room --- the wall over the fireplace is HUGE and empty. Maybe folks need something there to better envision how it will work for them. Maybe a tapestry? This one (loomed) (nearly 90 inches tall) is less than $300, and the rod / tassels can be about $100. (I want one now!)

It does seem like the custom cabinets are the biggest issue. I know you've already lowered your price but if that's the deal breaker, then maybe you should replace the doors with something more normal? Or offer a cabinet door allowance to let buyers choose a style they want?

The pool could be an issue also. Not for me (love ours and yours is awesome), but not everyone loves pools. They do require maintenance. A HOA can also be a deal breaker. Some people don't like the control or the fees, but others do. These are just factors that can limit the buyer pool. You seem to be in a community, so schools must be good, right?

I think your home is amazing and I wish you luck selling it. Would I want those cabinets? Nope! Would I want that kitchen floor? Nope.

Any extra money you put into the pool, landscaping and sunroom has little to do with what you can get out of it. Or how much you paid for the house when you bought it.

What are similar houses selling for NOW? That's what you need to compare to.

I would agree that your pictures are really bad. They seem squeezed, somehow. Especially the ones that show the dining table and the bed. That looks like a doll bed, but it obviously it can't be. There's something wrong with the way the pictures have been posted.
