This Steinway Model M, Walnut baby grand piano is gorgeous and rare. Walnut is not readily available and the warmth of color fits any home, modern or contemporary with its elegant Satin finish.

This piano has been well looked after, purchased by my parents in 1989. All three children learned how to play the piano on this instrument. It has been largely unplayed the past 20 years since we grew up and the instrument was covered and protected in the mean time.

Now my parents are elderly and downsizing. The piano has been tuned and appraised by Steinway representatives from Baltimore in the past month. The Steinway salespeople said it had an amazing tone, was basically in perfect condition, and plays beautifully. No repair or reconditioning needed. Additionally, they said the Walnut edition is rare and does not come up for resale very often, making its price go up. Steinway sells used pianos in their stores on consignment. The original price for this Model M was $43,000. Steinway said they would price it at $22,000 and give the owners $10,000 when it sells.

My parents would like to try to sell it now directly to someone who will appreciate it as much as we did.

The piano is located in Finksburg MD, about an hour from Washington DC in a ranch house with no stairs and easy access to the piano. Buyers are responsible for piano movers cost and coordination.
