Ep 9. Family Homes of the Gold Coast

In this episode of House Hunters International season 16 episode 9, titled "Family Homes of the Gold Coast," viewers are taken to the scenic Gold Coast region of Australia, where they bear witness to the family house hunting experience of a couple with young children. The hosts take the viewers through an exploration of the Gold Coast, a city known for its beautiful beaches, lush rainforests, modern shopping malls, and towering skyscrapers, as they search for a family-friendly home with enough room for their children to play.

The couple, who are originally from France, are searching for a place that can provide them with a lot of natural light and an open floor plan. They want their new home to be spacious and have plenty of storage, as they have accrued many personal belongings over the years. The hosts of the show take note of these desires and begin their search.

The couple's first house viewing is located on the hills of the Gold Coast. The house boasts stunning views of the city, as well as a spacious modern design with an open layout. They love the idea of having a lot of windows to let in plenty of natural light but are worried about the distance from the beach. Nevertheless, the couple decides to place this house on their shortlist.

Their second house is located in a gated community, which provides a sense of exclusivity and security. It has a generously sized backyard, complete with a pool, and enough storage spaces. However, while the house does boast a spacious layout and plenty of natural light, the house has a dated look that may need some updates. The family moves on to their third property.

The third house is much closer to the beach and is located in a thriving beachside neighborhood. More importantly, it has a lot of storage spaces ideal for the family’s belongings, but the couple is concerned about the affordability of the home. As a result, they add it to their list, but keep their options open.

The show's hosts arrange for the couple to view several more properties. One house has an expansive backyard and a large sports area which is perfect for their kids who love outdoor activities. Another house has a minimalist design with sufficient natural light, but it doesn’t have a lot of storage space. The couple really liked both of these properties, so they added them to their shortlist as well.

In the end, after diligently weighing all their options, the family decided on which property to purchase. The final choice on this episode of House Hunters International season 16 episode 9, Family Homes of the Gold Coast, is sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats until the very end. The family finds a beautiful house that ticked all of their boxes - modern design, natural light, and ample storage - and it included a generously sized and well-manicured backyard.
