Ep 12. Farmhouse Funk

In Love It or List It season 11 episode 12, titled Farmhouse Funk, homeowners Kyle and Jackie are in desperate need of a home renovation. Living in a historic farmhouse with their three children, the couple is struggling with a lack of functional space and outdated design features. While Jackie believes that their charming farmhouse is full of potential, Kyle is ready to pack up and find a new home altogether.

As they come to designer Hilary Farr and realtor David Visentin for help, each expert quickly takes a different approach to solving the family's problems. Hilary sees major renovation potential in the home's current layout and decides to make some big design changes to help the space better suit their needs. Meanwhile, David is certain that the couple will be better off starting fresh in a new home, and sets out to show them several properties through the area that better match their wishlist.

Throughout the episode, tensions rise as Kyle and Jackie struggle to agree on their next steps. While Jackie is fully on-board with Hilary's vision for the farmhouse, Kyle is skeptical of the amount of work (and money) it will take to bring the space up to par. Meanwhile, David struggles to find a home that fits within the couple's tight budget, which may mean compromising on their priorities.

Despite these challenges, both Hilary and David are determined to help Kyle and Jackie find a solution that works for their family. Over the course of the episode, the team tackles everything from a cramped kitchen and nonexistent closet space to dated wallpaper and musty smells. As they work together to revamp the farmhouse, the homeowners begin to see the potential in their current space and wonder if it's worth sticking around after all.

Ultimately, the season 11 finale of Love It or List It ends on a suspenseful note as Kyle and Jackie weigh their options and come to a final decision. Will they love their beautifully revamped farmhouse, or decide to list it and move on to greener pastures? Only time (and the final few minutes of the episode) will tell.
