Warren and Jill are a couple who have spent the past 20 years in their home and now find themselves ready for a change. The couple has two grown sons, one of whom still lives at home. This family needs more space, but Warren and Jill don't want to leave the neighborhood they love.
Drew arrives to assess the home and assess why the family needs more space. Drew determines that the home’s outdated finishes and lack of storage space are just a few of the reasons Warren, Jill, and their son are feeling cramped. As usual, Drew takes all of their concerns to heart and comes up with a renovation plan that will help them achieve their dream home.
Drew sets out to create a more efficient floor plan, starting with the creation of a spacious, open concept living and dining area that will be perfect for accommodating the family's needs. He also aims to create a functional and stylish kitchen that will be perfect for entertaining, as well as adding more storage space throughout the home.
While Drew focuses on the renovation, Jonathan works tirelessly to find the family's dream home in their beloved neighborhood. With a budget of $1.5 million, Jonathan has his work cut out for him to find a perfect fit for Warren, Jill, and their son.
Jonathan takes the family on a tour of three different properties. While they are all great in their own way, the family has a hard time finding one that checks all their boxes. One property is too small, another needs too much work, and the last one is out of their price range.
While the family is out with Jonathan looking at other homes, Drew and his team begin demolishing the old kitchen and living area to make way for the new open concept space. The transformation is astonishing, and the family is over the moon with the progress.
Once the renovations are complete, Jonathan brings the family back to see how things have transformed in the home they've always known. It's tough to recognize the place! The family is thrilled with the new, modern, and functional design and can't wait to make memories in the new space. They head to the backyard for a barbecue to celebrate.
Jonathan then takes the family to see a hidden gem in their neighborhood. While it might not have been on their radar initially, the home needs no work and has everything that Warren and Jill are looking for. It's spacious, well-laid-out, and situated in the neighborhood of their dreams. The family falls in love with the home and decides to put an offer on it.
In the end, Warren and Jill sell their old home for $1.25 million, making a profit of $400,000 from their initial investment. They also snag their dream home for just under $1.5 million, which is perfect for their growing family. With Drew and Jonathan's help, Warren and Jill have not only increased their profit, but they've also found their dream home in one of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the city. It was a success on all fronts.
