Ep 9. A Boring House Turns Into A Boho-chic Rental

In Fixer to Fabulous season 2 episode 9, titled "A Boring House Turns Into A Boho-chic Rental," hosts Dave and Jenny Marrs take on a home renovation project in the town of Bentonville, Arkansas. The couple worked to transform a drab and uninviting house into an eclectic and stylish rental property that blends bohemian decor with contemporary finishes.

The homeowners, a young couple who recently moved to Bentonville, tasked Dave and Jenny with creating a space that could serve as both a comfortable home and an income-producing rental property. Dave and Jenny were excited to take on the challenge and were delighted when the couple invited them to see the property for the first time.

The initial walkthrough revealed a house with a dull exterior and an outdated interior. Dave and Jenny knew they had their work cut out for them, but they also saw potential in the property's expansive backyard and the large windows throughout the house that allowed for plenty of natural light.

To start the renovation process, Dave and Jenny worked to create a more open and inviting floor plan, removing walls and creating a more cohesive living space. They also worked to modernize the kitchen, adding new appliances, sleek countertops, and a large center island.

One of the highlights of the renovation was the transformation of the master bedroom. Dave and Jenny took on an ambitious project, building a unique and stylish headboard that served as the centerpiece of the room. They also updated the bathroom, creating a spa-like retreat that included a large walk-in shower and separate soaking tub.

Throughout the renovation, Dave and Jenny worked to incorporate a bohemian aesthetic that would appeal to renters looking for a stylish and welcoming home. They added pops of color throughout the house, including bold wallpaper in the entryway and vibrant tile in the bathroom.

The backyard was also transformed into a beautiful outdoor living space, complete with a large deck, comfortable seating, and ample space for entertaining guests. Dave and Jenny also added a fire pit and a hot tub, making the backyard an ideal spot for relaxing and enjoying the beautiful Arkansas scenery.

As the renovation neared completion, Dave and Jenny added the finishing touches, including artwork, textiles, and unique touches that brought the boho-chic aesthetic to life. The result was a beautiful and welcoming rental property that blended modern finishes with eclectic decor, creating a space that would appeal to a wide range of renters.

In the end, the homeowners were thrilled with the renovation, and Dave and Jenny were proud of the work they had accomplished. The transformation of the house from a boring and outdated property to a stylish and welcoming rental was a testament to the couple's skill and expertise in home renovation.
