Ep 4. Leaving the Nest

In the fourth episode of Home Town season 3, titled "Leaving the Nest," hosts Erin and Ben Napier help a couple who are empty nesters and looking to downsize. The couple, Rhonda and Lonnie, have already purchased a house in a nearby town, but it needs a lot of work before they can move in.

Erin and Ben start by renovating the exterior of the home, which is in need of a fresh coat of paint and some new landscaping. They also install new windows and a custom front door to give the house more curb appeal.

Inside, the couple wants to create an open-concept living space that is both functional and cozy. Erin and Ben knock down several walls to create a more open feel, and then install new hardwood flooring throughout the main living area.

They also create a custom built-in entertainment center, complete with shelves for displaying family photos and collectibles. The couple's existing furniture fits perfectly in the new space, but Erin and Ben add a few new pieces to tie everything together.

The kitchen is also in need of a major overhaul. Erin and Ben completely gut the space and create a more modern and functional layout. They install new cabinets and countertops, as well as a new range and oven. The space is finished off with a custom backsplash and new light fixtures.

The couple's new master suite is located on the main level of the home and features a large walk-in closet and a bathroom with a double vanity and a spacious shower. Erin and Ben make sure to add plenty of storage space throughout the room, including a custom built-in dresser.

The upstairs of the home is completely transformed into a guest suite, complete with a bedroom, bathroom, and sitting area. Erin and Ben add plenty of storage space to this area as well, including a custom built-in bookshelf.

Throughout the renovation process, Erin and Ben work closely with Rhonda and Lonnie to make sure that their design choices meet their needs and preferences. The end result is a beautiful and functional downsized home that the couple can enjoy for years to come.

Overall, "Leaving the Nest" is a heartwarming episode of Home Town that showcases Erin and Ben's expertise at turning outdated and neglected spaces into cozy and inviting homes. The couple's attention to detail and willingness to work closely with their clients make this episode a must-watch for fans of the series.
