In this episode of House Hunters International: Volume 6 season 17, episode 10, we follow the story of a Canadian couple, Norm and Nita, who are looking to buy a country home in Italy. The couple are both retired and are looking to spend their golden years in a picturesque Italian countryside, filled with scenic landscapes and a slower pace of life.
As the episode begins, we see Norm and Nita, both of whom have a love for Italian culture and food, in search of their dream country home. They are looking for a property that has plenty of space both indoors and outdoors, as they plan on entertaining friends and family.
Their budget is $500,000, a decent sum for a country home, and they are hoping to find a place that is not too far from the main towns of the region but far enough to have their peace and quiet.
As they begin their search, they meet with their real estate agent, Laura, who takes them to several different homes around the Umbria region of Italy.
Their first stop is a two-story farmhouse that is over 100 years old. The home is surrounded by gorgeous rolling hills, vineyards, and olive groves. The house has plenty of charm and character, including exposed wooden beams and stone walls. Despite its age, the house has been renovated to include modern amenities such as air conditioning, heating, and a pool.
Their second stop is a recently renovated villa that has five bedrooms and three bathrooms. The home is surrounded by a large garden filled with olive trees. The interior of the house has a modern flair, with large windows that provide great natural light. The house also has a rustic feel with wooden accents that provide a cozy ambiance.
Their final stop is an upscale villa that fits all of their requirements. The home is situated on a hill with stunning views of the surrounding landscapes. The home has six bedrooms and is surrounded by gardens and a large swimming pool. The interior of the house is spacious, with high ceilings and large windows that provide a lot of natural light.
After seeing all three properties, Norm and Nita have a difficult time picking one. Each of the homes has its unique features, and the couple is torn over which one to choose.
After much deliberation, they decide on the rustic villa with modern accents that features a large garden in the Umbrian countryside. They are excited to call this place their forever home.
Overall, this episode of House Hunters International captures the beauty of the Italian countryside and the search for the ideal country home. The stunning views and charming properties will leave viewers longing for their own piece of Italy.
