House Hunters International Season 24 Episode 12 Surf Dreams in Hossegor

In this episode of House Hunters International, we join a couple from California who are looking to escape the busy city life and move to Hossegor, France. Hossegor is a popular surfing destination and the couple shares a passion for the sport, which is why they're keen on finding a home near the beach.

The episode starts off with the couple, Jenna and Alex, arriving in Hossegor and meeting their real estate agent, Stephanie. Stephanie is a local and knows every inch of the town, plus she's fluent in both English and French which makes communication a lot easier. The couple explains to her what they're looking for in a home and Stephanie takes them around to some potential properties.

The first property they see is a modern one-bedroom apartment with a balcony that overlooks the ocean. It's in a prime location and the couple loves the view, but they're not keen on downsizing from their current three-bedroom home. Stephanie understands their needs and takes them to a larger house that's a bit further away from the beach but within walking distance. The three-bedroom house has a spacious living area, a big garden, and a pool. The couple is impressed and is seriously considering it as an option.

Next, Stephanie takes the couple to see a traditional French villa with four bedrooms, located on the outskirts of Hossegor. The villa is older but well-maintained and has a lot of character. It's surrounded by a big garden and has a small pond in the backyard. Jenna and Alex immediately fall in love with the place, but they're worried about the upkeep and the distance from the beach. Stephanie assures them that there are good ways to take care of both of those concerns.

In the end, the couple has to decide between the modern beachfront apartment, the spacious house near the beach, and the traditional French villa. After weighing the pros and cons, they each have different opinions on which one to choose. Jenna loves the beachfront apartment for its view, while Alex prefers the spacious house with a pool. They both agree that the French villa is beautiful but might be too much work. Who will compromise and which property will they end up choosing?

Overall, this episode of House Hunters International offers an insightful look into the Hossegor lifestyle and property market. It's fascinating to see how different properties have their own unique features and the challenges that come along with each one.
