Seeking Nature in Austria is the thirteenth episode of the fifty-ninth season of House Hunters International. The episode features a couple, Amy and Nick, who are passionate about nature and outdoor activities. They have decided to move to Austria from the United States in pursuit of finding a home that offers them the perfect blend of peaceful countryside living and exciting outdoor adventures.
The episode begins with Amy and Nick arriving in Austria, where they meet their real estate agent, Sabine. The couple tells Sabine that they want a home that is situated near hiking trails, has breathtaking mountain views and is within close proximity to the city. Their budget is around 500,000 euros, and they are open to considering both modern and rustic homes.
The first property that Sabine takes them to is a mid-century modern home, which is located at the foot of a mountain. The home has an open floor plan, large windows that allow plenty of natural light, and stunning views of the surrounding landscape. Amy and Nick immediately fall in love with the home's minimalist design and its proximity to hiking trails. However, the home's price tag of 600,000 euros is beyond their budget.
The couple then visits a traditional Austrian home, which is nestled in a forest and has breathtaking views of the mountains. The home's interior is decorated with rustic accents and features a cozy fireplace. Amy and Nick love the home's charm and atmosphere but are a bit concerned about the steep walking path leading up to the property. The home is priced at 450,000 euros, making it a strong contender.
Next, Sabine shows the couple a modern home with sleek lines and an open layout. The home is situated near a lake with plenty of opportunities for water activities. The interior of the home is bright and airy, with floor-to-ceiling windows that offer stunning panoramic views. However, the home's location, which is quite remote from the city, concerns Amy and Nick.
In the end, the couple has to choose between the traditional Austrian home and the modern home near the lake. After much deliberation, Amy and Nick make their decision based on what is most important to them: being close to nature. They choose the traditional Austrian home, which offers them a peaceful retreat nestled in the forest with easy access to hiking trails and stunning mountain views.
The episode concludes with Amy and Nick settling into their new home and exploring the surrounding area. They talk about how happy they are with their decision and comment on how they feel more connected to nature than ever before. The couple's move to Austria proves that with the right mindset and a devoted real estate agent, it's possible to find a dream home that fits both lifestyle and budget.
