A Home Near Nature in Wales is the seventh episode of season 71 of House Hunters International. The episode follows a young couple, David and Julia, as they search for the perfect home in the picturesque countryside of Wales. The couple has been living in London for several years, but they have grown tired of the hustle and bustle of city life and want to find a place where they can escape into nature.
The couple's budget is around £450,000, which gives them a lot of options in the Welsh countryside. They are looking for a spacious home with plenty of outdoor living space, ideally situated near hiking trails and other outdoor activities. They plan to use the home as a vacation home at first, but eventually want to retire there.
The first home the couple visits is a charming farmhouse, situated on a large plot of land surrounded by rolling hills. The interior of the home is spacious and has plenty of character, with exposed wooden beams and a cozy living room with a fireplace. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a large garden and patio area for entertaining. However, the property needs a bit of "TLC," and the couple is unsure if they want to take on the restoration project.
The second property is a modern, newly-built home with stunning views of the countryside. The home has an open-plan living area with floor-to-ceiling windows, which floods the space with natural light. The outdoor space is equally impressive, with a large balcony and hot tub, perfect for relaxing after a long day of hiking or exploring. While the couple loves the modern aesthetic of the home, they feel that it lacks the character and charm of the first property.
The third and final property is a converted barn, which is situated near a quaint village in the Welsh countryside. The interior of the home is cozy and inviting, with wooden beams and a wood-burning stove that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. The outdoor space is equally charming, with a small garden and patio area that overlooks the surrounding fields. While the couple loves the rustic feel of the property, they are unsure if it has enough space for their needs.
Throughout the episode, the couple weighs the pros and cons of each property and discusses their priorities. While they initially focused on finding a property near hiking trails and outdoor activities, they quickly realized that they also wanted a property with a bit of character and charm.
In the end, the couple makes a decision that surprised even themselves and chooses a property that strikes a balance between modern amenities and rustic charm. As they begin their new life in Wales, they look forward to exploring everything the countryside has to offer and enjoying their newfound sense of peace and tranquility in the heart of nature.
