Ep 10. New Coast, New Kitchen

House Hunters Renovation season 1 episode 10 is called "New Coast, New Kitchen". In this episode, a family of four is moving to Santa Barbara from Connecticut. They are looking for a house with a coastal feel and a big backyard for their kids to play in. They have a budget of $1.5 million and want a house with at least four bedrooms.

The family has three different houses to choose from, but they don't love any of them. They decide to buy a house that needs a lot of work so that they can make it their own. They find a house that is over budget, but they love the location and the potential of the house. The house is close to the beach and has a large backyard. However, it needs a lot of work to meet the family's needs.

The family works with a contractor to help them remodel the house. They start with the kitchen since it is the heart of the home. They want a large island with lots of seating, a farmhouse sink, and a white and navy color scheme. They also want to add a new backsplash, new countertops, and new appliances.

The family also wants to add a playroom for their kids and a home office for the parents. They work with the contractor to convert part of the garage into an office and add a dedicated playroom upstairs.

Another major project is the backyard. The family wants to add a pool, a spa, and a built-in grill. The contractor also suggests adding a fire pit area and a pergola for shade.

Throughout the renovation, the family faces some challenges, such as discovering hidden electrical problems and having to adjust the design plans to meet their budget. Despite these challenges, they work with the contractor to create their dream home.

In the end, the family is thrilled with the results of the renovation. The kitchen now has a large island with plenty of seating, a beautiful backsplash, and new appliances. The playroom and home office are both functional and stylish. The backyard is now a wonderful space for entertaining, with a pool, spa, grill, fire pit, and pergola. The family loves their new coastal home and can't wait to enjoy it for years to come.
