House Hunters Renovation Season 8 Episode 10 Out Of Their Comfort Zone In Chicago

In this episode of House Hunters Renovation, a couple from Chicago is ready to take on a big project - renovating their current home. They've lived in their house for over a decade and have loved it, but it's time for a change. They're looking to add more space, create a more functional layout, and update the outdated features of their home.

The couple, who have two children, initially considered moving to a larger home. But after evaluating their options, they decided to stay put and invest in renovating their current home. They've set a budget of $250,000 for the renovation and are determined to create a space that better meets their family's needs.

The couple's wish list includes adding a third bedroom, creating a bigger and brighter kitchen, and transforming their unfinished basement into a functional living space. They also want to update their master bedroom and bathroom, which they describe as "dark and outdated."

To help them achieve their vision, the couple enlists the help of a local design and build firm. The firm's design team listens to the couple's wish list and comes up with a plan to transform their home. The couple is excited about the design plan but realizes that it will require some compromises.

One of the biggest challenges the couple faces is the tight lot their home sits on. The design plan calls for a two-story addition to the back of the house, which will add much-needed space for their growing family. However, the addition means sacrificing some of their outdoor space. The couple is nervous about losing their backyard, which they've enjoyed for years.

Another challenge is deciding on the right finishes for the renovated spaces. The couple has different taste in design styles, which makes agreeing on finishes difficult. The design team works with the couple to find a compromise that satisfies both of their design preferences.

As the renovation progresses, the couple faces unexpected challenges that test their patience and budget. They discover unforeseen structural issues that require additional work and budget. They also realize that their budget is stretched thin and they need to make difficult decisions about where to cut costs.

Despite the obstacles, the couple remains committed to their renovation project and is determined to create a space that they love. As the renovation nears completion, the couple is thrilled with the transformation of their home. The addition to the back of the house has created a larger and more open living space, and the redesigned kitchen is now the heart of the home. Their basement has been transformed into a functional family room, and their master bedroom and bathroom have been updated to reflect their style.

In the end, the couple is glad that they decided to renovate their home instead of moving. They've created a space that better meets their family's needs and reflects their personal style. The renovation has been a challenging but rewarding process that has pushed them out of their comfort zone and allowed them to create the perfect home.
