House Hunters Season 2012 Episode 138 A Young Couple Moves Close to Family in Pittsburgh

A young couple from out of state is moving to Pittsburgh to be closer to their family. With their budget of $250,000, they are looking for a spacious home with a backyard for their dog and plenty of room to grow their family.

The first house they visit is a charming Victorian-style home in the historic neighborhood of Lawrenceville. The house has plenty of character with its original woodwork and stained glass windows, but it also comes with the challenge of needing some updates and repairs. The couple loves the idea of restoring the home to its former glory, but they are hesitant about the level of work required.

Next, they view a newer construction in the burgeoning neighborhood of East Liberty. The house has an open plan and modern amenities, but it lacks the charm and character of the older homes they previously viewed. However, the location is ideal, with many trendy restaurants and shops nearby.

Their third option is a spacious home in the family-friendly neighborhood of Squirrel Hill. The house is move-in ready with updated appliances and a large backyard, but it is slightly above their budget. They appreciate the proximity to the city's best schools and numerous parks and recreational activities.

Ultimately, the couple must weigh the pros and cons of each home and decide which one fits their lifestyle and budget best. Will they choose the historic charm of Lawrenceville, the modern amenities of East Liberty, or the family-friendly atmosphere of Squirrel Hill? Tune in to find out!
