House Hunters Season 2013 Episode 142 Houston Couple Wants Updated Home With Vintage Charm
- October 22, 2013
In this episode of House Hunters, a couple from Houston searches for an updated home with vintage charm. The couple, Whitney and Chris, currently live in a small apartment and are ready to upgrade to a more spacious and stylish home. They have a budget of $350,000 and are looking for a house with at least three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
Whitney and Chris are both creative and love vintage style, so they're looking for a house with character and unique features like original hardwood floors, crown molding, and vintage fixtures. They also want a house with a large backyard for their two dogs to play in.
Their realtor, Jessica, shows them three houses that fit their criteria. The first house is a charming bungalow with a large front porch and original features like hardwood floors and a clawfoot tub. However, the house has only two bedrooms and one bathroom, which is a dealbreaker for Whitney and Chris.
The second house is a modern ranch-style home that has been updated with new appliances and fixtures. The house also has a large backyard with a pool, which is a big selling point for the couple. However, the house lacks the vintage charm that Whitney and Chris are looking for.
The third house is a two-story Colonial that has been completely renovated with modern updates while still maintaining its vintage charm. The house has four bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, which is perfect for Whitney and Chris's needs. The backyard is also large and perfect for their dogs.
After touring all three houses, Whitney and Chris have a tough decision to make. They loved the vintage charm of the bungalow but found it too small. The ranch-style house had a great backyard but lacked the vintage character they were looking for. The Colonial was their favorite, but it was slightly over their budget.
Ultimately, Whitney and Chris decided to make an offer on the Colonial house. They appreciated the vintage charm and modern updates, and they were willing to stretch their budget for their dream home.
Overall, this episode of House Hunters was a great showcase of a couple's journey to finding their perfect home with specific style criteria. It's always interesting to see how each home stacks up against each other and how people make their final decision. The episode was also a great reminder that sometimes you have to stretch your budget to get the home you truly want.
