- July 19, 2013
A couple is on the hunt for their dream beach vacation home on Florida's Gulf Coast in season 2013, episode 94 of House Hunters. The episode kicks off with the couple, Emily and Ben, sharing their desire for a place where they can truly unwind and relax by the beach. They are joined by their real estate agent who shows them different properties along the coast, each with its own unique features and amenities.
First on the list is a house in Gulfport that has three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The couple is impressed by the spacious living area filled with natural light. The house also boasts of a pool, a garden, and a balcony where they can enjoy views of the surrounding ocean. The proximity of the beach and a park also works in its favor. However, they are not too thrilled with some of the rooms' size, particularly the master bedroom, which they feel is a bit cramped.
Next, they check out a house in Clearwater Beach that has two bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths. Unlike the previous property, this one has been fully renovated and features new appliances and modern finishes. The location and views of the beach and the Clearwater harbor are some of its biggest selling points. The couple is in love with the open plan, the light colors, and a modern kitchen that is fully equipped. However, they feel that the second bedroom might be too small for their needs as they prefer a home that can comfortably host friends and family.
The third property is in St. Pete Beach and boasts three bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths. The house sits not far from the beach, features an elevator, and is located on a street with access to the intercoastal waterways. The couple is impressed by the bar area and the rooftop terrace that offers breathtaking views of the beach. The versatile outdoor spaces, including balconies, patios, and decks, are also a highlight. This property also has a bonus room that the couple can use as their office, which could be a game-changer for them. However, there are a few minor issues such as the fact that the home is on the market for a while and that it needs some repairs.
The fourth property is in Treasure Island and has two bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths. It's a townhouse with a shared pool and a private dock. The couple is excited about the possibility of forgoing the hassle of parking and having their boat just outside their doorstep. The home also features an open floor plan, a renovated kitchen, and ample storage space, including a garage where they can safely store their water sports equipment. The proximity to restaurants and nightclubs in the area is also a major plus. Despite the home's unique features, Emily and Ben feel that the living room is too small, and the ceilings aren't high enough.
The couple eventually makes a decision and chooses the property that ticks all their boxes and more. The episode ends with them packing up their things and getting ready to move into their new beach vacation home on Florida's Gulf Coast.
