House Hunters Season 2014 Episode 115 Ohio Couple Disagrees on Old Home vs. Brand New
- September 17, 2014
In this episode of House Hunters, we follow an Ohio couple who are having trouble deciding between an old home with character and a brand new, modern build. The couple, Sarah and John, have been living in a small apartment for several years and are ready to upgrade to a larger space for their growing family.
Sarah is a big fan of old homes and loves the idea of restoring a historic property with unique features and original charm. John, on the other hand, prefers the clean lines and modern amenities of a brand new build. Their conflicting preferences have made it difficult for them to agree on what they want in a home.
To help them make a decision, the couple enlists the help of a real estate agent who shows them a variety of properties that fit their budget and criteria. They start with an old Victorian home that Sarah is immediately drawn to. The home has a lot of character, including intricate woodwork and stained glass windows. John is less impressed, however, and points out that the home will require a lot of maintenance and repairs to keep it in good condition.
Next, the couple visits a newly built home in a suburban neighborhood that offers all the modern amenities they could want. The open-concept layout and updated features appeal to John, but Sarah finds the home lacking in character and charm. She also notes that the yard is small and doesn't offer enough space for their children to play.
As they continue exploring their options, Sarah and John realize that compromising is the key to finding their dream home. They find a mid-century modern home that has been updated with modern conveniences. The home's unique style and large yard win over Sarah, while John appreciates the updated features and low maintenance of a newer build.
In the end, the couple is able to strike a compromise and find a home that they both love. The home offers a mix of character and modern amenities, with plenty of space for their family to grow. With the help of their real estate agent, Sarah and John are able to navigate their differing preferences and find the perfect home for their needs.
