House Hunters Season 2017 Episode 196 Author Seeks Vintage Charm in Oregon

Author Seeks Vintage Charm in Oregon is the season 2017, episode 196 of the popular TV show, House Hunters. In this episode, we follow a young author named Amelia as she searches for her dream home in the charming state of Oregon. As an author, Amelia has always been drawn to vintage homes with character, and she hopes to find one in Oregon that she can turn into the perfect writing retreat.

The episode starts with Amelia meeting her real estate agent, Sarah, for the first time. Sarah has prepared a list of potential properties that fit Amelia's criteria, and they set off to view the first home on the list. The first house is a traditional 1950s bungalow with plenty of vintage charm. As they walk through the property, Amelia takes in the original woodwork, built-in cabinetry, and unique architectural details that make the house feel cozy and charming. However, the house is a bit smaller than Amelia had hoped, and she's not sure if it will provide the space she needs for her writing.

The second house they visit is a more modern home that has been updated with some vintage features. While Amelia appreciates the attention to detail, the house feels a bit too modern for her tastes. She's also concerned about the house's sterile feel, and she's not sure if she can turn it into the cozy writing haven she envisions.

Next on the list is a charming 1920s craftsman that immediately catches Amelia's eye. The living room features a stunning wood-burning fireplace, and the dining room has beautiful built-in cabinetry. Amelia can envision herself curling up by the fire with her laptop, typing away on her latest novel. However, the kitchen is quite small, and Amelia is worried that she won't be able to cook and entertain guests in the space comfortably.

As they view the fourth house on the list, Amelia falls in love with the property's vintage details. The house has original hardwood floors, intricate moldings, and a clawfoot bathtub. However, Amelia is disappointed to find that the house is in need of significant renovations. The plumbing and electrical systems will need updating, and Amelia worries that it will be too costly to make the necessary changes and still maintain the house's vintage charm.

The final house on the list is a unique mid-century modern home with plenty of vintage features. The house has an open floor plan, large windows to let in natural light, and a deck area perfect for outdoor writing sessions. Amelia is pleased to find that the house is move-in ready, and she is impressed with the unique design features. However, the house is quite different from what she had envisioned, and she's not sure if it will feel like home.

After visiting all five properties, Amelia must make a tough decision and choose the one that feels like the perfect writing retreat. Will she choose the bungalow with plenty of vintage charm, the updated modern home, the charming craftsman, the fixer-upper with potential, or the mid-century modern with unique design features? Tune in to Author Seeks Vintage Charm in Oregon, and find out which property Amelia chooses.
