In the fifth episode of season 32 of House Hunters, a couple is looking to move from their current city to the more rural area of Oregon where they can find a place that offers a sense of community while still having enough space to live comfortably.
The couple is comprised of a husband who works as a marine biologist and his wife, who is a stay-at-home mom with two young children. They are currently living in Eugene, Oregon, a city known for its vibrant culture and artistic community, but they are eager to find a new home that offers a different kind of lifestyle.
Their budget is up to $900,000, and they are looking for a house with at least 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and enough land to raise animals and grow a garden. They also want the house to be located near good schools and outdoor activities such as hiking and fishing.
The first house they look at is a beautiful craftsman-style home located in the small town of Cottage Grove, about 20 miles outside of Eugene. The house has 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a large backyard with a vegetable garden and a chicken coop. The couple loves the small-town feel of the area and the fact that there are plenty of outdoor activities nearby. However, they feel that the house is a bit too close to the neighbors and that it doesn't quite have the amount of land that they were hoping for.
The second house they view is located in the rural town of Creswell, about 15 miles southeast of Eugene. It's a large farmhouse-style home with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and plenty of space for their children to play. The house is located on 5 acres of land, which is perfect for their desire to have animals and grow a garden. The couple loves the peace and quiet of the area, as well as the fact that it's still close enough to Eugene to visit frequently. However, they feel that the house needs some updating and that it's a bit too far away from schools and other amenities.
The third house they see is located in the small town of Veneta, about 15 miles west of Eugene. It's a modern-style home with 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a large backyard that backs up to a forested area. The house is located in a small subdivision and is close to schools and other amenities. The couple loves the modern design of the house, as well as the fact that it's close to everything they need. However, they feel that the backyard is too small and that they wouldn't be able to have the kind of outdoor space that they want.
After careful deliberation, the couple decides to put in an offer on the farmhouse-style home in Creswell. They love the amount of land that it offers, as well as the peace and quiet of the area. They also like the fact that it's still close enough to Eugene to visit frequently. With a little bit of updating, they feel that the house will be perfect for their family's needs.
Overall, this episode of House Hunters follows a couple as they search for a new home that offers both community and wide-open space in the beautiful state of Oregon. Through the three homes that they view, viewers are able to see the different kinds of homes and lifestyles that are available in the area, and how each one might suit different needs and desires.
