Love It or List It Vancouver Season 5 Episode 14 Kris & Pete

Kris and Pete, a couple with two kids, are in desperate need of a bigger home in the city. They have been living in their current house for 10 years, but it no longer accommodates their growing family. However, while Kris is ready to move, Pete is hesitant to leave the home that they have built so many memories in.

The Love It or List It Vancouver team, consisting of designer Jillian Harris and realtor Todd Talbot, come in to help the couple make a decision. Kris wants a spacious home that can accommodate their family and allow for entertaining, while Pete loves the sentimental value of their current home. The team must come up with solutions that can meet both of their needs.

Jillian's plan is to give the couple the space they need without leaving their current home. She plans to turn their unfinished basement into a spacious family room, complete with a bar, fireplace, and plenty of seating. She also plans to renovate the kitchen, which is currently cramped and outdated, to open up the space and create a more modern look. To add more space, Jillian suggests adding a deck to the backyard, perfect for outdoor entertaining.

Todd's plan is to find the couple a new, larger home that offers all the features they desire. He shows them a stunning 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with a large backyard and beautiful views. The home offers an open concept living area, an updated kitchen with modern appliances, and a spacious family room. It also has a guest suite perfect for Kris's parents when they come to visit.

Both plans leave the couple with a lot to think about. Kris and Pete must decide whether they want to stay in their current home with the upgrades or move to the new, larger home with all the features they need.

While they make their decision, Jillian and Todd get to work. Jillian begins to renovate the basement, turning it into a beautiful, functional family room. She uses a neutral color palette with pops of color to create a warm and inviting space. The fireplace and bar add a sense of coziness while the large windows allow ample natural light in. Jillian also renovates the kitchen, adding modern appliances and plenty of storage.

On the other end, Todd works with the couple to find the perfect new home. They visit several houses before showing them the perfect one that meets all their requirements. The new home offers the open concept living area Kris wanted, as well as a larger kitchen and bedrooms. The backyard is vast, offering plenty of space for their kids to play and a perfect deck to entertain.

As both plans come to fruition, Kris and Pete are shown the finished products. Todd's new house is perfect, exactly what they were looking for. It offers everything the current home lacks, including more space, modern features, and a backyard. The couple is excited about the possibility of moving in and creating new memories. However, Jillian's upgrades on the current home are equally impressive. The basement has been transformed into an amazing family room, and the kitchen has been completely updated. They now have all the space they require.

In the end, Kris and Pete must choose whether they want to love their new, larger home or keep the memories and sentimental value of their current home with all the upgrades. The Love It or List It Vancouver team has given them two fantastic options, and it's up to Kris and Pete to make the final decision.
