In Property Brothers: Forever Home season 1 episode 11 "Raise The Kids, Ignore The House," hosts Jonathan and Drew Scott are tackling a renovation for a family of four who have been so focused on raising their children that their home has fallen into disrepair. With two young boys, the family is in desperate need of more space and functionality, but their budget is tight.
Jonathan and Drew start by assessing the family's needs and wants, which include a dedicated playroom for the boys, a more open floor plan for entertaining, and a larger kitchen with upgraded appliances. The brothers come up with a plan to expand the home's footprint, creating a more open living and dining area while also adding a much-needed extra bedroom.
However, even with careful planning, the renovation quickly hits some roadblocks. The building permits take longer than expected, and the foundation work reveals some unexpected structural issues that need to be addressed. Throughout it all, Jonathan and Drew keep the family informed and involved in the decision-making process, making sure their needs and budget are always front and center.
As the renovation progresses, the family starts to see their dream home taking shape. Jonathan and Drew install upgraded appliances and finishes throughout the home, from the custom cabinets and countertops in the kitchen to the stylish tile and lighting in the bathrooms.
But the true star of the renovation is the playroom for the boys. Jonathan creates a custom-built playhouse complete with a slide and climbing wall, while Drew installs a built-in desk and plenty of storage for their toys and books. The boys are thrilled with their new space, and the family is finally able to relax and enjoy their home to the fullest.
Despite some unexpected challenges, Jonathan and Drew manage to create a beautiful and functional forever home for this family of four. With upgraded living spaces and plenty of room for the kids to play, this home is truly a space for the family to love and enjoy for years to come.
