Ep 5. Change the House, Not the School

The popular home renovation series Property Brothers: Forever Home is back for its third season, and episode 5 is titled "Change the House, Not the School." This episode takes us to a lovely family of four, who have decided to stay put in their neighborhood instead of moving to a new home in a better school district. The reason behind this is their love for their community and their children's attachment to their school. They believe that changing the house is a better solution than changing the school.

The family has lived in their current home for many years, and the house no longer meets their needs. The space is cramped, and the layout is outdated. The kids' bedrooms are too small, and they need more room to play and study. The family's main goal is to create a functional and comfortable space where they can enjoy spending time together.

Enter the Property Brothers, Drew and Jonathan Scott, who have taken on the task of transforming this family's home into a beautiful and practical living space that the whole family will love. Drew starts by finding the family's dream home, while Jonathan begins planning and executing the renovation.

Drew shows the family three houses in their desired neighborhood that fit their budget and needs. They see a beautifully renovated house that is move-in ready, but they quickly realize that it's not in their desired location. The second house is in the perfect spot, but the layout is not suitable for their family. Finally, Drew shows them a house that needs a lot of work, but it's in their desired location and has the potential to be their dream home.

The family decides to go with the third option, and Jonathan gets to work on the renovation. He plans a complete overhaul of the house, including expanding the living space, adding storage and updating the kitchen. He also focuses on creating a comfortable and functional space for the kids, including a designated playroom, study area, and a new bedroom for the daughter.

Throughout the episode, we see how Jonathan's plan slowly comes to life, from tearing down walls to laying new tiles, from updating light fixtures to installing built-in storage. We also get a glimpse of the family's emotional journey, as they watch their home transform into their dream space.

As with all episodes of Property Brothers: Forever Home, there are plenty of laughs and tears, as well as a few surprises along the way. We also get a glimpse of the Scott brothers' unique style and creative vision, as they work to make this family's dream home a reality.

In the end, the family is thrilled with their new home, and they thank the Scott brothers for making their dreams come true. They now have a beautiful and practical space that they can call home, and they didn't have to leave their beloved community or change their children's school to get it!
