1
00:00:01,233 --> 00:00:02,166
-So, would you ever
live in a bungalow?
-I would,
2
00:00:02,166 --> 00:00:03,667
'cause having
everything on one level
3
00:00:03,667 --> 00:00:04,700
-is very enticing.
-[Hilary] Yeah.
4
00:00:04,767 --> 00:00:06,467
The problem is sometimes
the bedrooms are just
5
00:00:06,467 --> 00:00:08,367
too close to the living area
and the kitchen.
6
00:00:08,367 --> 00:00:10,166
-Which is great for snacks
but not anything else.
-Oh, doesn't matter.
7
00:00:10,166 --> 00:00:11,567
-Doesn't matter,
doesn't matter.
-What? Of course it matters.
8
00:00:11,567 --> 00:00:14,767
No, it doesn't. You get
somebody like me
and I can completely
9
00:00:14,767 --> 00:00:16,767
reconfigure the way
that it's laid out
10
00:00:16,767 --> 00:00:18,100
and you wouldn't
have an issue at all.
11
00:00:18,166 --> 00:00:19,600
That's beyond your expertise.
12
00:00:19,667 --> 00:00:20,634
No, it is not.
13
00:00:20,634 --> 00:00:22,300
I've never seen you do
a bungalow because--
14
00:00:22,367 --> 00:00:23,900
Doesn't mean I can't do it.
15
00:00:23,967 --> 00:00:26,100
So, just call me when
you get a bungalow,
I'll fix it for you.
16
00:00:26,100 --> 00:00:27,266
[chuckles] I'm not
calling you.
17
00:00:27,266 --> 00:00:29,867
-Why not?
-'Cause you're too expensive.
18
00:00:29,867 --> 00:00:30,000
-This is true.
-Might call you
for a quote though.
19
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:31,567
-This is true.
-Might call you
for a quote though.
20
00:00:32,100 --> 00:00:33,467
Ha!
21
00:00:33,967 --> 00:00:36,166
[narrator] Michelle
and Quincy's
house is dated...
22
00:00:36,166 --> 00:00:38,000
Look at these great columns.
23
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:40,300
I think we're [chuckles]
visiting Rome.
24
00:00:40,367 --> 00:00:41,367
[narrator] ...dysfunctional...
25
00:00:41,367 --> 00:00:43,266
[Michelle] There is
no proper storage.
26
00:00:43,266 --> 00:00:45,166
[narrator] ...and conquered
by kids' stuff.
27
00:00:45,166 --> 00:00:46,767
[Michelle] Look at the toys.
28
00:00:46,767 --> 00:00:49,166
There's no space for us.
29
00:00:49,166 --> 00:00:51,967
[narrator] Hilary is juggling
conflicting priorities...
30
00:00:51,967 --> 00:00:53,400
Hilary, I really want
a banquette.
31
00:00:53,467 --> 00:00:55,000
-Wait, wait, wait, wait.
-And I need the window.
32
00:00:55,066 --> 00:00:57,367
I can keep the window
but you give up the pantry.
33
00:00:57,367 --> 00:00:59,867
[narrator] ...while David
wants to level up their life.
34
00:00:59,867 --> 00:01:00,000
[Michelle] This is
beyond flawless.
35
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,667
[Michelle] This is
beyond flawless.
36
00:01:01,667 --> 00:01:04,467
It is truly gorgeous. Wow.
37
00:01:04,467 --> 00:01:07,266
Well, I must say, like,
David, it's pretty impressive.
38
00:01:07,266 --> 00:01:09,200
[Michelle] This is a winner.
39
00:01:09,266 --> 00:01:10,867
Are you going to love it...
40
00:01:10,867 --> 00:01:12,667
Or are you going to list it?
41
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,367
[narrator] Quincy and Michelle
moved into this house
with their oldest son
42
00:01:24,367 --> 00:01:26,667
and had two more
sons in their time here.
43
00:01:26,667 --> 00:01:29,166
My favorite part of this
house actually,
44
00:01:29,166 --> 00:01:30,000
is the proximity
to the lake,
45
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,767
is the proximity
to the lake,
46
00:01:30,767 --> 00:01:33,100
and also the paved trails
that are along the way.
47
00:01:33,100 --> 00:01:35,467
We bought the house
17 years ago.
48
00:01:35,467 --> 00:01:38,567
And at the time, it was a much
quieter neighborhood.
49
00:01:38,567 --> 00:01:39,767
[Quincy] So, look
at the curb appeal.
50
00:01:39,767 --> 00:01:41,767
[Michelle] It's
a lovely large porch
51
00:01:41,767 --> 00:01:45,200
that you can spend
the entire time looking
at a new roundabout
52
00:01:45,266 --> 00:01:50,166
-with buses and trucks
right over there.
-[engines roaring]
53
00:01:50,166 --> 00:01:53,567
Now let's show you inside
the house and everything
that's wrong with it.
54
00:01:53,567 --> 00:01:56,166
-Aw, there's a lot to like.
-Hmm.
55
00:01:56,166 --> 00:02:00,000
How about we start
with the extremely
small foyer?
56
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:00,166
How about we start
with the extremely
small foyer?
57
00:02:00,166 --> 00:02:02,800
-Quaint. Quaint. One way
of looking at it, quaint.
-[chuckles]
58
00:02:02,867 --> 00:02:04,967
[Quincy] And we've got
the nice oak staircase here,
59
00:02:04,967 --> 00:02:07,166
the grain shows
quite beautifully.
60
00:02:07,166 --> 00:02:11,367
Let's take a look
at the would-be dining room.
61
00:02:11,367 --> 00:02:13,667
Look at these great columns.
62
00:02:13,667 --> 00:02:16,000
I think we're [chuckles]
visiting Rome.
63
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,000
Look at the fireplace.
It hasn't worked
for us in years.
64
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,767
And this nook for a TV.
65
00:02:22,767 --> 00:02:24,467
Barely functional.
66
00:02:24,467 --> 00:02:26,166
Look at the toys.
67
00:02:26,166 --> 00:02:29,767
[Quincy] Well, the good thing
is a space to play,
a space to romp around.
68
00:02:29,767 --> 00:02:30,000
There's no space for us.
69
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,266
There's no space for us.
70
00:02:32,266 --> 00:02:35,500
There isn't, uh,
an adult space anywhere.
71
00:02:35,567 --> 00:02:38,367
There's nowhere to retreat,
nowhere to relax.
72
00:02:38,367 --> 00:02:40,867
I don't think Hilary can give
me the kitchen of my dreams.
73
00:02:40,867 --> 00:02:42,867
There's not enough space
in this house to do so.
74
00:02:42,867 --> 00:02:45,066
[Quincy] It has nice
eat-in kitchen space.
75
00:02:45,066 --> 00:02:48,667
There is not a lot of prep
space in the kitchen.
76
00:02:48,667 --> 00:02:52,100
And there's no island,
there's no pantry.
77
00:02:52,166 --> 00:02:56,300
Look at the spices
on the counter because we
have nowhere to put them.
78
00:02:56,367 --> 00:02:58,467
We have a laundry room/mudroom
79
00:02:58,467 --> 00:03:00,000
but it is a mess.
80
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,767
but it is a mess.
81
00:03:01,767 --> 00:03:07,567
And again, not functional.
There is nowhere to put shoes.
82
00:03:07,567 --> 00:03:12,767
If it's raining or snowing,
we're getting, uh, wet boots
and shoes all over the place.
83
00:03:12,767 --> 00:03:15,367
This is the biggest
room in the house.
84
00:03:15,367 --> 00:03:18,967
But it's space we're not using
and we don't know how to use.
85
00:03:18,967 --> 00:03:23,700
Though the room is so big,
the closet in that primary
room is small.
86
00:03:24,567 --> 00:03:26,600
There is no proper storage.
87
00:03:28,100 --> 00:03:30,000
We have the pleasure
of showing you our
lovely, uh, bathroom.
88
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:32,300
We have the pleasure
of showing you our
lovely, uh, bathroom.
89
00:03:32,367 --> 00:03:37,367
Uh, a bathroom
with a very large tub
taking up a lot of space
90
00:03:37,367 --> 00:03:40,967
that we don't ever, ever use.
91
00:03:40,967 --> 00:03:42,166
Except for Cruise.
92
00:03:42,166 --> 00:03:45,100
[Michelle] That's a holder
spot for Cruise's toys.
93
00:03:45,166 --> 00:03:47,066
The shower is too small.
94
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:49,767
The tiles are too dated.
95
00:03:49,767 --> 00:03:51,667
There's only one sink.
96
00:03:51,667 --> 00:03:54,567
And we're constantly
tripping over each
other in the mornings.
97
00:03:54,567 --> 00:03:59,667
I have been thinking
about and wanting
to move for years.
98
00:03:59,667 --> 00:04:00,000
I have been collecting boxes
even in preparation
for moving for years.
99
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,166
I have been collecting boxes
even in preparation
for moving for years.
100
00:04:04,166 --> 00:04:05,300
[Quincy] I'd love
to stay here.
101
00:04:05,367 --> 00:04:06,867
This is where we need to be.
102
00:04:06,867 --> 00:04:08,767
And I think if we're able
to stay in our community,
103
00:04:08,767 --> 00:04:13,266
a fresh start, a new home,
a better layout will
work for everyone.
104
00:04:17,066 --> 00:04:19,567
This is an older
development, isn't it?
105
00:04:19,567 --> 00:04:21,467
Because look at the trees,
they're very mature.
106
00:04:21,467 --> 00:04:23,367
[David] Yeah. Oh, yeah.
This little roundabout.
107
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:26,467
-Don't you love roundabouts?
-I do.
108
00:04:26,467 --> 00:04:28,567
-I think roundabouts
are really good.
-They're so cool.
109
00:04:28,567 --> 00:04:29,667
English, you know.
110
00:04:29,667 --> 00:04:30,000
Yes.
111
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:30,967
Yes.
112
00:04:30,967 --> 00:04:32,967
-It's actually this
house right here.
-[Hilary] Mmm-hmm.
113
00:04:34,467 --> 00:04:39,100
[David] So, this is not
the way you go into the house.
114
00:04:39,166 --> 00:04:41,767
[Hilary] It's just not
very handy if it's
pouring with rain, is it?
115
00:04:41,767 --> 00:04:42,800
[David laughs] No, it's not.
116
00:04:44,100 --> 00:04:46,166
You would be soaked by now.
117
00:04:46,166 --> 00:04:47,233
If it were raining.
118
00:04:47,266 --> 00:04:48,400
But it's not raining so it
doesn't really matter.
119
00:04:48,467 --> 00:04:50,700
-No, I would have
them-- Anyway.
-Come on.
120
00:04:50,767 --> 00:04:51,867
[door squeaks]
121
00:04:54,266 --> 00:04:55,667
[Hilary] You kind of
see the whole thing.
122
00:04:55,700 --> 00:04:58,867
-You've got it in one moment
of walking into this house.
-You do.
123
00:04:58,867 --> 00:05:00,000
[Hilary] There is your
kitchen straight ahead of you.
124
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:00,767
[Hilary] There is your
kitchen straight ahead of you.
125
00:05:00,767 --> 00:05:03,000
Look at this room.
This is a bizarre room.
126
00:05:03,066 --> 00:05:04,667
-It's an office, I guess and--
-[Hilary] I guess.
127
00:05:04,667 --> 00:05:06,100
-[David] And drop zone.
-[Hilary] And it's
not connected
128
00:05:06,166 --> 00:05:07,400
so it's not meant
to be a dining room.
129
00:05:07,467 --> 00:05:08,967
Oh, dear.
130
00:05:08,967 --> 00:05:11,166
[David] It's not a bad
size, really. I mean...
131
00:05:11,166 --> 00:05:13,967
They've got the usual
issue of too many toys
all on the main floor.
132
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:17,467
-So...
-Can you see that far?
133
00:05:17,467 --> 00:05:18,867
How many fingers
am I holding up?
134
00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:19,867
Three.
135
00:05:20,166 --> 00:05:21,500
Ooh.
136
00:05:21,567 --> 00:05:22,700
I can see that far.
137
00:05:22,767 --> 00:05:26,000
But the natural light
right here is very nice.
138
00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:26,967
Who cares
about the natural light?
139
00:05:26,967 --> 00:05:28,200
You can barely see the TV.
140
00:05:28,266 --> 00:05:29,767
I care
about the natural light.
141
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,367
-Little dining area.
-[David] It's not terrible.
142
00:05:33,367 --> 00:05:35,500
See, this kitchen's
not a bad size.
143
00:05:35,567 --> 00:05:36,600
[Hilary] Oh, stop it.
144
00:05:36,667 --> 00:05:39,100
-[laughs] If I'm
being honest--
-Ooh!
145
00:05:39,100 --> 00:05:42,100
Ooh, ooh, there's
a finished basement.
This is gonna be my salvation.
146
00:05:43,900 --> 00:05:46,867
-This is--
-How-- How does
the basement fix this?
147
00:05:46,867 --> 00:05:49,100
It doesn't. It just means
there's an extra space.
148
00:05:49,100 --> 00:05:50,166
I wanna see what this is.
149
00:05:50,166 --> 00:05:52,100
And that's your salvation?
150
00:05:52,100 --> 00:05:54,266
Oh, mudroom.
And it's a laundry room.
151
00:05:54,667 --> 00:05:55,400
Ooh.
152
00:05:55,467 --> 00:05:57,000
[David] And it's storage?
153
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:00,000
Enter your salvation.
154
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,000
Enter your salvation.
155
00:06:02,066 --> 00:06:04,467
-So...
-That's it? That's the size
of your salvation?
156
00:06:04,467 --> 00:06:07,500
-A little small.
-Maybe there's something
good behind this door.
157
00:06:07,567 --> 00:06:10,000
Oh, well, look, yes.
Yes, this could be an office.
158
00:06:12,567 --> 00:06:13,533
Not bad.
159
00:06:14,700 --> 00:06:18,700
Hey, so, if the basement
was your salvation,
160
00:06:18,767 --> 00:06:20,066
what is the second floor?
161
00:06:20,066 --> 00:06:22,166
I didn't say it
was my salvation...
162
00:06:22,166 --> 00:06:23,867
-Yes.
-...I thought it would
be my salvation.
163
00:06:23,867 --> 00:06:25,400
It was a semi-salvation.
164
00:06:26,166 --> 00:06:27,100
[quietly] Gotcha.
165
00:06:28,066 --> 00:06:29,400
[Hilary] They've
just moved in.
166
00:06:29,467 --> 00:06:30,000
-I think so.
-Or they're in the process
of moving out.
167
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:32,000
-I think so.
-Or they're in the process
of moving out.
168
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:33,300
Good for me. All right.
169
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:36,266
Kids' bedrooms.
170
00:06:37,367 --> 00:06:38,767
[Hilary] Ta-da!
171
00:06:38,767 --> 00:06:41,000
-Oh.
-[David] I mean, look
at the size of this place.
172
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,667
Look at all the clothes
in those plastic bins.
173
00:06:43,667 --> 00:06:46,100
[David] Look around,
the bedroom itself
has enough space.
174
00:06:46,166 --> 00:06:47,400
And bathroom.
175
00:06:47,467 --> 00:06:51,400
It's got a walk-in shower.
It's got a big tub.
176
00:06:51,467 --> 00:06:54,467
[Hilary] If I could gut it,
it could be quite decent.
It's got space.
177
00:06:54,467 --> 00:06:55,367
[David] It does have space.
178
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,300
Walk-in closet.
179
00:06:59,367 --> 00:07:00,000
-[Hilary] Oh, whoa!
-[David whispers] Holy...
180
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:02,266
-[Hilary] Oh, whoa!
-[David whispers] Holy...
181
00:07:02,266 --> 00:07:04,367
How does anybody ever
find anything in here?
182
00:07:04,367 --> 00:07:05,767
[David in normal voice]
I have no idea.
183
00:07:06,367 --> 00:07:08,100
I have no idea.
184
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:09,433
I know what
they need. [chuckles]
185
00:07:09,467 --> 00:07:11,567
They need a house
that makes sense.
So, good luck with that.
186
00:07:12,667 --> 00:07:13,367
[smacks lips]
187
00:07:15,967 --> 00:07:16,800
Kind of agree.
188
00:07:21,367 --> 00:07:23,867
This house is
a ball of confusion,
189
00:07:23,867 --> 00:07:27,200
from the basement, all the way
up to the second floor.
190
00:07:27,266 --> 00:07:29,500
Where do I begin with what's
wrong with this house?
191
00:07:29,567 --> 00:07:30,000
Truly there isn't a single
space that is fabulous
or functional.
192
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:34,667
Truly there isn't a single
space that is fabulous
or functional.
193
00:07:34,667 --> 00:07:38,367
So, my job is to make their
life easy on a daily basis
194
00:07:38,367 --> 00:07:41,567
and I can probably
even do that close by
195
00:07:41,567 --> 00:07:44,300
by just going
to a newer development.
196
00:07:44,367 --> 00:07:48,066
And with any amount of money,
other than knocking it down
and building a new house,
197
00:07:48,066 --> 00:07:52,467
I don't have a single clue as
to how I can improve this
198
00:07:52,467 --> 00:07:57,600
to be even remotely
in competition with what
David could find them.
199
00:08:00,567 --> 00:08:01,767
[narrator] Hilary and David
meet with Michelle and Quincy
200
00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:05,100
to find out who wants to stay
and who wants to go.
201
00:08:05,166 --> 00:08:07,300
How did you guys
end up in this metropolis?
202
00:08:07,367 --> 00:08:08,667
And how long
have you been here?
203
00:08:08,667 --> 00:08:10,567
So, we've been in this
house for 17 years.
204
00:08:10,567 --> 00:08:11,800
How old are your children?
205
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,166
-There's a grown one
that's out of the house.
-Mmm-hmm.
206
00:08:14,166 --> 00:08:16,367
-And then one...
-And one is 16,
and one is six.
207
00:08:16,367 --> 00:08:18,000
-Wow. Okay.
-Okay.
208
00:08:18,066 --> 00:08:20,400
-So, your lifestyle's
changed completely.
-[Quincy] Mmm-hmm.
209
00:08:20,467 --> 00:08:22,867
This house will be wanting
to function in a different way
210
00:08:22,867 --> 00:08:24,600
-and that's what we're
gonna work on together.
-Yes.
211
00:08:24,667 --> 00:08:26,033
-[Quincy] Sure. Yes.
-Yeah.
212
00:08:26,033 --> 00:08:27,266
-Because your needs
and your wants...
-[Michelle] Absolutely.
213
00:08:27,266 --> 00:08:28,867
...are gonna be very
different now
from 17 years ago.
214
00:08:28,867 --> 00:08:29,312
-Yeah. That...
-Absolutely. We're looking
for some adult space.
215
00:08:29,312 --> 00:08:31,300
-Yeah. That...
-Absolutely. We're looking
for some adult space.
216
00:08:31,367 --> 00:08:32,834
-Yeah.
-[Michelle] Right?
217
00:08:32,834 --> 00:08:34,867
-That we don't--
That we don't have right now.
-[David] Very findable.
218
00:08:34,867 --> 00:08:36,300
[David] Very findable.
219
00:08:36,367 --> 00:08:38,066
I've done a valuation
on your home.
220
00:08:38,066 --> 00:08:41,100
And the current
value is $900,000.
221
00:08:41,100 --> 00:08:43,500
All right? So, what is
the must-have list
222
00:08:43,567 --> 00:08:45,000
-to get you out
of this house...
-[Michelle clears throat]
223
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,467
[David] ...and
into the new one.
224
00:08:46,467 --> 00:08:47,667
[Quincy] Four bedrooms.
225
00:08:47,667 --> 00:08:49,767
Four bathrooms and that's
including a powder room.
226
00:08:49,767 --> 00:08:51,567
A modern open
concept main floor.
227
00:08:51,567 --> 00:08:53,166
A large eat-in kitchen.
228
00:08:53,166 --> 00:08:54,300
Office space.
229
00:08:54,367 --> 00:08:55,367
Large backyard.
230
00:08:55,367 --> 00:08:56,667
A finished basement.
231
00:08:56,667 --> 00:08:58,367
Okay. Anything else?
232
00:08:58,367 --> 00:08:59,312
South of this area.
233
00:08:59,312 --> 00:09:00,100
South of this area.
234
00:09:00,100 --> 00:09:01,867
-You know, what would you
say your parameters are...
-[Michelle clears throat]
235
00:09:01,867 --> 00:09:04,200
...which-- in minutes,
let's just say.
236
00:09:04,266 --> 00:09:07,100
Ten minutes in either
direction I would say
would be the parameters.
237
00:09:07,166 --> 00:09:09,100
What is the budget
for the new house?
238
00:09:09,100 --> 00:09:11,400
The budget is $1.2 million.
239
00:09:11,467 --> 00:09:13,667
All right. Listen, I think
a new house makes sense.
240
00:09:13,667 --> 00:09:16,100
And I think it's gonna deliver
the kind of open concept
241
00:09:16,166 --> 00:09:17,767
-on the main floor
that you want...
-[Michelle] Mmm-hmm.
242
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:20,767
-[David] ...that's I think is
almost impossible to get here.
-[Michelle] Mmm.
243
00:09:20,767 --> 00:09:22,100
[David] Let's see what
we can come up with.
244
00:09:22,166 --> 00:09:25,300
Let's hear your must-have list
for me to convince you that
245
00:09:25,367 --> 00:09:27,867
this is the house that
you want to stay in.
246
00:09:27,867 --> 00:09:29,312
[Michelle] We start
with renovating the kitchen,
247
00:09:29,312 --> 00:09:29,800
[Michelle] We start
with renovating the kitchen,
248
00:09:29,867 --> 00:09:31,867
adding more storage
and an island.
249
00:09:31,867 --> 00:09:34,667
I'd love a sitting room
because I need an adult space.
250
00:09:34,667 --> 00:09:37,000
Renovate the laundry
and the mudroom.
251
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,767
Renovate
the principal bathroom.
252
00:09:38,767 --> 00:09:40,667
Create a better
walk-in closet.
253
00:09:40,667 --> 00:09:43,300
And add new flooring
throughout the entire house.
254
00:09:43,367 --> 00:09:44,767
So, what's my budget?
255
00:09:44,767 --> 00:09:47,166
Your budget is $150,000.
256
00:09:47,166 --> 00:09:49,166
Wow. Lot of money.
257
00:09:49,166 --> 00:09:55,500
But I think with $150,000
and a lot of imagination
and flexibility on your end,
258
00:09:55,567 --> 00:09:59,312
I do think that I can turn
this into a house that when
I'm done you're gonna love it.
259
00:09:59,312 --> 00:09:59,767
I do think that I can turn
this into a house that when
I'm done you're gonna love it.
260
00:09:59,767 --> 00:10:01,033
[Michelle] Hmm.
261
00:10:01,066 --> 00:10:04,000
And I think I would
ask for exactly what
you asked for.
262
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:05,667
Because I think all of that
needs to get done
263
00:10:05,667 --> 00:10:09,266
-and I think you will realize
a lot of value out of this.
-[Michelle] Mmm-hmm.
264
00:10:09,266 --> 00:10:10,567
[David] And when I find
that new house,
265
00:10:10,567 --> 00:10:12,000
the only thing you're
gonna say is list it.
266
00:10:14,567 --> 00:10:16,000
This is looking pretty
good for me.
267
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:18,867
I actually think it
is looking pretty good
for you which I resent.
268
00:10:18,867 --> 00:10:21,100
-[laughing]
-Because what am I supposed
to do about traffic?
269
00:10:21,100 --> 00:10:22,467
I can't do anything
about traffic.
270
00:10:22,467 --> 00:10:23,834
There's nothing you
can do about it.
271
00:10:23,834 --> 00:10:27,667
You know, you just have
to give them so much
inside that house
272
00:10:27,667 --> 00:10:29,312
that they just
overlook the traffic.
273
00:10:29,312 --> 00:10:29,467
that they just
overlook the traffic.
274
00:10:31,300 --> 00:10:33,100
That's what you do.
275
00:10:36,166 --> 00:10:39,400
[narrator] Hilary meets
with brothers Mike and Matt
to go over her design plan.
276
00:10:40,367 --> 00:10:42,266
It's a real challenge.
277
00:10:42,266 --> 00:10:44,266
But we have a half decent
budget this time,
278
00:10:44,266 --> 00:10:45,367
which is good.
279
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:49,000
The stairs. So, obviously,
they need updating.
280
00:10:49,066 --> 00:10:50,266
We're gonna put
in new spindles.
281
00:10:50,266 --> 00:10:51,800
[Matt] Mmm-hmm.
282
00:10:51,867 --> 00:10:53,567
Floors are gonna
be new throughout.
283
00:10:53,567 --> 00:10:54,400
[Matt] Okay.
284
00:10:54,467 --> 00:10:56,467
Starting with this room here.
285
00:10:56,467 --> 00:10:59,312
I don't know, obviously you
don't either at this stage,
whether these are structural.
286
00:10:59,312 --> 00:11:01,567
I don't know, obviously you
don't either at this stage,
whether these are structural.
287
00:11:01,567 --> 00:11:03,600
-Ideally, they'll
just be gone.
-[Matt] Yeah.
288
00:11:03,667 --> 00:11:06,367
Because this is going
to become the...
289
00:11:06,367 --> 00:11:12,767
living room for Michelle who
just wants a quiet place that
she can sit in and enjoy life.
290
00:11:12,767 --> 00:11:15,900
So, now we move on
into the really big challenge.
291
00:11:15,967 --> 00:11:17,400
The plan right now,
292
00:11:17,467 --> 00:11:20,700
new cabinetry throughout,
uppers and lowers.
293
00:11:20,767 --> 00:11:23,467
We're gonna wrap all the way
from the stove over here
294
00:11:23,467 --> 00:11:25,667
to the sink
and the fridge right here.
295
00:11:25,667 --> 00:11:28,200
And I want to continue where
this window will be removed
296
00:11:28,266 --> 00:11:29,312
for some sort of pantry
or storage,
297
00:11:29,312 --> 00:11:30,467
for some sort of pantry
or storage,
298
00:11:30,467 --> 00:11:32,900
but to keep some light,
we'll add a vertical transom
299
00:11:32,967 --> 00:11:35,400
and a new sliding
door will go here.
300
00:11:35,467 --> 00:11:39,166
Some sort of an island will
add loads of counter space
301
00:11:39,166 --> 00:11:40,867
and also additional storage.
302
00:11:40,867 --> 00:11:43,000
All right. Now, mudroom.
303
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:47,767
I'm gonna do stackables,
pick up some counter space,
storage, that's it.
304
00:11:47,767 --> 00:11:48,900
-[Matt] Okay.
-[Hilary] Okay?
305
00:11:50,166 --> 00:11:51,266
That's the main floor.
306
00:11:51,266 --> 00:11:52,867
So, most of the money is going
into the main floor.
307
00:11:52,867 --> 00:11:54,266
-And speaking of money...
-Mmm-hmm?
308
00:11:54,266 --> 00:11:56,667
...we're working
with $150,000.
309
00:11:56,667 --> 00:11:57,867
[Mike] Perfect. We're good.
310
00:11:57,867 --> 00:11:59,312
[Hilary] We are
going upstairs.
311
00:11:59,312 --> 00:11:59,467
[Hilary] We are
going upstairs.
312
00:11:59,467 --> 00:12:03,000
-Ta-da! So, this is...
-[Mike] Huge.
313
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:04,500
Huge.
314
00:12:04,567 --> 00:12:09,367
There's going to be a much
better closet system in here.
315
00:12:09,367 --> 00:12:11,867
Now the bathroom is
a whole other discussion.
316
00:12:11,867 --> 00:12:13,567
[Mike] Now the bathroom.
Oh, boy.
317
00:12:15,367 --> 00:12:16,300
So, here's the plan.
318
00:12:16,300 --> 00:12:18,367
I want a double
vanity along here.
319
00:12:18,367 --> 00:12:20,567
Move the toilet over
there to this wall.
320
00:12:20,567 --> 00:12:23,300
I don't know what
the issues are with that,
you'll let me know.
321
00:12:23,367 --> 00:12:26,100
And a great big shower
with a bench over here.
322
00:12:26,100 --> 00:12:27,900
And obviously we're
going to improve the lighting.
323
00:12:27,967 --> 00:12:28,600
Yep.
324
00:12:30,667 --> 00:12:32,667
We've got $150,000.
325
00:12:32,667 --> 00:12:36,800
We're ready to go once
I get the news from you
326
00:12:36,867 --> 00:12:39,100
-on moving the toilet.
-[Matt] Yep.
327
00:12:39,166 --> 00:12:40,200
All right. Thank you.
328
00:12:46,667 --> 00:12:48,700
So, house number one
for Quincy and Michelle.
329
00:12:48,767 --> 00:12:52,200
It's not a corner lot
but it's a quieter street.
330
00:12:52,266 --> 00:12:55,367
And the lake
is basically over there.
331
00:12:55,367 --> 00:12:58,667
The house itself,
five bedrooms,
four bathrooms,
332
00:12:58,667 --> 00:13:00,467
semi-open concept main floor,
333
00:13:00,467 --> 00:13:01,500
finished basement,
334
00:13:01,567 --> 00:13:02,967
got an office space for her,
335
00:13:02,967 --> 00:13:05,667
it's got a den and a special
feature in the backyard.
336
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,200
See what happens.
337
00:13:09,567 --> 00:13:10,400
Good morning!
338
00:13:10,467 --> 00:13:12,266
[both] Good morning, David.
339
00:13:12,266 --> 00:13:12,461
-Good to see you.
Good to see you as well.
-Good to see you as well.
340
00:13:12,461 --> 00:13:14,266
-Good to see you.
Good to see you as well.
-Good to see you as well.
341
00:13:14,266 --> 00:13:18,767
How would you compare
this location over where
you currently are?
342
00:13:18,767 --> 00:13:20,066
I like the closeness
to the lake.
343
00:13:20,066 --> 00:13:21,033
I like the closeness
to the lake.
344
00:13:21,066 --> 00:13:23,567
Even closer
than where we currently live.
345
00:13:23,567 --> 00:13:25,066
-[David] Mmm-hmm.
-That is phenomenal.
346
00:13:25,066 --> 00:13:27,300
And then you have the house.
347
00:13:27,367 --> 00:13:29,000
-[Michelle] It looks good.
-[Quincy] Mmm-hmm.
348
00:13:29,066 --> 00:13:30,900
-Let's go have a look,
see what you think.
-All right.
349
00:13:35,867 --> 00:13:36,600
[David] Come on in.
350
00:13:36,667 --> 00:13:37,967
[Michelle] Not a bad start.
351
00:13:37,967 --> 00:13:39,567
[Quincy] It looks
pretty good so far.
352
00:13:39,567 --> 00:13:40,567
[Michelle] Hmm.
353
00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,461
-You know, if I had a sign...
-[Michelle] Hmm.
354
00:13:42,461 --> 00:13:42,867
-You know, if I had a sign...
-[Michelle] Hmm.
355
00:13:42,867 --> 00:13:46,100
...that I could put
on the wall that said,
"Michelle's domain"...
356
00:13:46,100 --> 00:13:48,066
-[Michelle] Ah!
-That's what I would put.
357
00:13:48,066 --> 00:13:49,100
[Michelle] I really
do like it.
358
00:13:49,100 --> 00:13:51,867
This is what I was thinking.
359
00:13:51,867 --> 00:13:53,467
-[David] Yeah.
-[Michelle] The high ceilings
are great.
360
00:13:53,467 --> 00:13:54,700
This is a good start.
361
00:13:54,767 --> 00:13:56,266
-Let's keep going.
-Okay.
362
00:13:57,300 --> 00:13:59,266
[David] You've got
a living room space here.
363
00:13:59,266 --> 00:14:01,667
This would be
the main living area.
364
00:14:01,667 --> 00:14:04,100
It's just the, uh...
The lower
ceiling height, um...
365
00:14:04,166 --> 00:14:06,600
Used to something a bit higher
in terms of our house.
366
00:14:06,667 --> 00:14:08,800
I've got a little treat
over here.
367
00:14:08,867 --> 00:14:10,000
[Michelle] Okay.
368
00:14:10,967 --> 00:14:12,461
[David] A nice little
private office
369
00:14:12,461 --> 00:14:13,100
[David] A nice little
private office
370
00:14:13,166 --> 00:14:15,000
-on the main floor.
-[Michelle] Oh!
371
00:14:15,066 --> 00:14:16,600
-Let's go have a close look
at the kitchen.
-Awesome.
372
00:14:18,367 --> 00:14:20,800
I mean, that looks
more like the kitchen table
than the dining room.
373
00:14:20,867 --> 00:14:22,400
I'm a bit confused
with the kitchen.
374
00:14:22,467 --> 00:14:23,367
[Quincy] Mmm-hmm.
True difference.
375
00:14:23,367 --> 00:14:25,400
-I'm underwhelmed.
-[David] Okay.
376
00:14:25,467 --> 00:14:27,667
[Michelle] Hmm.
Why, thank you.
377
00:14:27,667 --> 00:14:29,667
[David] Wouldn't you
enjoy this in the summertime?
378
00:14:29,667 --> 00:14:32,266
[Michelle] It is
a beautiful backyard,
but it's not for us.
379
00:14:32,266 --> 00:14:33,667
-We do not want a pool.
-[Quincy chuckles]
380
00:14:33,667 --> 00:14:34,667
-No pools?
-Nope.
381
00:14:34,667 --> 00:14:36,266
-Not pool people?
-No, no.
382
00:14:36,266 --> 00:14:37,467
[David] Duly noted.
383
00:14:39,467 --> 00:14:41,367
[Quincy] What do we have now?
384
00:14:41,367 --> 00:14:42,461
-[David] Main floor laundry.
-[Michelle chuckles]
This is a drawback.
385
00:14:42,461 --> 00:14:43,867
-[David] Main floor laundry.
-[Michelle chuckles]
This is a drawback.
386
00:14:43,867 --> 00:14:45,367
[David] So, it needs
to be bigger or...
387
00:14:45,367 --> 00:14:46,367
-[Michelle] Main floor...
-[David] Yeah?
388
00:14:46,367 --> 00:14:47,767
-...has to be bigger.
-[David] Okay.
389
00:14:47,767 --> 00:14:51,667
Has to be more useful,
has to be a mudroom
slash laundry room.
390
00:14:51,667 --> 00:14:52,400
[David] Okay.
391
00:14:52,467 --> 00:14:53,767
-Basement.
-Okay.
392
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:58,767
[David] So, this is going
to be kids and Quincy.
393
00:14:58,767 --> 00:15:00,300
[Quincy] And great carpet.
394
00:15:00,367 --> 00:15:03,967
We, uh, not really
into the carpet situation
in the basement.
395
00:15:03,967 --> 00:15:05,600
-So...
-[Michelle] No, not really.
396
00:15:05,667 --> 00:15:07,500
Kind of feels
like you're in a basement.
397
00:15:07,567 --> 00:15:08,767
-Right.
-[Quincy] Yeah.
398
00:15:08,767 --> 00:15:10,367
You don't really want to feel
like you're in a basement.
399
00:15:10,367 --> 00:15:12,461
[David] So, head upstairs.
400
00:15:12,461 --> 00:15:13,166
[David] So, head upstairs.
401
00:15:13,166 --> 00:15:16,467
So, that would be the bathroom
for the kids.
402
00:15:16,467 --> 00:15:19,166
[Quincy] Yeah.
Kind of narrow, yeah.
403
00:15:19,166 --> 00:15:21,200
-[David] Bedroom number one.
-[Quincy] Serves its purpose.
404
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,667
[David] Bedroom number two.
405
00:15:24,667 --> 00:15:28,000
-[Quincy] Another cozy room.
-[Michelle] Come on, jeez.
406
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:29,300
They're all so small.
407
00:15:29,367 --> 00:15:32,000
Like they tried
to force the home
to have five bedrooms.
408
00:15:32,066 --> 00:15:32,900
Five bedrooms, right.
409
00:15:32,967 --> 00:15:34,667
[David] Let's keep going.
410
00:15:34,667 --> 00:15:37,166
-[David] Bedroom number four.
-[Michelle] Okay,
little better.
411
00:15:37,166 --> 00:15:40,100
This room, I think,
could be the minimum size...
412
00:15:40,100 --> 00:15:41,567
-[David] Okay.
-...that we'd be looking for.
413
00:15:41,567 --> 00:15:42,461
-Last bedroom. Let's go.
-[Michelle chuckles]
414
00:15:42,461 --> 00:15:44,100
-Last bedroom. Let's go.
-[Michelle chuckles]
415
00:15:44,900 --> 00:15:46,467
[David] And the main bedroom.
416
00:15:46,467 --> 00:15:48,266
[Michelle] Hmm.
I think it's pretty good.
417
00:15:48,266 --> 00:15:51,300
This is a...
quite a decent-sized
primary room.
418
00:15:51,367 --> 00:15:53,367
All right, bathroom.
Right here.
419
00:15:55,767 --> 00:15:58,367
[Michelle] From my opinion,
the shower
is beautiful, David.
420
00:15:58,367 --> 00:16:02,000
-The vanity is great.
Uh, modern, uh, enough.
-[David] Yup.
421
00:16:03,100 --> 00:16:05,567
I will let you guys go first.
422
00:16:05,567 --> 00:16:07,100
[Michelle] It's definitely
smaller than ours.
423
00:16:07,166 --> 00:16:09,000
-[Quincy] It's...
it's quite small.
-[Michelle] Yeah.
424
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:12,400
All right, then.
Uh, well, let's talk money.
425
00:16:12,467 --> 00:16:13,266
[Michelle] Okay.
426
00:16:15,266 --> 00:16:17,166
How do you feel
about it overall?
427
00:16:17,166 --> 00:16:17,967
Underwhelming.
428
00:16:17,967 --> 00:16:19,567
Location? Overwhelmed?
429
00:16:19,567 --> 00:16:21,767
-Overwhelmed. Fantastic.
You hit the mark there.
-[David] Okay.
430
00:16:21,767 --> 00:16:23,166
-Yup.
-[Quincy] You know,
some... some of the things
431
00:16:23,166 --> 00:16:24,467
that we've been talking about
along the way
432
00:16:24,467 --> 00:16:26,100
have been bungalows,
for example, right?
433
00:16:26,166 --> 00:16:27,500
-[David] Oh, really?
-So, let's...
Yeah, definitely.
434
00:16:27,567 --> 00:16:29,400
Well, let me see
what's out there.
There's not a lot.
435
00:16:29,467 --> 00:16:31,166
What do you think
this house is listed at?
436
00:16:31,166 --> 00:16:32,066
$1 million.
437
00:16:32,066 --> 00:16:33,867
I would say $1.2 million.
438
00:16:33,867 --> 00:16:36,767
This house is listed
at $1,250,000.
439
00:16:37,667 --> 00:16:40,367
A lot of that is location.
440
00:16:40,367 --> 00:16:42,066
-Just going to cost you
to get it, uh...
-[Michelle] Hmm.
441
00:16:42,066 --> 00:16:42,461
[David] A completely
done house the way you want it
this close to the water.
442
00:16:42,461 --> 00:16:45,166
[David] A completely
done house the way you want it
this close to the water.
443
00:16:45,166 --> 00:16:46,667
Um, let me see
what I can come up with.
444
00:16:46,667 --> 00:16:48,667
-Yeah, that sounds good.
Thank you.
-[David] Let's go.
445
00:16:50,266 --> 00:16:52,767
-While the location
is fantastic...
-Yeah.
446
00:16:52,767 --> 00:16:54,166
-Um...
-Beautiful.
447
00:16:54,166 --> 00:16:56,200
-Do we have... Do we have
a need for a pool? Not really.
-Yeah.
448
00:16:56,266 --> 00:16:57,500
-Right?
-No.
449
00:16:57,500 --> 00:17:01,867
This was all
about giving them
tranquility and location
450
00:17:01,867 --> 00:17:03,767
that they
don't currently have.
451
00:17:03,767 --> 00:17:05,166
Imagine what the design team
could do.
452
00:17:05,166 --> 00:17:07,867
Hilary and that team,
I'm sure, can do a lot.
453
00:17:07,867 --> 00:17:09,400
-Yeah, they can make the house
look better.
-The house--
454
00:17:09,467 --> 00:17:11,367
But they're not going
to get us off a main road,
455
00:17:11,367 --> 00:17:12,461
-which is one of the biggest
problems that we have.
-Mmm-hmm.
456
00:17:12,461 --> 00:17:13,667
-which is one of the biggest
problems that we have.
-Mmm-hmm.
457
00:17:13,667 --> 00:17:15,667
I don't think they're ready
to spend the money
458
00:17:15,667 --> 00:17:18,367
to get a house
that's fully done
in this neighborhood.
459
00:17:18,367 --> 00:17:21,266
So, I'm going to have
to take them away from here.
460
00:17:21,266 --> 00:17:23,300
Hopefully, not too far.
461
00:17:24,567 --> 00:17:26,567
[upbeat music playing]
462
00:17:26,567 --> 00:17:28,166
Hey, I brought my assistant.
463
00:17:28,166 --> 00:17:30,200
-Go say hi.
-Aw, hi, Suki.
464
00:17:30,266 --> 00:17:31,800
-[Suki panting]
-[Mike chuckles]
465
00:17:31,867 --> 00:17:36,066
So, what's the news
on moving your throne?
466
00:17:36,066 --> 00:17:39,266
We have the option
of moving it to that side
of the bathroom.
467
00:17:39,266 --> 00:17:41,400
That's pretty cool.
It'll be on this side.
468
00:17:41,467 --> 00:17:42,461
So, when you open the door,
you don't see a toilet.
469
00:17:42,461 --> 00:17:43,500
So, when you open the door,
you don't see a toilet.
470
00:17:43,567 --> 00:17:45,100
Okay, so, that's great.
471
00:17:45,166 --> 00:17:47,467
The only thing is,
the one post
in the main floor
472
00:17:47,467 --> 00:17:50,166
is structural. So, you're
going to have to, like,
build that into your design.
473
00:17:50,166 --> 00:17:51,200
Easy.
474
00:17:51,266 --> 00:17:52,700
-Okay.
-Okay.
475
00:17:52,700 --> 00:17:54,166
-I'm good with that. That
doesn't matter. That's easy.
-So, okay?
476
00:17:54,166 --> 00:17:55,567
Perfect.
477
00:17:55,567 --> 00:17:59,967
-Love it. Okay, let's go.
-Aw, I thought
Suki was going to stay.
478
00:17:59,967 --> 00:18:01,667
[narrator] Michelle and Quincy
come by for an update
from Hilary.
479
00:18:01,667 --> 00:18:03,200
-[Hilary] Hi.
-[Quincy] Hello.
How are you doing?
480
00:18:03,266 --> 00:18:05,867
I'm going to lay out
for you the plan.
481
00:18:05,867 --> 00:18:07,367
-Okay.
-Sure, let's go.
482
00:18:07,367 --> 00:18:12,100
This is going to become
your peaceful place
with a door on it.
483
00:18:12,100 --> 00:18:12,461
-Nice.
-That's more like it.
484
00:18:12,461 --> 00:18:13,100
-Nice.
-That's more like it.
485
00:18:13,100 --> 00:18:15,266
So, now, I don't like these.
486
00:18:15,266 --> 00:18:18,200
One of them is structural.
The other one
is just to balance it.
487
00:18:18,266 --> 00:18:20,767
I will close them
into the wall.
488
00:18:20,767 --> 00:18:22,800
-So, you won't even know
they're here.
-Sounds good.
489
00:18:22,867 --> 00:18:24,066
-Okay, good.
-[Quincy chuckles]
490
00:18:24,066 --> 00:18:25,367
[Hilary] Okay, now...
491
00:18:25,367 --> 00:18:26,967
Come into your kitchen area.
492
00:18:26,967 --> 00:18:31,066
To really be able
to extend your storage
the way it should be,
493
00:18:31,066 --> 00:18:33,667
I need to get rid
of this window.
494
00:18:33,667 --> 00:18:36,767
I can bring cabinetry
all the way along here.
495
00:18:36,767 --> 00:18:39,000
I can get a pantry in here.
496
00:18:39,066 --> 00:18:40,967
And I'm going
to give you an island
497
00:18:40,967 --> 00:18:42,461
that will run all the way
along here.
498
00:18:42,461 --> 00:18:43,567
that will run all the way
along here.
499
00:18:43,567 --> 00:18:46,967
Nice and long but not too wide
because we don't have
the depth.
500
00:18:46,967 --> 00:18:48,100
What do you think?
501
00:18:49,867 --> 00:18:51,200
-We want the window.
-[Quincy chuckles]
502
00:18:51,266 --> 00:18:52,767
But you need a pantry.
503
00:18:52,767 --> 00:18:54,300
But we want the window.
504
00:18:54,367 --> 00:18:55,667
[Hilary] What about
just a transom?
505
00:18:55,667 --> 00:18:57,867
I would say a bit more
than a transom.
506
00:18:57,867 --> 00:19:00,500
I would really like the light
on this floor.
507
00:19:00,567 --> 00:19:02,100
Hilary, I really want
a banquette.
508
00:19:02,100 --> 00:19:04,867
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
We're just talking
about cabinetry and a window.
509
00:19:04,867 --> 00:19:05,800
What... what...
Where does the banquette--
510
00:19:05,867 --> 00:19:07,100
I've always wanted
a banquette.
511
00:19:13,567 --> 00:19:15,967
I... I can see the space
with a banquette.
512
00:19:15,967 --> 00:19:18,266
How badly do you really need
and want that?
513
00:19:22,266 --> 00:19:24,200
[Michelle] I need a banquette.
[chuckles] And I need
the window.
514
00:19:24,266 --> 00:19:26,867
I can keep the window,
but you give up the pantry.
515
00:19:27,467 --> 00:19:28,567
No, we need a pantry.
516
00:19:28,567 --> 00:19:30,500
You've just eliminated
a place for the pantry.
517
00:19:30,567 --> 00:19:32,800
The only place left
518
00:19:32,867 --> 00:19:34,266
to give you a pantry,
519
00:19:35,500 --> 00:19:39,767
I could take this opening
from here to these stairs,
520
00:19:39,767 --> 00:19:41,717
I could give you...
521
00:19:41,717 --> 00:19:41,767
I could give you...
522
00:19:41,767 --> 00:19:46,000
you know,
a floor-to-ceiling "pantry,"
523
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,000
which would mean
that this would
be blocked off.
524
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,400
Hilary, a part of it
was the openness
525
00:19:51,467 --> 00:19:54,266
in terms of the sightline
from the front door
to the kitchen.
526
00:19:54,266 --> 00:19:57,300
That was part of the...
the draw, the allure for us.
527
00:19:57,367 --> 00:19:59,166
Could you go to the front door
for a second?
528
00:20:02,767 --> 00:20:05,000
My wall is not going to go
all the way here.
529
00:20:05,066 --> 00:20:07,567
I see. Okay.
530
00:20:07,567 --> 00:20:08,967
[Hilary] Could you live
with that?
531
00:20:08,967 --> 00:20:10,767
I think I can...
I think I can live with that.
532
00:20:10,767 --> 00:20:11,667
-I think so.
-[whispers] He said yes.
533
00:20:11,667 --> 00:20:11,717
Can you live with that?
534
00:20:11,717 --> 00:20:12,867
Can you live with that?
535
00:20:12,867 --> 00:20:14,166
Sure.
536
00:20:14,166 --> 00:20:16,967
Because this is your trade-off
for having that.
537
00:20:16,967 --> 00:20:20,667
It's not as obstructive
as I once thought
it would be, so...
538
00:20:20,667 --> 00:20:21,700
[Hilary] Good.
539
00:20:21,767 --> 00:20:22,900
-Okay with me.
-[Hilary] Thank you.
540
00:20:24,367 --> 00:20:25,667
I never thought
it would be easy.
541
00:20:25,667 --> 00:20:27,667
The minute I walked
into this house,
542
00:20:27,667 --> 00:20:30,767
it's just too small.
543
00:20:30,767 --> 00:20:33,266
The house isn't big enough
to get us the kitchen
that we want.
544
00:20:33,266 --> 00:20:35,266
I mean, but there's...
There are limitations, right?
545
00:20:35,266 --> 00:20:36,667
-That's the problem.
-Given... given the size.
546
00:20:36,667 --> 00:20:38,000
-So...
-But that is the problem.
547
00:20:38,066 --> 00:20:40,467
I will do what I can.
I do think it's going
to be fabulous.
548
00:20:40,467 --> 00:20:41,717
I do think it's going
to be at least 1,000% better.
549
00:20:41,717 --> 00:20:43,767
I do think it's going
to be at least 1,000% better.
550
00:20:43,767 --> 00:20:46,367
However, being able
to stay here,
551
00:20:46,367 --> 00:20:48,500
in proximity to the lake...
[clicks tongue]
552
00:20:48,567 --> 00:20:50,667
So, I think, honestly,
it can be a great idea.
553
00:20:52,700 --> 00:20:54,667
[peppy music playing]
554
00:20:54,667 --> 00:20:56,200
Bungalow that I found,
555
00:20:56,266 --> 00:20:59,266
they're going
to absolutely love.
556
00:21:00,667 --> 00:21:01,867
Four bedrooms,
557
00:21:01,867 --> 00:21:05,800
four bathrooms, a beautiful
open concept main floor
558
00:21:05,867 --> 00:21:08,066
with an incredible kitchen
559
00:21:08,066 --> 00:21:09,400
and a walk-out
to a great backyard.
560
00:21:09,467 --> 00:21:11,717
And a better mudroom
and laundry situation.
561
00:21:11,717 --> 00:21:12,467
And a better mudroom
and laundry situation.
562
00:21:15,166 --> 00:21:20,300
So, we're probably
about 15 minutes
from your house currently.
563
00:21:20,367 --> 00:21:22,367
[Michelle] It is
truly gorgeous.
564
00:21:22,367 --> 00:21:23,367
And it's a bungalow.
565
00:21:23,367 --> 00:21:24,200
It's better than a bungalow.
566
00:21:24,266 --> 00:21:25,667
-Come on.
-[Michelle] Oh, my gosh.
567
00:21:25,667 --> 00:21:27,567
-Look at the door.
-[Quincy] I like the door.
568
00:21:27,567 --> 00:21:28,900
[Michelle] Look at that. Wow.
569
00:21:28,967 --> 00:21:30,367
-[David] Huh?
-[Quincy] I must say,
570
00:21:30,367 --> 00:21:33,000
I... David,
it's pretty impressive.
571
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:34,033
[Michelle chuckles]
572
00:21:34,033 --> 00:21:35,400
This is going to be
your youngest son's room.
573
00:21:36,467 --> 00:21:38,100
Bedroom number one.
574
00:21:38,100 --> 00:21:40,767
The positive is right here.
575
00:21:40,767 --> 00:21:41,717
[Michelle exclaims]
576
00:21:41,717 --> 00:21:42,400
[Michelle exclaims]
577
00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,000
-[David] This is
your son's bathroom.
-[Michelle] Oh. [chuckles]
578
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,800
-Beautiful. It's gorgeous.
-[Quincy] This is...
579
00:21:47,867 --> 00:21:49,867
Let's keep going.
It gets actually better.
580
00:21:49,867 --> 00:21:51,233
[Michelle] Oh.
581
00:21:51,266 --> 00:21:53,000
-[David] 'Cause I know you
love yourself a mudroom.
-Thank you.
582
00:21:53,066 --> 00:21:55,266
[Michelle exclaims
and chuckles excitedly]
583
00:21:55,266 --> 00:21:56,767
Oh, my goodness.
584
00:21:56,767 --> 00:21:58,266
This is flawless.
585
00:21:58,266 --> 00:21:59,567
-[Quincy] I must say,
it's really nice.
-[Michelle] Wow.
586
00:21:59,567 --> 00:22:01,533
Okay. Gorgeous.
587
00:22:01,533 --> 00:22:05,500
-[David] So, you've got your
formal dining room in there.
-[Michelle] Oh, my goodness.
588
00:22:05,567 --> 00:22:08,300
[David] Then, you have
the eat-in kitchen
589
00:22:08,367 --> 00:22:11,717
-family room combination.
-[Michelle chuckles]
Oh, boy.
590
00:22:11,717 --> 00:22:11,767
-family room combination.
-[Michelle chuckles]
Oh, boy.
591
00:22:11,767 --> 00:22:14,100
You've got this
incredible island.
592
00:22:14,166 --> 00:22:16,100
- This is really lovely.
-[Quincy] A lot of space
right there.
593
00:22:16,166 --> 00:22:18,266
This is... spectacular.
594
00:22:18,266 --> 00:22:19,100
[David] Okay. Backyard.
595
00:22:19,100 --> 00:22:20,166
Right this way.
596
00:22:23,166 --> 00:22:24,400
The backyard.
597
00:22:24,467 --> 00:22:26,166
-I mean, as you can see...
-[Michelle] Oh, my God.
598
00:22:26,166 --> 00:22:27,767
...low-maintenance,
599
00:22:27,767 --> 00:22:30,500
-You've got beautiful trees
all around.
-[Michelle] Oh, my goodness.
600
00:22:30,567 --> 00:22:32,600
This is a winner.
601
00:22:32,667 --> 00:22:34,800
[Quincy] Yeah, this is nice.
This is impressive.
602
00:22:34,867 --> 00:22:36,667
-Let's go see your bedroom.
-[Michelle] Oh.
603
00:22:39,100 --> 00:22:41,717
The right size
for a primary bedroom.
604
00:22:41,717 --> 00:22:41,867
The right size
for a primary bedroom.
605
00:22:41,867 --> 00:22:45,400
This is... spectacular.
606
00:22:47,567 --> 00:22:50,000
[exclaims]
607
00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:53,800
Now, this is what a closet
is supposed to look like.
This is perfect.
608
00:22:53,867 --> 00:22:55,433
[David] The bathroom's next.
609
00:22:55,433 --> 00:22:57,300
-[Michelle] I was gonna say,
"Let's see the bathroom."
-[Quincy] Mmm-hmm.
610
00:22:59,767 --> 00:23:02,867
-[Michelle] Oh.
-[Quincy] Stand-up shower
and tub.
611
00:23:02,867 --> 00:23:04,266
-Very nice.
-Yes.
612
00:23:04,266 --> 00:23:05,667
[Michelle] This is absolutely
move-in ready.
613
00:23:05,667 --> 00:23:08,000
Let's, uh, head downstairs
to the basement,
614
00:23:08,066 --> 00:23:10,500
um, which also doesn't need
a stitch of work.
615
00:23:10,567 --> 00:23:11,717
-[Michelle sighs]
-Come on.
616
00:23:11,717 --> 00:23:12,800
-[Michelle sighs]
-Come on.
617
00:23:12,867 --> 00:23:17,667
If your son was here
and he saw where his bedroom
was going to be,
618
00:23:17,667 --> 00:23:20,767
he would flip. Look at this.
619
00:23:20,767 --> 00:23:22,367
[Michelle exclaims
and chuckles]
620
00:23:22,367 --> 00:23:24,266
Remember I was saying
to you, David,
I want a basement
621
00:23:24,266 --> 00:23:26,266
-where you don't feel
like you're in a basement?
-[David] Yeah.
622
00:23:26,266 --> 00:23:27,567
-This is it.
-[David] Yeah.
623
00:23:27,567 --> 00:23:29,166
-Isn't this cool, too?
-[Quincy] And then...
624
00:23:29,166 --> 00:23:31,600
-[Michelle] It's...
It's really beautiful.
-[Quincy] Nice space.
625
00:23:31,667 --> 00:23:34,300
It is... spectacular.
626
00:23:34,367 --> 00:23:35,900
-[David] Mmm-hmm.
-That's the word today,
I think.
627
00:23:35,900 --> 00:23:38,767
-[David] "Spectacular?"
-[Quincy] Spectacular,
spectacular. [all chuckle]
628
00:23:38,767 --> 00:23:40,667
All right, well, let's keep
that theme and look
at this bedroom.
629
00:23:40,667 --> 00:23:41,717
[Michelle] Okay.
630
00:23:41,717 --> 00:23:42,000
[Michelle] Okay.
631
00:23:42,066 --> 00:23:44,567
-Excellent size.
-[David] Yeah.
632
00:23:44,567 --> 00:23:46,200
-All the rooms are great.
-Yeah.
633
00:23:46,266 --> 00:23:47,867
Let's head up to the island...
634
00:23:47,867 --> 00:23:48,867
-Okay.
-[David] ...and talk money.
635
00:23:48,867 --> 00:23:49,967
-Okay.
-[David] Sound good?
636
00:23:49,967 --> 00:23:51,367
-Let's do that. Let's do that.
-[David] Let's go.
637
00:23:52,900 --> 00:23:55,300
I think this house
is spectacular.
638
00:23:55,367 --> 00:23:57,166
What do you think
this house is listed at?
639
00:23:57,166 --> 00:23:59,700
I would say $900,000.
640
00:23:59,767 --> 00:24:03,000
I think this house
is more like $1.2 million.
641
00:24:03,066 --> 00:24:05,767
This house is listed
at $1.2 million.
642
00:24:07,166 --> 00:24:08,166
Well...
643
00:24:08,166 --> 00:24:09,667
Put it closer to the lake,
644
00:24:09,667 --> 00:24:11,717
-and it's $1.5 million.
-Aye...
645
00:24:11,717 --> 00:24:12,367
-and it's $1.5 million.
-Aye...
646
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:14,400
[both chuckle]
647
00:24:14,467 --> 00:24:16,033
[David] That's the dilemma.
648
00:24:16,033 --> 00:24:17,967
Unless you're willing
to spend more money,
you're not getting this house
649
00:24:17,967 --> 00:24:19,367
as close as that house was
650
00:24:19,367 --> 00:24:21,166
-or even as close
as your house was.
-Right.
651
00:24:21,166 --> 00:24:24,266
If I get you closer
to the lake
with a house like this,
652
00:24:24,266 --> 00:24:26,600
would you spend the money
to buy it?
653
00:24:26,667 --> 00:24:31,867
He said upwards of 1.5,
so even higher
than $1.5 million.
654
00:24:31,867 --> 00:24:33,266
You know, you're going
to be looking at an...
655
00:24:33,266 --> 00:24:35,467
at least another couple
of hundred thousand dollars.
656
00:24:35,467 --> 00:24:37,367
-It's well over our budget.
-[Quincy] Mmm-hmm.
657
00:24:37,367 --> 00:24:40,000
But this is clearly
a blueprint of the house
658
00:24:40,066 --> 00:24:41,717
you guys think
is perfect for you.
659
00:24:41,717 --> 00:24:42,567
you guys think
is perfect for you.
660
00:24:42,567 --> 00:24:43,800
Yes.
661
00:24:45,667 --> 00:24:48,200
I knew when I walked
through this house
662
00:24:48,266 --> 00:24:51,400
that it was
absolutely perfect.
663
00:24:51,467 --> 00:24:55,400
And getting a house
more perfect than this
is going to be very difficult.
664
00:24:55,467 --> 00:24:59,767
We are not going to find this
at that price anywhere.
665
00:25:00,700 --> 00:25:02,100
Let's give Hilary
a chance, though.
666
00:25:02,100 --> 00:25:04,800
Getting them closer
to the lake,
667
00:25:04,867 --> 00:25:08,100
even more difficult
unless they're willing
to spend the money
668
00:25:08,100 --> 00:25:10,400
that I've told them
they're going
to have to spend.
669
00:25:10,467 --> 00:25:11,717
We had that whole
notion of the lake,
proximity to the lake--
670
00:25:11,717 --> 00:25:13,600
We had that whole
notion of the lake,
proximity to the lake--
671
00:25:13,667 --> 00:25:15,133
We could drive to the lake.
672
00:25:15,133 --> 00:25:16,967
-The pa... The paved trails,
all those pieces...
-We could... Yeah.
673
00:25:16,967 --> 00:25:19,266
-...that we've become
accustomed to...
-I know, I love it, too.
674
00:25:19,266 --> 00:25:21,300
-Huh.
-We could drive to the lake.
675
00:25:24,266 --> 00:25:26,367
[narrator] Work is underway
as the kitchen is demolished
676
00:25:26,367 --> 00:25:28,200
and the floors are prepped
for new boards.
677
00:25:28,266 --> 00:25:32,166
Michelle and Quincy
come by to see Hilary
and the progress on the house.
678
00:25:32,166 --> 00:25:34,367
-[Hilary] This is your
wonderful sanctuary...
-[Michelle] Mmm-hmm.
679
00:25:34,367 --> 00:25:36,567
-[Hilary] ...whatever we
decide to do in here.
-[Michelle] Yes.
680
00:25:36,567 --> 00:25:40,100
So, I need to talk to you
about the doors.
681
00:25:40,100 --> 00:25:41,717
Option number one
is one pocket door.
682
00:25:41,717 --> 00:25:43,266
Option number one
is one pocket door.
683
00:25:43,266 --> 00:25:46,000
So, obviously, you'd have
a longer wall on one side
684
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:47,600
-and one door.
-[Michelle] Hmm.
685
00:25:47,667 --> 00:25:51,166
Or French doors with,
you know, full glass.
686
00:25:51,166 --> 00:25:53,066
I do like
pocket doors, though...
687
00:25:53,066 --> 00:25:54,200
Um...
688
00:25:54,266 --> 00:25:56,166
Really prefer the idea
of a pocket door,
689
00:25:56,166 --> 00:25:58,600
it... it really leaves
every inch to be used.
690
00:25:58,667 --> 00:26:00,166
-[Hilary] Okay.
-Okay.
691
00:26:00,166 --> 00:26:02,000
-Thank you.
-[Hilary] All right.
692
00:26:06,100 --> 00:26:09,767
[narrator] The kitchen reno
continues as new cabinetry
is installed.
693
00:26:09,767 --> 00:26:11,166
[sawing]
694
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:19,200
We're literally four minutes
from their house.
695
00:26:19,266 --> 00:26:22,100
And just as close to the lake
that they love.
696
00:26:22,767 --> 00:26:24,066
And this house,
697
00:26:24,066 --> 00:26:26,266
open concept, eat-in kitchen,
698
00:26:26,266 --> 00:26:28,700
upstairs, great bedrooms
for the kids,
699
00:26:28,767 --> 00:26:30,767
a beautiful principal bedroom,
700
00:26:30,767 --> 00:26:32,100
that huge walk-in closet,
701
00:26:32,166 --> 00:26:33,467
beautiful bathroom,
702
00:26:33,467 --> 00:26:34,667
finished basement,
703
00:26:34,667 --> 00:26:34,729
walk-out to the backyard.
704
00:26:34,729 --> 00:26:36,100
walk-out to the backyard.
705
00:26:36,100 --> 00:26:39,000
I know they love the bungalow,
but this is
a good opportunity, too.
706
00:26:40,767 --> 00:26:42,900
We are four minutes
from your house.
707
00:26:42,967 --> 00:26:44,400
Close to the lake?
708
00:26:44,467 --> 00:26:45,367
-[Michelle] Yes.
-[Quincy] Very close.
709
00:26:45,367 --> 00:26:46,166
[David] Something
you guys both love?
710
00:26:46,166 --> 00:26:47,400
-Yes.
-Yes, indeed.
711
00:26:47,467 --> 00:26:48,433
-Look and see what you think.
-[Michelle] Okay, let's see.
712
00:26:48,467 --> 00:26:49,467
-[David] Come right up.
-[Quincy] Let's go.
713
00:26:50,700 --> 00:26:52,000
[Michelle] It's okay.
It's okay.
714
00:26:52,000 --> 00:26:53,233
-[David] Just "okay?"
-[Michelle] It's okay.
715
00:26:53,233 --> 00:26:54,533
-[David] Just "okay?"
-[Michelle] Yeah, just "okay."
716
00:26:54,533 --> 00:26:56,367
Remember, we're
in your neighborhood.
Closer to the lake.
717
00:26:56,367 --> 00:26:58,066
-[Michelle] We are
in the neighborhood.
-[David] On a quieter street.
718
00:26:58,066 --> 00:26:59,300
[Michelle] That is good.
719
00:26:59,367 --> 00:27:00,967
First reaction
is "just okay." So...
720
00:27:00,967 --> 00:27:03,667
-Let's keep going.
-[Quincy] Yes.
721
00:27:03,667 --> 00:27:04,729
[David] It's not quite
the mudroom we looked at
in the bungalow.
722
00:27:04,729 --> 00:27:07,400
[David] It's not quite
the mudroom we looked at
in the bungalow.
723
00:27:07,467 --> 00:27:11,500
It's a similar, uh,
sized layout
to what we currently have.
724
00:27:11,567 --> 00:27:13,867
[David] And so,
to the main area.
725
00:27:13,867 --> 00:27:17,200
So, you have your kitchen,
your dining room,
726
00:27:17,266 --> 00:27:19,600
your family room
and your breakfast area.
727
00:27:19,667 --> 00:27:20,467
[Quincy] It's a all-in-one.
728
00:27:20,467 --> 00:27:22,066
All-in-one.
729
00:27:22,066 --> 00:27:24,867
[Michelle] It's okay.
It doesn't compare at all
to the bungalow.
730
00:27:24,867 --> 00:27:26,266
No, it doesn't.
But, you know, one of the...
731
00:27:26,266 --> 00:27:27,700
One of the things
you wanted to be was,
732
00:27:27,700 --> 00:27:29,133
-you wanted to be closer
to the lake.
-[Michelle] Yeah.
733
00:27:29,133 --> 00:27:30,400
-[David] Closer
to your neighborhood.
-[Michelle] Yes.
734
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:31,567
-Let's have a look
at the backyard?
-[Michelle] All right.
735
00:27:32,900 --> 00:27:34,367
-It's nice.
-[David] Cute backyard.
736
00:27:34,367 --> 00:27:34,729
-[Michelle] It is nice.
-[Quincy] Yeah,
nicely landscaped.
737
00:27:34,729 --> 00:27:35,834
-[Michelle] It is nice.
-[Quincy] Yeah,
nicely landscaped.
738
00:27:35,834 --> 00:27:36,900
-[David] Yeah.
-[Michelle] It's nicer
than our backyard.
739
00:27:36,967 --> 00:27:38,000
[Quincy] For sure.
740
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:39,133
[David] We're done
with the main floor.
741
00:27:39,133 --> 00:27:40,767
So, do you want to go
upstairs or downstairs?
742
00:27:40,767 --> 00:27:43,567
-Downstairs.
-Let's do it.
743
00:27:45,200 --> 00:27:47,166
So, behind these two doors
744
00:27:47,166 --> 00:27:49,266
is unfinished storage space.
745
00:27:49,266 --> 00:27:51,066
If you want to finish it off
at some point,
746
00:27:51,066 --> 00:27:52,667
-you can.
-[Quincy and Michelle] Okay.
747
00:27:52,667 --> 00:27:55,867
-[David] This is
my favorite room...
-[Quincy and Michelle exclaim]
748
00:27:55,867 --> 00:27:56,867
-...in the house.
-[Quincy] Well done.
749
00:27:56,867 --> 00:27:58,200
Very nice.
750
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:00,266
Then let's head upstairs,
have a look
at the second floor.
751
00:28:00,266 --> 00:28:02,367
-Okay. Thank you. Yeah.
-Good, good. Let's go.
752
00:28:02,367 --> 00:28:04,700
-[David] Bedroom one
of four up here.
-[Michelle] Yeah.
753
00:28:04,767 --> 00:28:06,100
All right. Let's go see
the bathroom
754
00:28:06,166 --> 00:28:07,467
-your kids are going to share.
-Okay.
755
00:28:10,367 --> 00:28:12,266
-[Michelle] It's good.
-[Quincy] It's a good size
as well.
756
00:28:12,266 --> 00:28:13,767
[Michelle] Way better
than ours.
757
00:28:13,767 --> 00:28:15,000
-[Quincy] A really good size.
-[David] Let's see
the kids' bedrooms.
758
00:28:17,467 --> 00:28:19,166
Kids' bedroom number one.
759
00:28:19,166 --> 00:28:20,800
-[Michelle] It's
a lovely room.
-[Quincy] Yeah.
760
00:28:21,667 --> 00:28:23,000
[David] Kids' bedroom
number two.
761
00:28:23,066 --> 00:28:25,066
[Michelle] Yeah, the rooms
are a great size.
762
00:28:25,066 --> 00:28:26,266
Let's go see
the principal bedroom.
763
00:28:26,266 --> 00:28:27,567
[Michelle exclaims]
764
00:28:27,567 --> 00:28:29,000
It's very nice.
765
00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,400
Uh, storage first.
766
00:28:32,266 --> 00:28:34,729
-[Michelle] Okay.
-[Quincy] It's all ready.
767
00:28:34,729 --> 00:28:34,767
-[Michelle] Okay.
-[Quincy] It's all ready.
768
00:28:34,767 --> 00:28:36,467
As is,
it is better than ours.
769
00:28:36,467 --> 00:28:37,467
Let's go see
the bathroom.
770
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:39,900
-[Quincy] Double vanity.
-[Michelle] Oh.
771
00:28:39,967 --> 00:28:41,900
This to me looks
a little bit dated.
772
00:28:41,967 --> 00:28:43,166
-Right.
-Yeah.
773
00:28:43,166 --> 00:28:45,000
-[David] All right, let's go.
-[Michelle chuckles]
774
00:28:47,266 --> 00:28:49,100
I don't necessarily think
it's the house for us.
775
00:28:49,100 --> 00:28:50,367
Yeah,
I don't think so either.
776
00:28:50,367 --> 00:28:51,867
What do you think
this house is listed at?
777
00:28:51,867 --> 00:28:53,467
$850,000?
778
00:28:53,467 --> 00:28:56,467
-What do you think?
-Mmm, $1.1 million.
779
00:28:56,467 --> 00:29:00,400
-This house is listed at
$1,150,000.
-Hey!
780
00:29:00,467 --> 00:29:01,667
Being close to the lake
781
00:29:01,667 --> 00:29:03,000
is a big deal.
782
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,729
And I would say, probably,
of all the houses
we've looked at,
783
00:29:04,729 --> 00:29:05,367
And I would say, probably,
of all the houses
we've looked at,
784
00:29:05,367 --> 00:29:08,767
the bungalow probably is
the one that you love
the most.
785
00:29:08,767 --> 00:29:09,767
-Agreed.
-Yeah.
786
00:29:09,767 --> 00:29:11,467
So I think we're done
looking at houses, then.
787
00:29:11,467 --> 00:29:12,900
-Yeah, I think so.
-I would agree.
788
00:29:15,100 --> 00:29:17,900
There is no way
that Hilary can compete
789
00:29:17,967 --> 00:29:20,767
with that house
or the quiet
at that location.
790
00:29:20,767 --> 00:29:22,100
I love the location,
791
00:29:22,166 --> 00:29:24,367
um, but it's not comparing
to the bungalow for me.
792
00:29:24,367 --> 00:29:26,367
Yeah, but for me, again,
the bungalow is just...
793
00:29:26,367 --> 00:29:27,900
The location
is the issue, right?
794
00:29:27,967 --> 00:29:30,300
The only shot
that she has at this
795
00:29:31,266 --> 00:29:33,266
is if they decide
that 15 minutes
796
00:29:33,867 --> 00:29:34,729
is too much.
797
00:29:34,729 --> 00:29:35,533
is too much.
798
00:29:38,767 --> 00:29:41,767
[narrator] Michelle's been
inspired by spaces
she's toured with David
799
00:29:41,767 --> 00:29:44,000
and asked to see Hilary
to discuss an idea.
800
00:29:44,066 --> 00:29:45,266
-Hello.
-Hello.
801
00:29:45,266 --> 00:29:46,100
-Hello.
-[man] Hey, guys.
802
00:29:46,166 --> 00:29:47,567
This is what's left
of your house.
803
00:29:47,567 --> 00:29:49,567
-It looks under construction,
that's for sure.
-[Quincy chuckles]
804
00:29:49,567 --> 00:29:51,567
There's actually Hilary
something I wanna
chat with you about
805
00:29:51,567 --> 00:29:52,400
upstairs.
806
00:29:52,467 --> 00:29:53,266
[Hilary] Oh, upstairs?
807
00:29:53,266 --> 00:29:54,300
-Yeah.
-Oh, okay, sure.
808
00:29:57,066 --> 00:29:58,767
We have been
809
00:29:58,767 --> 00:30:01,400
looking at
some fantastic houses
with David,
810
00:30:01,467 --> 00:30:04,367
-and we have seen
some tremendous closets.
-[Hilary] Mmm-hmm.
811
00:30:04,367 --> 00:30:04,729
We really would like
a much bigger
walk-in closet.
812
00:30:04,729 --> 00:30:06,900
We really would like
a much bigger
walk-in closet.
813
00:30:06,967 --> 00:30:08,367
And I'm sure you would.
814
00:30:08,367 --> 00:30:10,100
-I don't blame you.
-[Michelle] Hmm.
815
00:30:10,100 --> 00:30:13,967
Where exactly do you think
this big closet would go?
816
00:30:13,967 --> 00:30:16,867
But it's just such a big
expansive room,
and you know, I'm--
817
00:30:16,867 --> 00:30:18,967
-[Hilary] I agree.
-I'm not sure
what's happening
818
00:30:18,967 --> 00:30:20,800
in the lower area yet.
819
00:30:20,867 --> 00:30:24,266
I don't know,
but we really want
a bigger closet.
820
00:30:24,266 --> 00:30:27,467
Anything to expand
this closet,
821
00:30:27,467 --> 00:30:30,166
so I could build out here,
822
00:30:30,166 --> 00:30:33,266
and bring something
in here on both sides
823
00:30:33,266 --> 00:30:34,667
that could also
be storage.
824
00:30:34,667 --> 00:30:34,729
That would increase
the storage way more
than you could imagine.
825
00:30:34,729 --> 00:30:37,266
That would increase
the storage way more
than you could imagine.
826
00:30:37,266 --> 00:30:38,867
I think the idea is great.
827
00:30:38,867 --> 00:30:41,100
I would love
if they could work them
in to the budget.
828
00:30:41,166 --> 00:30:42,800
-And-And that's what
I would like to do.
-Okay.
829
00:30:42,867 --> 00:30:46,000
I'll see if
there's somewhere that
we can find a way
830
00:30:46,066 --> 00:30:48,166
to change the design
that we've got going,
831
00:30:48,166 --> 00:30:50,100
to pull back
to find the money
for this.
832
00:30:50,100 --> 00:30:51,700
-I think you need this.
-[Michelle] Okay.
833
00:30:54,667 --> 00:30:57,567
[narrator] Hilary hears
from Mike about budgeting
for the closets.
834
00:30:57,567 --> 00:30:59,066
[Hilary over phone]
The main thing for me
835
00:30:59,066 --> 00:31:02,266
is to have maximum
impact and function
with minimal cost.
836
00:31:02,266 --> 00:31:04,000
-[Mike over phone] Well,
you're good for budget.
-All right.
837
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:04,729
[Mike over phone] So,
there's a small issue
with the pocket door setup.
838
00:31:04,729 --> 00:31:06,667
[Mike over phone] So,
there's a small issue
with the pocket door setup.
839
00:31:06,667 --> 00:31:08,700
Just the way
we're trying to build
the pocket door system
840
00:31:08,767 --> 00:31:10,000
in to that framing.
841
00:31:10,066 --> 00:31:12,100
The, uh, millwork
that we pre-ordered
842
00:31:12,166 --> 00:31:14,400
doesn't fit with the new
pocket door design.
843
00:31:14,467 --> 00:31:15,867
[over phone] Not enough room
for the pocket door.
844
00:31:15,867 --> 00:31:18,467
Michelle has now been
sold on a pocket door,
845
00:31:18,467 --> 00:31:20,800
wants a pocket door,
nothing but a pocket door.
846
00:31:20,867 --> 00:31:23,467
[over phone] So,
is this an issue
that is,
847
00:31:23,467 --> 00:31:25,200
literally cannot do?
848
00:31:25,266 --> 00:31:26,734
[Mike over phone] No,
we just can't pull it off.
849
00:31:26,734 --> 00:31:28,166
-Fine.
-[Mike over phone] There's no
room for that pocket door.
850
00:31:28,166 --> 00:31:29,266
That's fine.
851
00:31:29,266 --> 00:31:32,200
[over phone] I actually
by chance, came upon
852
00:31:32,266 --> 00:31:33,767
the next best thing.
853
00:31:33,767 --> 00:31:34,729
So, I'm gonna send it
to you,
854
00:31:34,729 --> 00:31:35,867
So, I'm gonna send it
to you,
855
00:31:35,867 --> 00:31:38,300
you let me know
if it can work, okay?
856
00:31:38,367 --> 00:31:39,467
[Mike over phone]
Sounds good.
857
00:31:39,467 --> 00:31:41,033
All right,
talk to you soon.
858
00:31:42,500 --> 00:31:44,900
[narrator] After hearing
from Mike that her new plan
will work,
859
00:31:44,967 --> 00:31:46,166
Hilary calls Michelle.
860
00:31:46,166 --> 00:31:47,767
[Michelle] Hey, hi,
Hilary.
861
00:31:47,767 --> 00:31:49,100
[Hilary over phone]
Got a bit of
a bad news.
862
00:31:49,166 --> 00:31:51,600
I can't give you
that pocket door.
863
00:31:51,667 --> 00:31:54,000
But I thought
that was already
a, like, a go.
864
00:31:54,066 --> 00:31:57,567
[Hilary over phone] The way
the wall that it would
go in to is built,
865
00:31:57,567 --> 00:31:58,967
it's just not possible.
866
00:31:58,967 --> 00:32:00,700
Pocket door really was a,
867
00:32:00,767 --> 00:32:03,800
important feature for us,
sounds like we don't
have a choice.
868
00:32:03,867 --> 00:32:04,729
[Hilary over phone] I think
I can give you
the next best thing.
869
00:32:04,729 --> 00:32:06,300
[Hilary over phone] I think
I can give you
the next best thing.
870
00:32:06,367 --> 00:32:07,600
-I'm disappointed.
-[Hilary over phone] So--
871
00:32:07,667 --> 00:32:09,567
If you can just trust me.
872
00:32:09,567 --> 00:32:10,800
Okay, all right.
873
00:32:16,266 --> 00:32:17,900
[clanking]
874
00:32:17,967 --> 00:32:19,000
[grunting]
875
00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:24,367
You know, this is
a great neighborhood.
876
00:32:24,367 --> 00:32:25,166
It's gorgeous.
877
00:32:25,166 --> 00:32:26,367
I mean, look at this.
878
00:32:26,367 --> 00:32:28,166
It's like
you're in the middle
of the countryside.
879
00:32:28,166 --> 00:32:29,634
[David] Mmm-hmm.
880
00:32:29,634 --> 00:32:32,266
And I think that's what's
probably going to
keep them where they are
881
00:32:32,266 --> 00:32:34,166
in spite of being
on a busy road.
882
00:32:34,166 --> 00:32:34,729
The thing is,
there's something else
involved here.
883
00:32:34,729 --> 00:32:35,900
The thing is,
there's something else
involved here.
884
00:32:35,967 --> 00:32:37,266
What's that,
finger-wagger?
885
00:32:37,266 --> 00:32:40,066
I found them
a very interesting house.
886
00:32:40,066 --> 00:32:41,400
-Yeah?
-And that's
all the information
887
00:32:41,467 --> 00:32:42,567
I'm gonna give you
for now.
888
00:32:42,567 --> 00:32:44,367
-You'll have to wait
for it.
-[mockingly] Okay.
889
00:32:45,567 --> 00:32:46,467
I'll wait.
890
00:32:57,200 --> 00:32:58,500
-Hi Hilary.
-Good morning, Hilary.
891
00:32:58,567 --> 00:33:00,166
-Good morning. [chuckles]
-[Quincy] Good morning.
892
00:33:00,166 --> 00:33:01,667
I'm great,
how are you?
893
00:33:01,667 --> 00:33:02,867
-Wonderful.
-Fantastic.
894
00:33:02,867 --> 00:33:04,867
-[Hilary] Looking
beautiful.
-Thank you, so are you.
895
00:33:04,867 --> 00:33:08,200
All right so,
it's been a long wait,
896
00:33:08,266 --> 00:33:10,567
and it's been worth
every minute.
897
00:33:10,567 --> 00:33:11,767
-[Quincy] Hmm.
-[Hilary] You ready to go
and take a look?
898
00:33:11,767 --> 00:33:12,767
-Ready.
-Absolutely.
899
00:33:12,767 --> 00:33:13,867
-Let's go.
-[Quincy] We're ready.
900
00:33:18,100 --> 00:33:19,066
-[chuckles]
-[exclaims]
901
00:33:19,066 --> 00:33:19,334
-Oh my God.
-Look at this.
902
00:33:19,334 --> 00:33:21,000
-Oh my God.
-Look at this.
903
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,567
Wow.
904
00:33:28,500 --> 00:33:30,100
Talk about a transformation.
905
00:33:30,500 --> 00:33:31,567
[Michelle] Wow.
906
00:33:31,567 --> 00:33:33,266
You have brand new
floors.
907
00:33:33,266 --> 00:33:35,166
-[Michelle] Yes.
-[Hilary] You have
a brand new staircase.
908
00:33:35,166 --> 00:33:37,900
-[Michelle] Yes.
-You have an entry
that is actually an entry.
909
00:33:37,967 --> 00:33:40,166
-[Michelle] That's
pretty shocking...
-[Hilary] You have--
910
00:33:40,166 --> 00:33:42,300
-[Michelle] ...that one.
-[Hilary] An instantly,
911
00:33:42,367 --> 00:33:44,066
-beautiful house.
-Oh my goodness.
912
00:33:44,066 --> 00:33:46,166
-Wow.
-And now we're gonna go
and look at
913
00:33:46,166 --> 00:33:47,567
-what we've done.
Ready?
-Okay.
914
00:33:47,567 --> 00:33:48,767
Yes, yeah.
915
00:33:48,767 --> 00:33:49,334
[Hilary] So now
we're going to go in to
916
00:33:49,334 --> 00:33:50,667
[Hilary] So now
we're going to go in to
917
00:33:50,667 --> 00:33:53,467
a living room that is
actually gonna work
for you.
918
00:33:53,467 --> 00:33:55,667
-Oh my gosh.
-Will this ever work.
919
00:33:55,667 --> 00:33:57,300
This is beautiful.
920
00:34:01,467 --> 00:34:02,567
-Wow.
-[Hilary] Beautiful lighting.
921
00:34:02,567 --> 00:34:04,600
Look at the fireplace
as well, a stand-out.
922
00:34:04,667 --> 00:34:06,467
-[Michelle] Wow.
-[Hilary] It has
this beautiful front.
923
00:34:06,467 --> 00:34:07,967
-It is...
-It does.
924
00:34:07,967 --> 00:34:09,767
Making a statement
just on its own.
925
00:34:09,767 --> 00:34:10,900
I, honestly,
I'm shocked.
926
00:34:10,967 --> 00:34:12,133
I'm taking it in, like,
927
00:34:12,133 --> 00:34:13,767
I just can't believe
what you've done
with the space.
928
00:34:13,767 --> 00:34:15,233
-It looks--
-Amazing.
929
00:34:15,233 --> 00:34:17,000
-An amazing transformation,
I mean, wow.
-Beautiful, yeah, it's...
930
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,266
This is a great start.
931
00:34:18,266 --> 00:34:19,334
-All right, let go on
in to the kitchen.
-[all chuckling]
932
00:34:19,334 --> 00:34:19,567
-All right, let go on
in to the kitchen.
-[all chuckling]
933
00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:27,166
-Oh my gosh!
-Sconces against the wall.
934
00:34:28,166 --> 00:34:30,400
-I love the light.
-Yes, yes.
935
00:34:34,700 --> 00:34:36,900
-Indeed.
-Oh, the table!
936
00:34:37,300 --> 00:34:38,400
Marble.
937
00:34:38,467 --> 00:34:39,967
It's beautiful.
938
00:34:39,967 --> 00:34:42,200
You've got exactly what
you wanted here.
939
00:34:42,266 --> 00:34:43,867
-Yes.
-This is on-point.
940
00:34:43,867 --> 00:34:45,467
-It is, it's beautiful.
-Right? Yeah,
it's good.
941
00:34:45,467 --> 00:34:48,100
The banquet is exactly
what we wanted,
942
00:34:48,100 --> 00:34:49,334
and yes, Quincy,
943
00:34:49,334 --> 00:34:49,400
and yes, Quincy,
944
00:34:49,467 --> 00:34:50,867
-definitely needed
the window.
-[laughs]
945
00:34:50,867 --> 00:34:52,867
And it looks gorgeous.
946
00:34:52,867 --> 00:34:55,000
Let's move on
to your kitchen.
947
00:34:58,500 --> 00:35:00,800
[Michelle and Quincy
exclaiming]
948
00:35:01,767 --> 00:35:03,667
-Beautiful!
-[exclaims and chuckles]
949
00:35:08,200 --> 00:35:09,667
And it's not
950
00:35:09,667 --> 00:35:10,900
-cramped, like I thought...
-No.
951
00:35:10,967 --> 00:35:12,367
-No it's not cramped
at all, no.
-Maybe an island,
952
00:35:12,367 --> 00:35:13,867
you know,
the idea of the island,
I thought,
953
00:35:13,867 --> 00:35:15,166
it'd be good for space
954
00:35:15,166 --> 00:35:17,066
-but I thought
it would be too...
-Tight?
955
00:35:17,066 --> 00:35:19,334
-[Quincy] Yeah, I did too--
-But it's not,
it's really perfect.
956
00:35:19,334 --> 00:35:19,600
-[Quincy] Yeah, I did too--
-But it's not,
it's really perfect.
957
00:35:19,667 --> 00:35:20,767
[Hilary] Turn left.
958
00:35:20,767 --> 00:35:21,867
Look at this.
959
00:35:21,867 --> 00:35:24,667
-[Michelle exclaims]
-[Quincy] Hmm.
960
00:35:24,667 --> 00:35:27,066
So, as you notice,
you've got these
upper cabinets
961
00:35:27,066 --> 00:35:28,567
you've got the drawers
in here,
962
00:35:28,567 --> 00:35:31,266
and then you've got
more storage--
963
00:35:31,266 --> 00:35:32,667
-Oh, what!
-[chuckles]
964
00:35:32,667 --> 00:35:34,000
More storage!
965
00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:35,967
-[Michelle] Look at this!
-[Quincy speaking
indistinctly]
966
00:35:35,967 --> 00:35:38,100
-It really is
night and day...
-Yeah.
967
00:35:38,100 --> 00:35:41,567
...to what we had
and it looks beautiful.
968
00:35:41,567 --> 00:35:42,500
Let's go in to
the laundry room.
969
00:35:42,567 --> 00:35:43,500
-[Michelle] Oh, boy.
-[Quincy] Hmm.
970
00:35:44,500 --> 00:35:45,567
[Quincy] We're gonna
go right.
971
00:35:45,567 --> 00:35:47,367
-And--
-Oh my God.
972
00:35:47,367 --> 00:35:49,200
Ah, stackable
washer and dryer.
973
00:35:54,767 --> 00:35:56,867
-Whoa, backsplash?
-Look at that sink.
974
00:35:56,867 --> 00:35:58,867
[Michelle] Wallpaper,
tile, what are we
looking... [chuckles]
975
00:35:58,867 --> 00:36:01,066
-What are we looking at?
-[Hilary] You've got
everything here.
976
00:36:01,066 --> 00:36:05,266
-This is beautiful.
-There's storage everywhere,
it looks sleek.
977
00:36:05,266 --> 00:36:07,000
Ta-da!
978
00:36:07,066 --> 00:36:09,300
-Organization, right?
-[Michelle] Oh!
979
00:36:09,367 --> 00:36:11,600
-Closet organizer.
-[Quincy] It's so
organized.
980
00:36:11,667 --> 00:36:14,000
-Right? This is really nice.
-Yeah, it's great.
981
00:36:14,867 --> 00:36:16,700
All right, so...
982
00:36:16,767 --> 00:36:19,334
-You do remember
the powder room? [chuckles]
-[Quincy exclaims]
983
00:36:19,334 --> 00:36:19,400
-You do remember
the powder room? [chuckles]
-[Quincy exclaims]
984
00:36:20,100 --> 00:36:22,000
[both exclaiming]
985
00:36:28,166 --> 00:36:30,200
Babe, look at the,
the wallpaper, eh?
986
00:36:30,266 --> 00:36:31,867
-[Michelle] Oh my.
-[Quincy exclaims]
987
00:36:31,867 --> 00:36:34,000
-[Michelle] Yeah,
this is very nice.
-[Quincy] This looks--
988
00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:35,300
-[Hilary] Okay, good.
-Wow.
989
00:36:35,367 --> 00:36:36,700
-It's simply...
-All right.
990
00:36:36,767 --> 00:36:38,100
So, we're doing well
I think,
991
00:36:38,166 --> 00:36:39,266
-so far?
-Okay, yeah.
992
00:36:39,266 --> 00:36:40,567
-Let's go, keep going.
-[both exclaim in agreement]
993
00:36:41,667 --> 00:36:43,700
Giving you privacy
with this door,
994
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:46,200
was a challenge,
as you know.
995
00:36:46,266 --> 00:36:48,166
-And I just asked you
to trust me.
-Yeah.
996
00:36:48,166 --> 00:36:49,334
-Yes. Yes.
-[Hilary] And you did.
997
00:36:49,334 --> 00:36:50,066
-Yes. Yes.
-[Hilary] And you did.
998
00:36:50,066 --> 00:36:51,266
And this is what we have.
999
00:36:51,266 --> 00:36:52,333
-[Michelle] Okay.
-So I hope
you like it.
1000
00:36:52,367 --> 00:36:54,000
Oh, can't wait
to see it,
I'm sure we will.
1001
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:55,300
-[both chuckle]
-[Hilary] All right,
let's go.
1002
00:36:56,767 --> 00:36:58,767
Oh!
1003
00:36:58,767 --> 00:36:59,900
[chuckles in surprise]
1004
00:36:59,967 --> 00:37:01,867
It's beautiful!
1005
00:37:08,567 --> 00:37:12,400
-This used to be a terrible
horrible looking dining room.
-[all chuckle]
1006
00:37:12,467 --> 00:37:14,800
-[Quincy] Dining table,
right?
-[Michelle] Oh my God.
1007
00:37:14,867 --> 00:37:16,867
[Hilary] You have
a table here
covered with kids' stuff.
1008
00:37:16,867 --> 00:37:17,934
-[Michelle] Yes.
-[Quincy] Yeah.
1009
00:37:17,934 --> 00:37:19,334
-This is like
a small oasis...
-This light...
1010
00:37:19,334 --> 00:37:19,367
-This is like
a small oasis...
-This light...
1011
00:37:19,367 --> 00:37:21,667
-[Michelle] ...I love
this lighting.
-It's just wow.
1012
00:37:21,667 --> 00:37:23,767
-This is beautiful.
-[Michelle exclaims]
1013
00:37:23,767 --> 00:37:26,367
So the door is
what I was
describing to you,
1014
00:37:26,367 --> 00:37:28,200
that you wouldn't see
the hinges,
1015
00:37:28,266 --> 00:37:29,800
-you wouldn't see anything.
-Yeah.
1016
00:37:29,867 --> 00:37:31,400
[Hilary] You would have
the benefit,
1017
00:37:31,467 --> 00:37:34,266
the same benefit
as you would
with a pocket door.
1018
00:37:34,266 --> 00:37:35,367
So you're okay
with that, right?
1019
00:37:35,467 --> 00:37:37,467
I wouldn't have been
able to envision it,
1020
00:37:37,467 --> 00:37:39,467
I've never seen
anything like that before,
1021
00:37:39,467 --> 00:37:40,500
-but it is...
-I know.
1022
00:37:41,066 --> 00:37:41,867
Sleek.
1023
00:37:41,867 --> 00:37:43,700
-Yeah, good solution.
-Yeah.
1024
00:37:44,266 --> 00:37:45,800
We're not done yet.
1025
00:37:45,867 --> 00:37:47,166
We still need to
go upstairs.
1026
00:37:47,166 --> 00:37:48,567
-[Michelle] Oh my gosh.
-[Quincy speaks indistinctly]
1027
00:37:48,567 --> 00:37:49,334
All right,
here we go.
1028
00:37:49,334 --> 00:37:50,166
All right,
here we go.
1029
00:37:52,367 --> 00:37:54,667
-[Michelle exclaims]
-Hey, the floor, eh?
1030
00:37:58,500 --> 00:38:00,400
[exclaiming]
1031
00:38:00,467 --> 00:38:03,467
Well, the floor is certainly
um, breathtaking.
1032
00:38:03,467 --> 00:38:05,367
-Absolutely.
-Oh, and the tiles.
[chuckles]
1033
00:38:05,367 --> 00:38:07,166
My word.
1034
00:38:07,166 --> 00:38:08,700
-It's lovely.
-[Quincy] Amazing.
1035
00:38:08,767 --> 00:38:10,400
Good.
All right, now.
1036
00:38:11,967 --> 00:38:13,100
Whoo!
1037
00:38:13,166 --> 00:38:14,967
-Is this what we...
-[exclaims in surprise]
1038
00:38:14,967 --> 00:38:17,166
-...once called
our bedroom?
-No way!
1039
00:38:21,400 --> 00:38:25,867
-Oh, geez, there's just simply
no way.
-Is this... [chuckling]
1040
00:38:25,867 --> 00:38:28,900
[Quincy] An accent wall
as well, like, wow.
1041
00:38:30,100 --> 00:38:32,400
-Like, oh my God.
-[Quincy] Yeah.
1042
00:38:32,467 --> 00:38:34,066
[Hilary] All right
let's talk about
1043
00:38:34,066 --> 00:38:37,700
-really important
functional things in here.
-[Michelle] Okay, whoa.
1044
00:38:37,767 --> 00:38:38,900
[chuckling]
1045
00:38:38,967 --> 00:38:40,600
Like the bathroom?
1046
00:38:40,667 --> 00:38:42,367
-Maybe?
-Oh. Yes.
1047
00:38:42,367 --> 00:38:43,700
-Yeah, we're caught up
on this...
-Maybe we should kinda,
1048
00:38:43,767 --> 00:38:44,834
-take a look at that?
-Yeah.
1049
00:38:44,834 --> 00:38:46,000
-Yes, let's-let's do that.
-Okay, let's do that.
1050
00:38:46,000 --> 00:38:47,100
[chuckles]
1051
00:38:48,767 --> 00:38:49,334
[chuckles in surprise]
1052
00:38:49,334 --> 00:38:50,166
[chuckles in surprise]
1053
00:38:50,166 --> 00:38:51,667
[both chuckling]
1054
00:38:51,667 --> 00:38:53,500
-Oh.
-Oh, look at this.
1055
00:38:58,400 --> 00:39:01,200
Mmm, oh my goodness.
1056
00:39:01,266 --> 00:39:03,166
-Oh my goodness.
-[Quincy] Wow.
1057
00:39:03,166 --> 00:39:05,166
This is beautiful.
1058
00:39:05,166 --> 00:39:07,400
-[Michelle] Talk about
the shower.
-[Hilary] It's huge.
1059
00:39:07,467 --> 00:39:09,867
[Michelle] Oh my gosh,
is it ever.
1060
00:39:09,867 --> 00:39:13,867
-[Quincy] Mmm.
-[Hilary] This is another
sanctuary space.
1061
00:39:13,867 --> 00:39:15,767
[Michelle] Definitely
spa-like.
1062
00:39:15,767 --> 00:39:18,166
Well, if I could find
the bellboy, but um,
1063
00:39:18,166 --> 00:39:19,300
-I don't know where he is.
-[both laughing]
1064
00:39:19,300 --> 00:39:19,334
-So I'm gonna continue
the tour.
-[both laughing]
1065
00:39:19,334 --> 00:39:21,000
-So I'm gonna continue
the tour.
-[both laughing]
1066
00:39:22,667 --> 00:39:23,567
[Hilary] Closet.
1067
00:39:24,266 --> 00:39:26,500
-[both chuckle]
-Oh...
1068
00:39:26,567 --> 00:39:28,767
-No flippin' way!
-[chuckling]
1069
00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:34,166
This is beautiful.
1070
00:39:34,166 --> 00:39:35,767
[Michelle] Oh my gosh.
1071
00:39:35,767 --> 00:39:38,367
Seriously, Hilary,
this is um,
1072
00:39:38,367 --> 00:39:39,600
outstanding.
1073
00:39:39,600 --> 00:39:42,967
-[Hilary] You've got
an organizer.
-[both exclaiming]
1074
00:39:42,967 --> 00:39:44,166
-This is seriously...
-This is beautiful.
1075
00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:47,367
-...um, so well put-together,
so organized.
-Yeah.
1076
00:39:47,367 --> 00:39:49,000
[Michelle] This is perfect.
1077
00:39:49,066 --> 00:39:49,334
[Hilary] Take a look
at the extra storage,
right here.
1078
00:39:49,334 --> 00:39:51,300
[Hilary] Take a look
at the extra storage,
right here.
1079
00:39:51,367 --> 00:39:52,266
[Michelle] Look at this.
1080
00:39:53,266 --> 00:39:54,200
Look at this.
1081
00:39:54,266 --> 00:39:56,467
-Like... Right?
-[Michelle] Oh my gosh!
1082
00:39:56,467 --> 00:39:59,500
-Wanna take a look
over there?
-Let's just do this, okay.
1083
00:39:59,567 --> 00:40:00,266
[Quincy] Wow.
1084
00:40:01,066 --> 00:40:02,867
We like. [chuckling]
1085
00:40:02,867 --> 00:40:04,967
[Hilary] So, this is it.
1086
00:40:04,967 --> 00:40:07,700
Now David must have
shown you
a fantastic house,
1087
00:40:07,767 --> 00:40:10,667
-because he's downstairs
chomping at the bit...
-He did.
1088
00:40:10,667 --> 00:40:12,100
...dying to remind you
of that.
1089
00:40:12,166 --> 00:40:14,066
-So, you go off
and meet him there...
-Yes.
1090
00:40:14,066 --> 00:40:16,000
-...and I'll catch up with you
in a little bit.
-[both] Okay.
1091
00:40:18,667 --> 00:40:19,334
Welcome back
to your house.
1092
00:40:19,334 --> 00:40:20,266
Welcome back
to your house.
1093
00:40:20,266 --> 00:40:21,800
-Thank you.
-Yes, thanks, David.
1094
00:40:21,867 --> 00:40:23,266
Looks amazing.
1095
00:40:23,266 --> 00:40:24,367
-Yes.
-It does.
1096
00:40:24,367 --> 00:40:25,567
There's two things
I love about it,
1097
00:40:25,567 --> 00:40:27,166
one is how beautiful
it is,
1098
00:40:27,166 --> 00:40:30,967
the second is
how it has raised
the value of this house
1099
00:40:30,967 --> 00:40:34,367
-to allow you to get
the dream bungalow...
-[Michelle] Hmm.
1100
00:40:34,367 --> 00:40:35,667
[David] ...that we
looked at.
1101
00:40:35,667 --> 00:40:37,567
Do you remember
how quiet it was
on that street?
1102
00:40:37,567 --> 00:40:39,133
-I do.
-[chuckling]
1103
00:40:39,133 --> 00:40:40,867
-[David] Open concept,
eat-in kitchen...
-[Michelle] Yeah.
1104
00:40:40,867 --> 00:40:42,300
[David] ...family room
combination.
1105
00:40:42,300 --> 00:40:44,000
- Then you have
the formal dining room.
-[Michelle] Yes.
1106
00:40:44,066 --> 00:40:46,367
[David] Then you go
in to that incredible
mud-room
1107
00:40:46,367 --> 00:40:48,100
slash laundry room
combination,
1108
00:40:48,166 --> 00:40:49,334
and the bedroom situation,
two on the main level
and two below.
1109
00:40:49,334 --> 00:40:51,500
and the bedroom situation,
two on the main level
and two below.
1110
00:40:51,567 --> 00:40:53,166
And then the main bedroom,
1111
00:40:53,166 --> 00:40:55,200
that was so spacious,
it had its own hallway.
1112
00:40:55,266 --> 00:40:57,467
And it had a beautiful
walk-in closet
1113
00:40:57,467 --> 00:40:59,300
- and a spa bathroom.
-[Michelle] Yes, yes.
1114
00:40:59,367 --> 00:41:01,367
[David] You've got
that great deck,
great backyard.
1115
00:41:01,367 --> 00:41:03,000
-[Michelle] Awesome.
-One more thing
to talk about,
1116
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:03,967
money.
1117
00:41:04,967 --> 00:41:06,667
That is now the value
of your house
1118
00:41:06,667 --> 00:41:08,667
with the renovation
that has been done.
1119
00:41:08,667 --> 00:41:09,700
-Hmm.
-That's...
1120
00:41:10,266 --> 00:41:11,700
Good.
1121
00:41:11,700 --> 00:41:14,600
[narrator]
The pre-renovation value
of this home was $900,000.
1122
00:41:14,667 --> 00:41:17,600
With a final renovation
budget of 150,000,
1123
00:41:17,667 --> 00:41:19,334
the new estimated value
of this home is $1,150,000.
1124
00:41:19,334 --> 00:41:21,700
the new estimated value
of this home is $1,150,000.
1125
00:41:21,767 --> 00:41:24,900
That's an increase
in value of $250,000.
1126
00:41:25,767 --> 00:41:27,667
Love the banquette.
1127
00:41:27,667 --> 00:41:30,100
-Yeah. Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
-Wanted the banquette.
1128
00:41:30,166 --> 00:41:32,367
I think you have to be
gracious to a degree
1129
00:41:32,367 --> 00:41:35,767
and admit that this is
a fantastic renovation.
1130
00:41:35,767 --> 00:41:38,900
I-I have to admit,
this is uh,
this is incredible.
1131
00:41:38,967 --> 00:41:41,200
The only thing is,
none of the bedrooms,
1132
00:41:41,266 --> 00:41:43,266
aside from ours,
as their own bathroom.
1133
00:41:43,266 --> 00:41:44,667
And in the other house,
1134
00:41:44,667 --> 00:41:47,166
-two of the bedrooms
have their own bathroom.
-Two...
1135
00:41:47,166 --> 00:41:48,900
I guess you couldn't
do anything about
the traffic, huh?
1136
00:41:48,967 --> 00:41:49,334
Do you know,
oddly enough, no.
1137
00:41:49,334 --> 00:41:50,900
Do you know,
oddly enough, no.
1138
00:41:50,967 --> 00:41:53,266
This is just too busy
of a street.
1139
00:41:53,266 --> 00:41:55,567
Mmm-hmm, although,
again, you can walk
to the lake here, right?
1140
00:41:55,567 --> 00:41:57,367
-Yes.
-I think we've made
a decision.
1141
00:41:58,367 --> 00:41:59,300
I think we have.
1142
00:42:01,100 --> 00:42:02,066
Decision made?
1143
00:42:02,066 --> 00:42:03,567
-Decision has been made.
-Yes.
1144
00:42:03,567 --> 00:42:05,200
And?
Are you gonna love it?
1145
00:42:05,266 --> 00:42:07,000
Or, are you going
to list it?
1146
00:42:08,500 --> 00:42:10,667
-We are going to...
-To love it.
1147
00:42:10,667 --> 00:42:11,800
-What?
-[Quincy] Yes.
1148
00:42:11,867 --> 00:42:13,200
-Aw, it's okay.
-[Quincy] We're going to
love it.
1149
00:42:13,266 --> 00:42:14,867
-Aw!
-[Quincy laughs]
1150
00:42:14,867 --> 00:42:17,166
-Really?
-The bungalow
absolutely
1151
00:42:17,166 --> 00:42:19,334
-ticks so many boxes.
-It does.
1152
00:42:19,334 --> 00:42:19,667
-ticks so many boxes.
-It does.
1153
00:42:19,667 --> 00:42:23,166
[Michelle] But we do love
the transformation
of the home
1154
00:42:23,166 --> 00:42:25,967
-and we love the area,
so we're going to...
-Mmm-hmm.
1155
00:42:25,967 --> 00:42:27,166
-...love it.
-Love it.
1156
00:42:27,166 --> 00:42:29,200
That's so great.
Okay, I'm so happy.
1157
00:42:29,266 --> 00:42:31,266
-Well, it was a pleasure
working with you.
-[Quincy] Likewise.
1158
00:42:31,266 --> 00:42:32,967
-It was a pleasure.
-[both] Thank you.
1159
00:42:32,967 --> 00:42:34,200
-[David] Take care.
-You as well.
1160
00:42:36,367 --> 00:42:39,867
They may have said
"love it" today,
but I guarantee you,
1161
00:42:39,867 --> 00:42:41,567
in a couple of weeks,
1162
00:42:41,567 --> 00:42:43,567
after they put up
with that traffic,
1163
00:42:43,567 --> 00:42:45,800
they are gonna be back
to looking
at that bungalow.
1164
00:42:45,867 --> 00:42:47,900
Right here, right now,
they loved it,
1165
00:42:47,967 --> 00:42:49,334
and I'm proud
of this renovation.
1166
00:42:49,334 --> 00:42:50,000
and I'm proud
of this renovation.
1167
00:42:50,000 --> 00:42:52,467
I think it was really
one of the best
I've ever done
1168
00:42:52,467 --> 00:42:54,500
with such a challenge
in terms of space.
1169
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:57,700
I got it.
