1
00:00:01,066 --> 00:00:02,100
We've been dreaming
about this for years.
2
00:00:02,100 --> 00:00:03,066
Years.
3
00:00:03,066 --> 00:00:05,300
[Brian] Mark, Jessica,
and their two daughters
4
00:00:05,300 --> 00:00:07,100
have lived
all over the world.
5
00:00:07,100 --> 00:00:08,200
I'm in the US Army.
6
00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:12,667
We went to Germany, Texas,
Honduras, New York, Hawaii.
7
00:00:12,667 --> 00:00:15,600
We lost a lot of friends
as we left different places.
8
00:00:15,600 --> 00:00:16,667
Right.
9
00:00:16,667 --> 00:00:19,500
[Mika] And now, they're eager
to set roots in Florida.
10
00:00:19,500 --> 00:00:21,367
[Brian] He is covered
in vines.
11
00:00:21,367 --> 00:00:23,066
This might be the most
challenging ground-break
12
00:00:23,066 --> 00:00:25,100
we have ever done.
13
00:00:25,100 --> 00:00:27,500
[Brian] Will their love
of old world charm...
14
00:00:27,500 --> 00:00:28,667
[Jessica] I love
the stonework.
15
00:00:28,667 --> 00:00:29,667
This looks like very French.
16
00:00:29,667 --> 00:00:33,100
-Okay.
-Real stone is real expensive.
17
00:00:33,100 --> 00:00:34,867
[Brian] ...bring them
their happily ever after?
18
00:00:34,867 --> 00:00:35,767
Moment of truth.
19
00:00:35,767 --> 00:00:36,900
[Mark] It looks so big.
20
00:00:36,900 --> 00:00:37,867
Oh, my God.
21
00:00:38,767 --> 00:00:39,567
[Mika]
Let's go check this out.
22
00:00:39,567 --> 00:00:40,567
This is so beautiful.
23
00:00:40,567 --> 00:00:41,367
[Mika] Yeah.
24
00:00:41,367 --> 00:00:43,266
These blueprints
are gonna be a reality.
25
00:00:43,266 --> 00:00:44,367
Let's go.
26
00:00:44,367 --> 00:00:45,567
[Mika] Brian and I know
a thing or two
27
00:00:45,567 --> 00:00:48,467
about building custom homes
on fast timelines.
28
00:00:48,467 --> 00:00:51,667
There's always a reason
why they need their home done
29
00:00:51,667 --> 00:00:53,266
in 100 days.
30
00:00:53,266 --> 00:00:54,367
Second baby is on the way.
31
00:00:54,367 --> 00:00:56,166
Hurricane season
is around the corner.
32
00:00:56,166 --> 00:00:59,100
[Brian]
And now we're expanding
to renovations too.
33
00:00:59,100 --> 00:01:01,166
We're gonna flip-flop
everything in this house.
34
00:01:01,166 --> 00:01:03,467
We don't know
what's behind the walls.
35
00:01:03,467 --> 00:01:06,066
[Mika] Whether it's a new
build or a renovation,
36
00:01:06,066 --> 00:01:08,467
each project has its own
set of challenges.
37
00:01:08,467 --> 00:01:10,667
This is the exterior
of the townhome.
38
00:01:10,667 --> 00:01:11,567
You raise it that a foot...
39
00:01:11,567 --> 00:01:12,400
-[Mika] I know.
-...it's a lot of work.
40
00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:13,800
[Mika] I know it is.
41
00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:15,166
[Brian] But the look
on our clients' faces
42
00:01:15,166 --> 00:01:16,800
makes it all worth it.
43
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,767
-[man] Oh, my God.
-[woman 1] Oh, my gosh.
44
00:01:18,767 --> 00:01:20,700
[woman 2] I am
in heaven right now.
45
00:01:20,700 --> 00:01:23,834
[upbeat music playing]
46
00:01:29,567 --> 00:01:31,767
[Brian] Mark and Jessica,
you found us.
47
00:01:31,767 --> 00:01:32,867
[Mika laughs]
Hello there, family.
48
00:01:32,867 --> 00:01:34,000
-How are you?
-[Mark] Hi.
49
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,066
-[Jessica] Hello.
-[Mika] Hi.
50
00:01:35,066 --> 00:01:36,300
[Brian] There are so many
trees on this lot,
51
00:01:36,300 --> 00:01:38,000
I didn't think you'd ever
find us back here.
52
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,066
We have over 300 trees.
53
00:01:40,066 --> 00:01:42,100
Where are you thinking
this house is gonna go?
54
00:01:42,100 --> 00:01:43,266
Somewhere in the middle.
55
00:01:43,266 --> 00:01:44,400
That way we can still
be, like, in...
56
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:45,800
-In the forest.
-[Mika] Love that.
57
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,100
-...but like...
-But in Riverview.
58
00:01:47,100 --> 00:01:50,266
...still have our own little
place of solitude.
59
00:01:50,266 --> 00:01:51,600
-[Brian] Yeah.
-Our oasis.
60
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,967
[Brian]
How many acres is this?
61
00:01:52,967 --> 00:01:54,266
[Mark] Seven and a half.
62
00:01:54,266 --> 00:01:56,900
Seven and a half acres
in the middle of Riverview.
63
00:01:56,900 --> 00:02:00,400
Ah, Riverview,
where the journey started.
64
00:02:00,400 --> 00:02:01,667
[Brian] And continues.
65
00:02:01,667 --> 00:02:03,166
[Mika] We have been living our
entire lives in this area.
66
00:02:03,166 --> 00:02:04,367
[Brian] I know.
67
00:02:04,367 --> 00:02:05,600
Then we went
to high school here.
68
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,667
Jade went to pre-school
just down the street,
69
00:02:07,667 --> 00:02:09,467
so we know
this area very well.
70
00:02:09,467 --> 00:02:11,000
Who do we have here?
71
00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:12,767
-I'm Olivia.
-[Brian] Hi, Olivia.
72
00:02:12,767 --> 00:02:13,867
[Olivia] I'm 16.
73
00:02:13,867 --> 00:02:15,300
-And I'm Ava.
-[Brian] Ava.
74
00:02:15,300 --> 00:02:16,266
[Ava] I'm 17.
75
00:02:16,266 --> 00:02:17,000
[Brian] Nice to meet you.
76
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,266
[Mika] Olivia and Ava.
I love that.
77
00:02:18,266 --> 00:02:19,600
[Brian]
How did you find this lot?
78
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:20,400
[Mark] The internet.
79
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:21,500
[Brian] Yeah.
80
00:02:21,500 --> 00:02:22,867
What are you gonna do
when you wanna live
in Florida,
81
00:02:22,867 --> 00:02:24,266
but you're in Hawaii?
82
00:02:24,266 --> 00:02:25,867
So you guys bought
this like sight unseen?
83
00:02:25,867 --> 00:02:26,667
Yeah.
84
00:02:26,667 --> 00:02:27,700
I'm curious what you do.
85
00:02:27,700 --> 00:02:28,800
I'm in the Army.
86
00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:29,767
I'm a Black Hawk
helicopter pilot.
87
00:02:29,767 --> 00:02:31,233
-Say what?
-Wow.
88
00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:32,767
-Okay.
-Very cool.
89
00:02:32,767 --> 00:02:33,900
You might have the coolest job
90
00:02:33,900 --> 00:02:35,433
of any client
I've ever worked with.
91
00:02:36,367 --> 00:02:38,100
[Mark] So when I was a junior
in the military,
92
00:02:38,100 --> 00:02:39,867
I would fly a lot more.
93
00:02:39,867 --> 00:02:42,000
Now I train the next
generation of pilots.
94
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:43,100
So it's very rewarding
95
00:02:43,100 --> 00:02:45,767
as I'm preparing
for retirement.
96
00:02:45,767 --> 00:02:47,166
[Mika] I mean, my parents
were Air Force,
97
00:02:47,166 --> 00:02:49,100
but we never got Hawaii
as an assignment.
98
00:02:49,100 --> 00:02:50,367
I'm a little bit jealous.
99
00:02:50,367 --> 00:02:51,266
How long did you guys
stay there?
100
00:02:51,266 --> 00:02:52,500
-Uh--
-We were there
for two years.
101
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:53,767
[upbeat music playing]
102
00:02:53,767 --> 00:02:55,266
[Brian] What's the most
favorite place
103
00:02:55,266 --> 00:02:57,867
you guys have ever lived
in the entire world?
104
00:02:57,867 --> 00:02:59,000
Probably Germany.
105
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,266
There were so many things...
106
00:03:00,266 --> 00:03:02,000
-[Brian] Yeah.
-...to do.
107
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,800
[Mark] In Germany, just being
right in the middle of Europe.
108
00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,400
Hey, let's go to France.
109
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:06,567
[Brian] Yeah.
110
00:03:06,567 --> 00:03:07,667
It's an hour and a half away.
111
00:03:07,667 --> 00:03:09,066
Where are you guys
originally from?
112
00:03:09,066 --> 00:03:10,000
Valrico, Florida.
113
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,100
[Brian] So you guys
are from here?
114
00:03:11,100 --> 00:03:12,767
[Mark] Yeah. We know
each other from high school.
115
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,266
[Jessica]
He dated my best friend.
116
00:03:15,266 --> 00:03:16,166
We're still friends.
117
00:03:16,166 --> 00:03:19,266
Uh, but we met
in the hallway
118
00:03:19,266 --> 00:03:21,300
and he came in and...
119
00:03:21,300 --> 00:03:23,166
I'm not allowed to talk
about your hair, am I?
120
00:03:23,166 --> 00:03:24,033
Okay.
121
00:03:24,033 --> 00:03:25,567
Not allowed to talk
about his hair, but...
122
00:03:25,567 --> 00:03:27,200
Yeah. You can say...
You can say I kind of
look like a hippy if you want.
123
00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,533
It was long.
124
00:03:30,166 --> 00:03:31,800
-It was very pretty. Um--
-See? She said it was pretty.
125
00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:33,166
So she did like my long hair.
126
00:03:33,166 --> 00:03:34,567
I did not think it was pretty
back then though.
127
00:03:34,567 --> 00:03:35,667
[laughs]
128
00:03:35,667 --> 00:03:36,700
[Brian]
Talk about a full circle.
129
00:03:36,700 --> 00:03:37,800
-Well, you see...
-My goodness.
130
00:03:37,800 --> 00:03:39,200
...you're gonna
wind up in Florida
131
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,200
which is
where you guys started.
132
00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:42,567
Yeah.
133
00:03:42,567 --> 00:03:43,867
[Mark] This is home.
We want this to be home.
134
00:03:43,867 --> 00:03:46,467
[Jessica] With him retiring
and our kids getting older,
135
00:03:46,467 --> 00:03:49,166
it's really important
to come here and set roots.
136
00:03:49,166 --> 00:03:50,600
I get to keep
all my friends...
137
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:51,500
Yeah.
138
00:03:51,500 --> 00:03:53,667
...and I get to actually
know people down here.
139
00:03:53,667 --> 00:03:54,734
-Yeah.
-Mmm-hmm.
140
00:03:54,734 --> 00:03:56,000
-That means a lot.
-And I'm very excited
about that.
141
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,567
Like, on the airplane,
we're leaving from Germany,
142
00:03:58,567 --> 00:04:00,867
she was just, like...
[whimpering]
143
00:04:00,867 --> 00:04:02,800
just crying for, like,
144
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:04,867
the first half hour
of the flight.
145
00:04:04,867 --> 00:04:06,367
You weren't even
sitting with me.
146
00:04:06,367 --> 00:04:08,767
I was sitting
right in front of you.
147
00:04:08,767 --> 00:04:10,367
Where are you guys
currently living right now?
148
00:04:11,867 --> 00:04:13,367
-It's a little complicated.
-[laughs]
149
00:04:13,367 --> 00:04:15,800
[Mark] I'm stationed
in Alabama, I'm living there.
150
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,066
Ava's living with me,
151
00:04:17,066 --> 00:04:18,600
while she's taking
online courses.
152
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:21,000
The next semester is gonna be
in-person classes for her.
153
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:22,033
Oh.
154
00:04:22,033 --> 00:04:24,000
So we've gotta get this house
done by next semester.
155
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,166
Deadline, deadline,
deadline, deadline.
156
00:04:25,166 --> 00:04:26,233
[Mark] Deadline.
157
00:04:26,233 --> 00:04:27,567
[Brian] Jessica and Olivia,
where are you guys living?
158
00:04:27,567 --> 00:04:29,100
[Jessica] My dad lives
five minutes down the road.
159
00:04:29,100 --> 00:04:32,000
So I kind of flex
between up in Alabama
160
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:33,367
and here in Florida.
161
00:04:33,367 --> 00:04:35,500
Olivia started
high school down here
162
00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:36,800
so that she could
start her school
163
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,000
-that she'll graduate from...
-[Mika] Mmm-hmm.
164
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,367
...and have friends.
165
00:04:39,367 --> 00:04:40,567
-Her forever friends.
-Yeah.
166
00:04:40,567 --> 00:04:41,400
Yes.
167
00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:42,667
Like, her friends
that she doesn't have
168
00:04:42,667 --> 00:04:43,500
-to move away from
in three years.
-I'm excited for that.
169
00:04:43,500 --> 00:04:45,166
[Jessica]
Being able to be here,
170
00:04:45,166 --> 00:04:47,367
be with family, and...
171
00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:49,734
[girls] Aw...
172
00:04:52,066 --> 00:04:54,100
-It just means a lot to me.
-[Mark] Yeah.
173
00:04:54,100 --> 00:04:56,867
Well, we're gonna get you home
and get you home soon.
174
00:04:56,867 --> 00:04:58,667
What are the things
we need to put in this house
175
00:04:58,667 --> 00:05:00,300
so that
there's no more moving?
176
00:05:00,300 --> 00:05:02,100
At least three bedrooms
and a office.
177
00:05:02,100 --> 00:05:03,166
-[Mika] Okay.
-[Brian] Okay.
178
00:05:03,166 --> 00:05:04,367
Their bedrooms on the other
side of the house.
179
00:05:04,367 --> 00:05:05,467
-[Brian] Whoa.
-[Mika] Oh.
180
00:05:05,467 --> 00:05:06,667
I love how
she just took a minute.
181
00:05:06,667 --> 00:05:07,867
[Brian]
Hey, and she pointed to you.
182
00:05:07,867 --> 00:05:09,066
It was like,
183
00:05:09,066 --> 00:05:10,400
"Get on the other side
of the house."
184
00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:12,400
They're older teenagers,
they're young adults.
185
00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:13,800
[Mika] Mmm-hmm.
186
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:14,967
And they need some freedom,
they need their space,
187
00:05:14,967 --> 00:05:16,100
so I wanna give them that.
188
00:05:16,100 --> 00:05:17,867
One of the things
we do need in the new home
189
00:05:17,867 --> 00:05:19,700
is a really big lanai.
190
00:05:19,700 --> 00:05:21,000
-Oh, absolutely.
-Ooh. Okay.
191
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:24,300
So do you kind of have, like,
a look that you're going for?
192
00:05:24,300 --> 00:05:28,100
Yeah. We really liked
a lot of the features
of the houses in Germany,
193
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:29,200
-that modern look.
-Mmm-hmm.
194
00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:30,700
But old world charm.
195
00:05:30,700 --> 00:05:32,800
[Mika] I think it'll be
really cool to infuse that...
196
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,367
-Yeah.
-...character.
197
00:05:34,367 --> 00:05:36,166
And I'm totally, like,
relating to you guys,
198
00:05:36,166 --> 00:05:37,700
because I know
in the military housing,
199
00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:40,200
all the houses were the same
shade of khaki, right?
200
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:41,200
[Jessica] Yeah.
201
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,567
White walls, plain.
202
00:05:42,567 --> 00:05:44,000
[Mika] After this house
is built,
203
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:45,266
you can hang up the pictures
204
00:05:45,266 --> 00:05:47,000
and paint a wall
a certain color.
205
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:50,100
How much have you guys saved
to build your dream home?
206
00:05:50,100 --> 00:05:52,567
$739,000.
207
00:05:52,567 --> 00:05:53,533
-[Brian] What?
-[Mika] To the tee.
208
00:05:54,867 --> 00:05:56,000
And $0.15.
209
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:58,266
-[laughter]
-Yes. Give me that
extra $0.15.
210
00:05:58,266 --> 00:05:59,100
-You can't go over.
-[Mark] No.
211
00:05:59,100 --> 00:06:00,266
Can't go over.
212
00:06:00,266 --> 00:06:02,000
-[Mika] We got a lot
of planning to do...
-[Brian] Yes.
213
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,166
...especially while
you're here in town,
214
00:06:03,166 --> 00:06:04,166
-so we gotta get to it.
-[Brian] The home.
215
00:06:04,166 --> 00:06:05,467
Yeah. Let's get to work.
216
00:06:05,467 --> 00:06:07,166
[Brian] Need to bring
my hiking boots.
217
00:06:08,100 --> 00:06:10,800
[upbeat music playing]
218
00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:13,266
[Mika] Mark, I know
you're gonna be heading
back to Alabama pretty soon.
219
00:06:13,266 --> 00:06:16,100
And today I really
wanna get a visual
220
00:06:16,100 --> 00:06:17,400
of not only
of the footprint of the home,
221
00:06:17,400 --> 00:06:19,900
but maybe some design
decisions too.
222
00:06:19,900 --> 00:06:21,100
[Jessica] Yes.
223
00:06:21,100 --> 00:06:22,266
The whole theme
with Mark and Jessica
224
00:06:22,266 --> 00:06:25,066
is old world
meets new construction.
225
00:06:25,066 --> 00:06:27,000
We have to figure out
what that means.
226
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,000
This home is a historical
home here in Tampa.
227
00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:31,667
What is your
first impression?
228
00:06:31,667 --> 00:06:33,600
[Jessica]
I don't like the brick.
229
00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,066
[Mika] Okay.
230
00:06:35,066 --> 00:06:36,967
Would you change the brick out
for something else?
231
00:06:36,967 --> 00:06:38,867
I would like a large stone
232
00:06:38,867 --> 00:06:41,567
and we don't really need
much of a front porch.
233
00:06:41,567 --> 00:06:44,734
Our style
is just not really this.
234
00:06:45,367 --> 00:06:46,567
[Mika] Okay.
235
00:06:46,567 --> 00:06:47,867
We've gotten
a good start to the day,
236
00:06:47,867 --> 00:06:49,867
but we still gotta go
see another house.
237
00:06:49,867 --> 00:06:50,767
-Ready?
-Okay.
238
00:06:50,767 --> 00:06:51,767
-Yeah.
-Let's do it.
239
00:06:51,767 --> 00:06:52,800
[Mika] Come with me.
240
00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,000
[upbeat music playing]
241
00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,767
[Mika] With the exterior
of this house,
242
00:06:56,767 --> 00:06:58,266
you got like the stonework.
243
00:06:58,266 --> 00:06:59,667
[Jessica]
I love the stonework.
244
00:06:59,667 --> 00:07:01,233
I really like
this archway on the top.
245
00:07:01,767 --> 00:07:02,533
[Mika] Mmm-hmm.
246
00:07:02,533 --> 00:07:04,367
-This looks like very French.
-Okay.
247
00:07:04,367 --> 00:07:06,367
So while we're kind of
looking at this exterior,
248
00:07:06,367 --> 00:07:07,900
I mean, how big of a garage?
249
00:07:07,900 --> 00:07:09,266
[Mark] We're a family of four.
250
00:07:09,266 --> 00:07:11,066
So we need at least
a three-car garage.
251
00:07:11,066 --> 00:07:13,000
Okay. Also if you notice
252
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:14,266
the orientation of the garage,
253
00:07:14,266 --> 00:07:15,667
you kind of got
this courtyard.
254
00:07:15,667 --> 00:07:16,533
[Jessica] Yes.
255
00:07:16,533 --> 00:07:18,667
I feel like it kind of
brings in that style
256
00:07:18,667 --> 00:07:19,967
that we're going for.
257
00:07:19,967 --> 00:07:21,567
I'd worry about backing out,
258
00:07:21,567 --> 00:07:22,300
because there's...
259
00:07:22,300 --> 00:07:23,567
There really is not
straight shot
260
00:07:23,567 --> 00:07:25,200
-to get out anywhere.
-[Mika] Yeah.
261
00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:27,600
She has a history of damaging
a couple of vehicles.
262
00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:29,000
Say what?
263
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:30,600
[Jessica] He had to put
those pool noodles
264
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,200
in one house garage...
265
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,467
-So she knew where to stop...
-...so that--
266
00:07:33,467 --> 00:07:34,867
and she didn't hit
anything with the doors.
267
00:07:34,867 --> 00:07:36,300
Not until I knew
where to stop,
268
00:07:36,300 --> 00:07:38,900
but like so that
when I did hit it,
269
00:07:38,900 --> 00:07:42,367
I hit the noodle
not the house.
270
00:07:42,367 --> 00:07:43,800
We definitely don't want
any accidents happening
271
00:07:43,800 --> 00:07:46,000
in this brand new house that
we're building for you.
272
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,967
But I really like
the courtyard.
273
00:07:47,967 --> 00:07:51,367
Is there a way
that we could maybe do
a drive-through garage?
274
00:07:51,367 --> 00:07:52,400
-Like you...
-Okay.
275
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:53,567
go through it here
276
00:07:53,567 --> 00:07:55,467
and then there's another
garage door
on the other side and--
277
00:07:55,467 --> 00:07:56,967
[Mika] Oh,
I see what you're saying.
278
00:07:56,967 --> 00:07:58,867
-Okay. I feel like...
-No reverse needed.
279
00:07:58,867 --> 00:08:01,266
I think we might have
to make a very custom garage.
280
00:08:01,266 --> 00:08:02,333
You guys have seven acres.
281
00:08:02,333 --> 00:08:04,200
We can do whatever the heck
you want with the garages.
282
00:08:04,200 --> 00:08:05,667
I feel like
we should head inside
283
00:08:05,667 --> 00:08:08,367
and see what other
cool features we can pool.
284
00:08:08,367 --> 00:08:10,300
-Let's do it.
-[Mark] I can't wait.
285
00:08:10,300 --> 00:08:12,967
[Mika] I know
that you've probably had
286
00:08:12,967 --> 00:08:15,567
several different
styles of kitchens.
287
00:08:15,567 --> 00:08:17,000
What are your thoughts?
288
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,000
[Jessica] I really like
the white cabinets.
289
00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:20,367
[Mika] Okay. You guys thinking
you wanna incorporate
290
00:08:20,367 --> 00:08:22,300
any color
in your kitchen space?
291
00:08:22,300 --> 00:08:24,266
We definitely need
a splash of color in here.
292
00:08:24,266 --> 00:08:27,000
[Jessica] I like red,
like a crimson red.
293
00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,300
I was leaning
more towards blue,
294
00:08:28,300 --> 00:08:29,900
because there's a lot
more option for blues.
295
00:08:29,900 --> 00:08:32,967
With red, if you go
too light, you're pink.
296
00:08:32,967 --> 00:08:34,467
But I like red.
297
00:08:34,467 --> 00:08:35,800
Yeah. I don't
want her seeing red
298
00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:37,100
and I don't want her
feeling blue.
299
00:08:37,100 --> 00:08:38,166
So we gotta figure it out.
300
00:08:38,166 --> 00:08:39,767
Are there any other
features in here?
301
00:08:39,767 --> 00:08:43,066
I like the size
of this island.
302
00:08:43,066 --> 00:08:44,100
[Mika] All right.
303
00:08:44,100 --> 00:08:46,266
[Jessica] But I don't like
a sink in the island.
304
00:08:46,266 --> 00:08:49,000
Since I make bread,
I have to knead the bread
305
00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:49,767
and so I like it...
306
00:08:49,767 --> 00:08:50,734
[Mika] Ah.
307
00:08:50,734 --> 00:08:53,166
...to be just a place
where I can do food prep.
308
00:08:53,166 --> 00:08:54,500
[Mika] Okay.
309
00:08:54,500 --> 00:08:57,000
Let's, uh, travel on.
310
00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,967
[Mika] This house has a pantry
I want you to check out.
311
00:08:58,967 --> 00:09:01,166
It's kind of small.
312
00:09:01,166 --> 00:09:04,800
If it could be definitely
a lot bigger than this
313
00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,367
and it would be better for me
314
00:09:06,367 --> 00:09:08,367
if it was accessed
from the kitchen.
315
00:09:08,367 --> 00:09:09,934
So we actually want it
in the kitchen space.
316
00:09:10,567 --> 00:09:11,333
Yes.
317
00:09:11,333 --> 00:09:13,867
But if it could be
the same cabinets,
318
00:09:13,867 --> 00:09:16,166
so that it's like
a hidden space maybe?
319
00:09:16,166 --> 00:09:18,266
We can camouflage it,
make it more functional
320
00:09:18,266 --> 00:09:19,233
and in the kitchen for you.
321
00:09:19,867 --> 00:09:21,066
All right. Cool, you guys.
322
00:09:21,066 --> 00:09:22,900
So let's check out
some other spaces.
323
00:09:22,900 --> 00:09:24,000
-That last.
-Mika, before we go on,
324
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:25,567
I'm noticing
this ceiling here.
325
00:09:25,567 --> 00:09:27,700
-[Mika] Yeah.
-[Mark] It's really
catching my eye.
326
00:09:27,700 --> 00:09:29,867
[Mika] It definitely
has kind of nice, like,
327
00:09:29,867 --> 00:09:31,600
warm feeling
with the brick detail.
328
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:32,700
[Mark] I love it.
329
00:09:32,700 --> 00:09:35,767
I think we definitely need
to bring some stone inside.
330
00:09:35,767 --> 00:09:37,266
Just a little bit
more of that old world.
331
00:09:37,266 --> 00:09:38,467
Some of what I've seen
332
00:09:38,467 --> 00:09:41,233
they would have
exterior walls inside.
333
00:09:44,166 --> 00:09:45,367
[Mika] On the inside
of the house?
334
00:09:45,367 --> 00:09:46,467
You do not look
like you're a fan.
335
00:09:47,567 --> 00:09:49,634
What are your thoughts,
Jessica?
336
00:09:50,400 --> 00:09:51,634
Um...
337
00:09:53,667 --> 00:09:54,667
He kind of
surprised you with that.
338
00:09:54,667 --> 00:09:57,834
[suspenseful music playing]
339
00:09:59,100 --> 00:10:00,000
[Mark] I'm noticing
the ceiling here.
340
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:01,300
I love it.
341
00:10:01,300 --> 00:10:03,500
I think we definitely need
to bring some stone,
342
00:10:03,500 --> 00:10:05,400
that old world, inside.
343
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,900
And most in the military
homes that we have lived in
344
00:10:07,900 --> 00:10:12,100
have been really basic,
where they apply to everybody.
345
00:10:12,100 --> 00:10:13,000
This house is gonna be ours,
346
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,667
so I like making it
a little bit more fun.
347
00:10:15,667 --> 00:10:19,066
We might even be able
to use the same stone
from the archway.
348
00:10:19,066 --> 00:10:20,166
Hmm.
349
00:10:20,166 --> 00:10:22,266
It would be
kind of cool to tie in
350
00:10:22,266 --> 00:10:24,266
that aesthetic that you have
from the outside.
351
00:10:24,266 --> 00:10:27,333
I mean, not on my ceiling.
352
00:10:28,100 --> 00:10:29,166
Right now we're just looking
353
00:10:29,166 --> 00:10:31,700
at this one brick veneer,
right?
354
00:10:31,700 --> 00:10:33,700
But there might be a stone
355
00:10:33,700 --> 00:10:34,967
that you fall in love
with enough
356
00:10:34,967 --> 00:10:35,900
to where you'd be
comfortable having it
357
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:38,100
on the outside
and the inside.
358
00:10:38,100 --> 00:10:39,266
I understand
what you're saying,
359
00:10:39,266 --> 00:10:41,266
because when we were
in France and Germany,
360
00:10:41,266 --> 00:10:43,266
Croatia, Greece,
361
00:10:43,266 --> 00:10:45,467
we did see
some really cool houses
362
00:10:45,467 --> 00:10:46,967
that had
the old stone on the front
363
00:10:46,967 --> 00:10:48,667
and then you see it
somewhere else
364
00:10:48,667 --> 00:10:49,867
within the home.
365
00:10:49,867 --> 00:10:53,500
So it does add
textures that I want.
366
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:54,300
Mmm-hmm.
367
00:10:54,300 --> 00:10:56,400
If we can find
a compromise of a space
368
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,266
that it makes sense
where it's not overbearing.
369
00:10:59,266 --> 00:11:01,867
Accent walls are really cool.
370
00:11:01,867 --> 00:11:02,767
[Jessica] Yeah, yeah.
371
00:11:02,767 --> 00:11:04,367
-[Mika] All right. Cool.
-I'm gonna trust you.
372
00:11:04,367 --> 00:11:06,300
I hope you do.
373
00:11:06,300 --> 00:11:07,166
We still have
some more to see.
374
00:11:07,166 --> 00:11:08,500
[Jessica] Okay.
375
00:11:08,500 --> 00:11:10,300
[Mika] How do you envision
your transition
376
00:11:10,300 --> 00:11:11,667
from inside to outside?
377
00:11:11,667 --> 00:11:13,000
[Jessica] I'm not
a big fan of the sliders.
378
00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:14,467
I really like a French door.
379
00:11:14,467 --> 00:11:17,100
I feel like a lot of France
is gonna be in this house.
380
00:11:17,100 --> 00:11:18,300
I love it,
it's all about the travel.
381
00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:19,800
[Jessica]
Just put it all together.
382
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,467
[Mika] Let's keep it rolling.
383
00:11:21,467 --> 00:11:24,467
I wanna get an idea
for Ava and Olivia.
384
00:11:24,467 --> 00:11:26,767
So you wanna put
their personality in,
385
00:11:26,767 --> 00:11:28,667
I need to figure out
what that is.
386
00:11:28,667 --> 00:11:29,734
[Mark] Olivia is very artsy.
387
00:11:29,734 --> 00:11:31,900
[Jessica] Well, she does stuff
with drama at school...
388
00:11:31,900 --> 00:11:32,967
[Mika] Yeah.
389
00:11:32,967 --> 00:11:34,300
and she loves her fashion.
390
00:11:34,300 --> 00:11:38,100
In here, you kind of got
this nice bold rich color.
391
00:11:38,100 --> 00:11:40,367
[Jessica]
I think that she would
definitely be open to it.
392
00:11:40,367 --> 00:11:42,166
She's definitely
my color kid.
393
00:11:42,166 --> 00:11:43,400
[Mika] Awesome.
What about Ava?
394
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,367
Ava is very simplistic.
395
00:11:45,367 --> 00:11:46,367
Ooh.
396
00:11:46,367 --> 00:11:48,767
She actually doesn't even
like her bed on a frame.
397
00:11:48,767 --> 00:11:51,166
She wants her mattress
on the floor.
398
00:11:51,166 --> 00:11:53,600
Because she's such
a big fan of Japan.
399
00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:55,100
-[Mika] Okay.
-[Mark] Yeah.
400
00:11:55,100 --> 00:11:56,500
[Mika] We know that we have
to have their rooms,
401
00:11:56,500 --> 00:11:58,367
kind of, separate
in a split floor plan.
402
00:11:58,367 --> 00:12:01,000
Do you guys wanna do
like an en suite
to each of their bedrooms?
403
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:02,266
They definitely need
two bathrooms.
404
00:12:02,266 --> 00:12:03,266
[Mika] Okay.
405
00:12:03,266 --> 00:12:05,767
Uh, but maybe making
one of them an en suite
406
00:12:05,767 --> 00:12:07,266
and then the other one
407
00:12:07,266 --> 00:12:10,266
a bathroom that's, kind of,
shared with the house.
408
00:12:10,266 --> 00:12:11,767
[Mika] Okay.
It's coming together.
409
00:12:11,767 --> 00:12:13,700
Today, I got enough
information
410
00:12:13,700 --> 00:12:15,367
to where Brian and I
can really come up
411
00:12:15,367 --> 00:12:17,367
with a footprint
that's gonna be functional
412
00:12:17,367 --> 00:12:18,600
for their family
413
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,700
and give it
a lot of character.
414
00:12:20,700 --> 00:12:22,166
They have 7 beautiful acres,
415
00:12:22,166 --> 00:12:23,767
this house is going to be
416
00:12:23,767 --> 00:12:25,266
the spotlight
right in the middle.
417
00:12:28,767 --> 00:12:31,100
[bird cawing]
418
00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:34,333
[upbeat music playing]
419
00:12:37,767 --> 00:12:38,867
[Brian] Mark and Jessica,
420
00:12:38,867 --> 00:12:40,400
you guys
are moving to Riverview
421
00:12:40,400 --> 00:12:43,600
and, uh, here is the view
of the Alafia River.
422
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:44,867
[Mika] Yeah.
423
00:12:44,867 --> 00:12:46,266
We figured we give you
a little taste
of the Riverview community.
424
00:12:46,266 --> 00:12:47,266
[Brian] Uh-huh.
425
00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:48,867
Since you're gonna be
calling this home.
426
00:12:48,867 --> 00:12:49,734
[laughs]
427
00:12:49,734 --> 00:12:50,867
Are you all ready
to check out this house?
428
00:12:50,867 --> 00:12:52,734
-Yes.
-[Mika] All right.
429
00:12:54,066 --> 00:12:56,367
Starting with the exterior
of the house,
430
00:12:56,367 --> 00:12:59,100
giving it stonework
on the entryway
431
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:02,200
really gives that entry
like a defined focal point.
432
00:13:02,200 --> 00:13:03,233
It's beautiful.
433
00:13:03,233 --> 00:13:04,467
[Mark] It is. I really love
the feature on the roof,
434
00:13:04,467 --> 00:13:05,867
how the roof lines
go together.
435
00:13:05,867 --> 00:13:07,266
[Mika]
I'm glad you noticed that,
436
00:13:07,266 --> 00:13:08,467
because the high peaks
are something else
437
00:13:08,467 --> 00:13:10,166
that you see a lot
when you're going through
438
00:13:10,166 --> 00:13:11,667
different countries
in Europe.
439
00:13:11,667 --> 00:13:13,567
[Brian] You know
what you don't see anywhere
440
00:13:13,567 --> 00:13:16,066
are drive-through garages.
441
00:13:16,066 --> 00:13:18,066
You might be
a trend setter with this.
442
00:13:18,066 --> 00:13:20,567
We gave you
a three-car garage
443
00:13:20,567 --> 00:13:21,667
and you're gonna be
able to drive
444
00:13:21,667 --> 00:13:23,100
directly through two of them,
445
00:13:23,100 --> 00:13:24,900
so you don't have to worry
about backing up.
446
00:13:24,900 --> 00:13:27,667
-It's perfect.
-[Jessica] Fantastic.
447
00:13:27,667 --> 00:13:30,066
[Mika] Right when you walk in,
we've got a big open area
448
00:13:30,066 --> 00:13:31,700
with a great room
and a kitchen.
449
00:13:31,700 --> 00:13:33,100
[Brian]
And off the great room,
450
00:13:33,100 --> 00:13:35,000
we gave you French doors
that are gonna open out
451
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:36,467
to that beautiful lanai.
452
00:13:36,467 --> 00:13:37,600
[Mika] Having that huge lanai
453
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:39,100
gives you
that outdoor capability
454
00:13:39,100 --> 00:13:40,567
to make a dining room
and extra living room.
455
00:13:40,567 --> 00:13:41,467
[Mark] Yeah.
456
00:13:41,467 --> 00:13:42,667
This looks amazing.
457
00:13:42,667 --> 00:13:44,467
-[Jessica] It's perfect.
-[Mark] Yeah.
458
00:13:44,467 --> 00:13:46,367
[Mika] Off the great room
towards the back
of the house,
459
00:13:46,367 --> 00:13:48,367
you have a really cool
office space.
460
00:13:48,367 --> 00:13:50,100
[Brian]
One of your main priorities
461
00:13:50,100 --> 00:13:52,367
was a huge walk-in pantry.
462
00:13:52,367 --> 00:13:55,000
We made it a hidden pantry
behind the cabinets,
463
00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,567
but all part of the kitchen.
464
00:13:56,567 --> 00:13:58,600
That is great and, it looks
like a whole another room.
465
00:13:58,600 --> 00:13:59,634
Oh, it is.
466
00:13:59,634 --> 00:14:00,867
What are you gonna do in there
other than mill wheat?
467
00:14:00,867 --> 00:14:01,867
Secret dance parties.
468
00:14:01,867 --> 00:14:04,567
Yes, that's the wheat
milling party room.
469
00:14:04,567 --> 00:14:05,967
[laughs]
470
00:14:05,967 --> 00:14:07,767
[Mika] The girls' rooms
are gonna be positioned
471
00:14:07,767 --> 00:14:09,166
on the right side
of the house.
472
00:14:09,166 --> 00:14:10,467
They both have
their own bathrooms.
473
00:14:10,467 --> 00:14:12,000
One's gonna be attached
to the room,
474
00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,467
the other one's right there,
475
00:14:13,467 --> 00:14:15,500
so it can be also
a guest bathroom if need be.
476
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:17,200
They're gonna love it.
477
00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:18,200
So you're main suite,
478
00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:19,367
it's tucked away
479
00:14:19,367 --> 00:14:21,467
on the other side
of the house from the girls
480
00:14:21,467 --> 00:14:22,967
and you have a soaking tub,
481
00:14:22,967 --> 00:14:25,166
double vanities,
and a walk-in shower.
482
00:14:25,166 --> 00:14:26,166
[Jessica] I don't know.
483
00:14:26,166 --> 00:14:27,567
As we get older,
I think a bench
484
00:14:27,567 --> 00:14:29,400
would be really good
in there.
485
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,467
[Brian] Yeah. Absolutely.
486
00:14:30,467 --> 00:14:31,367
[Mark] It's also
a good place
487
00:14:31,367 --> 00:14:33,700
to put the extra shampoos
and conditioners.
488
00:14:33,700 --> 00:14:35,467
You used to have
quite the long hair.
489
00:14:35,467 --> 00:14:36,767
Are you considering
growing it out again?
490
00:14:36,767 --> 00:14:38,100
-Is that why you need
a shampoo stalls?
-[Mika] Mmm-hmm.
491
00:14:38,100 --> 00:14:40,100
I like to leave my options
open for retirement.
492
00:14:40,100 --> 00:14:41,400
-[Mika laughs]
-[Mark] So maybe.
493
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:43,066
[Mika] In total,
494
00:14:43,066 --> 00:14:44,800
you have three bedrooms
and three baths,
495
00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:46,000
and you have
a three-car garage.
496
00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:47,200
[Brian]
A drive-through garage.
497
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:48,367
[Mika] That's right.
498
00:14:48,367 --> 00:14:50,667
Plus the office,
2,900 square feet.
499
00:14:50,667 --> 00:14:52,500
[Brian] And this was
a tough budget for us,
500
00:14:52,500 --> 00:14:56,400
but we got it
at exactly $739,000.
501
00:14:56,400 --> 00:14:58,667
-[Mika] And $0.15.
-[Brian] And $0.15.
502
00:14:58,667 --> 00:14:59,600
This is unbelievable.
503
00:14:59,600 --> 00:15:01,500
It's more than anything
I could've ever imagine.
504
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:03,867
This is goodbye
for now to you, Mark.
505
00:15:03,867 --> 00:15:05,300
I just wanna say
thank you for your service.
506
00:15:05,300 --> 00:15:06,800
I know you're heading
back to Alabama,
507
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,467
but, uh, you're in good hands.
508
00:15:08,467 --> 00:15:09,233
Thank you.
509
00:15:09,233 --> 00:15:10,400
[Mika] Super excited
to get started.
510
00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,533
[upbeat music playing]
511
00:15:16,700 --> 00:15:18,133
[Brian] Oh, my gosh.
512
00:15:19,767 --> 00:15:21,367
This lot is like a jungle.
513
00:15:21,367 --> 00:15:23,467
We have so much
clearing to do
514
00:15:23,467 --> 00:15:25,567
before we can actually
get down to the dirt
515
00:15:25,567 --> 00:15:27,000
and get down
to business too.
516
00:15:27,000 --> 00:15:29,200
[upbeat music playing]
517
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:30,967
[Brian]
So I was just in Africa
518
00:15:30,967 --> 00:15:32,000
with my dad and brother
a couple months ago.
519
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:32,867
[Walt] Yeah.
520
00:15:32,867 --> 00:15:34,266
I feel like
I'm back on safari.
521
00:15:34,266 --> 00:15:35,667
So-far as you can see,
522
00:15:35,667 --> 00:15:37,233
what do you think
we have to do here?
523
00:15:38,166 --> 00:15:41,033
-[laughter]
-Starting up already.
524
00:15:41,767 --> 00:15:43,467
We have to de-vine it.
525
00:15:43,467 --> 00:15:46,367
Woo-hoo-hoo!
He is covered in vines.
526
00:15:46,367 --> 00:15:47,400
[laughs]
527
00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:48,667
Keep coming!
528
00:15:48,667 --> 00:15:50,066
We have to take
all the old trees out,
529
00:15:50,066 --> 00:15:51,467
all the underbrush.
530
00:15:51,467 --> 00:15:53,667
-Hey! Hey!
-[Walt] Hey! There he is!
531
00:15:53,667 --> 00:15:56,967
[laughter]
532
00:15:56,967 --> 00:15:58,567
[Brian] Man!
533
00:15:58,567 --> 00:15:59,867
This might be
the most challenging
534
00:15:59,867 --> 00:16:01,934
ground-break
we have ever done.
535
00:16:03,367 --> 00:16:05,567
Typically, a ground-break
should take about a day.
536
00:16:05,567 --> 00:16:07,367
This one's gonna
take several days.
537
00:16:11,867 --> 00:16:14,834
[upbeat music playing]
538
00:16:21,667 --> 00:16:23,100
-[man 1]
Come-a, come-a, coming.
-[man 2] Okay.
539
00:16:23,100 --> 00:16:23,967
Okay?
540
00:16:25,967 --> 00:16:28,300
[Brian] We have five
garage door openings,
541
00:16:28,300 --> 00:16:31,467
which means massive headers
that go over each one,
542
00:16:31,467 --> 00:16:33,066
and these things
are not light.
543
00:16:33,066 --> 00:16:34,233
All right. Duck.
544
00:16:40,066 --> 00:16:41,467
There we go.
545
00:16:41,467 --> 00:16:43,734
All right, Walter. Come on.
It's the last one.
546
00:16:44,900 --> 00:16:46,166
Oh!
547
00:16:46,166 --> 00:16:47,667
Oh, my gosh.
548
00:16:47,667 --> 00:16:48,700
Looks good.
549
00:16:48,700 --> 00:16:50,066
It's the first drive-through
garage we've ever done.
550
00:16:50,066 --> 00:16:51,000
[Brian] I think
it's kind of cool.
551
00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:52,066
-[Walt] It is cool.
-[Brian] Hey,
552
00:16:52,066 --> 00:16:54,066
they're gonna gain
a peace of mind from Jessica
553
00:16:54,066 --> 00:16:55,000
not having to back up.
554
00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,333
[Walt] No car repairs.
555
00:16:57,600 --> 00:16:59,266
[Brian] So we started block
early this morning
556
00:16:59,266 --> 00:17:00,166
when the sun was rising.
557
00:17:00,166 --> 00:17:01,567
I mean, check it out.
558
00:17:01,567 --> 00:17:04,567
We just placed our last block
as the sun is setting.
559
00:17:04,567 --> 00:17:06,600
Smaller house blocking
in one day, no big deal.
560
00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:11,100
A house this size,
almost 3,000 square feet,
is unheard of.
561
00:17:11,100 --> 00:17:12,900
Busy day,
but a very productive one.
562
00:17:12,900 --> 00:17:14,367
Many hands
make a light work, doesn't it?
563
00:17:14,367 --> 00:17:15,300
[Brian] Absolutely.
564
00:17:15,300 --> 00:17:17,467
I think I counted,
like, 24 workers here today.
565
00:17:17,467 --> 00:17:18,567
[Walt] Really?
566
00:17:18,567 --> 00:17:20,600
Actually, like, 25,
including us.
567
00:17:20,600 --> 00:17:22,367
Ah.
568
00:17:22,367 --> 00:17:25,233
[upbeat music playing]
569
00:17:27,567 --> 00:17:28,967
-[Mika] Hey, guys.
-[Jessica] Hey.
570
00:17:28,967 --> 00:17:30,066
[Mark] Hi, Mika.
It's good to see you.
571
00:17:30,066 --> 00:17:31,300
-[Mika] I come bearing gifts.
-You have a lot of stuff.
572
00:17:31,300 --> 00:17:32,200
-Here you go, Mark.
-Let me give you
a hand with that.
573
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:33,266
[Mika]
You take the heavy stuff
574
00:17:33,266 --> 00:17:35,200
and I will take
the light stuff.
575
00:17:35,200 --> 00:17:36,166
[laughs]
576
00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:38,166
All right.
I'm sure you guys are ready
577
00:17:38,166 --> 00:17:39,367
to move down to Florida
578
00:17:39,367 --> 00:17:41,000
and be in your
permanent residence.
579
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:42,033
Absolutely.
580
00:17:42,033 --> 00:17:43,367
[Mika] Right now, hanging out
at dad's house, right?
581
00:17:43,367 --> 00:17:44,767
Especially with you, Mark,
582
00:17:44,767 --> 00:17:46,767
traveling
back and forth to Alabama.
583
00:17:46,767 --> 00:17:49,166
It's like, when I can get you
here in person,
584
00:17:49,166 --> 00:17:51,266
I'd love to make
as many decisions as possible.
585
00:17:51,266 --> 00:17:53,667
I know you wanna
incorporate some stone.
586
00:17:53,667 --> 00:17:56,367
So have you decided
where inside the house
you would want it?
587
00:17:56,367 --> 00:17:58,667
[Jessica] I think it would be
really cool in the kitchen,
588
00:17:58,667 --> 00:18:00,667
like behind our stove,
589
00:18:00,667 --> 00:18:02,166
just, like,
giving it that, like,
590
00:18:02,166 --> 00:18:05,100
old world feel in that area.
591
00:18:05,100 --> 00:18:06,467
Let's take a look.
592
00:18:06,467 --> 00:18:09,300
I wanted to bring
some different color tones.
593
00:18:09,300 --> 00:18:12,166
And if you notice the shapes
are kind of different too.
594
00:18:12,166 --> 00:18:13,667
So this is
a manufactured stone,
595
00:18:13,667 --> 00:18:14,967
so it's actually concrete
596
00:18:14,967 --> 00:18:16,800
that is stamped
to resemble real stone.
597
00:18:16,800 --> 00:18:18,100
Even the little
textures in it,
598
00:18:18,100 --> 00:18:20,467
it looks exactly
like a real stone,
599
00:18:20,467 --> 00:18:21,467
like you would pick it up
from the ground.
600
00:18:21,467 --> 00:18:22,734
It looks really nice.
601
00:18:23,700 --> 00:18:25,066
What do you think, Jessica?
602
00:18:25,700 --> 00:18:27,000
[soft upbeat music playing]
603
00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,367
[Jessica] I mean,
I was kind of...
604
00:18:29,367 --> 00:18:34,667
Kind of like the authenticity
of real stone.
605
00:18:34,667 --> 00:18:36,367
[Mika] This is a lot
more affordable.
606
00:18:36,367 --> 00:18:39,066
So we're looking
at maybe $10 a square foot
607
00:18:39,066 --> 00:18:41,567
versus real stone
608
00:18:41,567 --> 00:18:44,166
could be up to 50 bucks
a square foot.
609
00:18:48,200 --> 00:18:49,200
[Jessica]
Kind of like the authenticity
610
00:18:49,200 --> 00:18:52,467
of real stone.
611
00:18:52,467 --> 00:18:53,734
[Mika] This manufactured stone
612
00:18:53,734 --> 00:18:55,166
is also a lot more affordable.
613
00:18:55,166 --> 00:18:57,767
So we're looking at maybe
$10 a square foot
614
00:18:57,767 --> 00:19:02,667
versus real stone could be
up to 50 bucks a square foot.
615
00:19:02,667 --> 00:19:03,867
This is a great compromise,
616
00:19:03,867 --> 00:19:05,400
but it still
gives you the look.
617
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:07,767
Let's not forget
we're trying to get it
in the house too.
618
00:19:07,767 --> 00:19:09,367
If you want it
in multiple areas,
619
00:19:09,367 --> 00:19:11,100
it's gonna be
quite a bit of material.
620
00:19:11,100 --> 00:19:12,767
For what we have
within our budget,
621
00:19:12,767 --> 00:19:14,000
I'm already sold on it.
622
00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:15,867
I think it's a great idea.
623
00:19:15,867 --> 00:19:17,066
[Jessica] True.
624
00:19:17,066 --> 00:19:19,600
It is better for our budget.
625
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,900
I guess...
I guess this could be okay.
626
00:19:23,367 --> 00:19:24,367
It's growing on me.
627
00:19:24,367 --> 00:19:25,767
All right.
628
00:19:25,767 --> 00:19:27,400
Now that we kind of have
the samples here,
629
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:28,734
what do you think?
630
00:19:28,734 --> 00:19:29,467
How do you feel?
631
00:19:29,467 --> 00:19:30,734
Stack stone is pretty,
but... Yeah.
632
00:19:30,734 --> 00:19:33,000
Yeah. It looks almost
too organized and tight.
633
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:33,900
I feel that one is much--
634
00:19:33,900 --> 00:19:36,367
I think we're looking more
for the craggily.
635
00:19:36,367 --> 00:19:37,567
-Craggily.
-[Jessica] Kind of
put together...
636
00:19:37,567 --> 00:19:38,934
Ooh. So craggily.
637
00:19:38,934 --> 00:19:40,100
[Mark] Even.
638
00:19:40,100 --> 00:19:41,066
[Mika] If it's between
these two,
639
00:19:41,066 --> 00:19:42,166
which one
do you guys like more?
640
00:19:42,166 --> 00:19:44,000
They are very different
in color.
641
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,266
Kind of like this one.
642
00:19:46,266 --> 00:19:47,300
[Mika] There's some uneven.
643
00:19:47,300 --> 00:19:48,567
There's some irregular.
644
00:19:48,567 --> 00:19:50,100
I really like
how those will fit together.
645
00:19:50,100 --> 00:19:51,266
I think that
that'll look really nice.
646
00:19:51,266 --> 00:19:52,066
[Jessica] I agree.
647
00:19:52,066 --> 00:19:53,166
I think this could work.
648
00:19:53,166 --> 00:19:54,767
[Mika] So we're liking this
for the outside
649
00:19:54,767 --> 00:19:56,266
and the inside of the house?
650
00:19:56,867 --> 00:19:58,767
-I think so.
-[softly] Yes.
651
00:19:58,767 --> 00:20:01,100
I also brought samples today
for your island.
652
00:20:01,100 --> 00:20:02,066
Ooh.
653
00:20:02,066 --> 00:20:03,066
I like red.
654
00:20:03,066 --> 00:20:04,567
I was leaning
more towards blue.
655
00:20:04,567 --> 00:20:06,300
I'm seeing
more blues than red.
656
00:20:06,300 --> 00:20:07,266
Why do you have
to notice that, Mark?
657
00:20:07,266 --> 00:20:08,100
[laughter]
658
00:20:08,100 --> 00:20:10,667
[Mika] So what are
your initial thoughts?
659
00:20:10,667 --> 00:20:12,834
We've always had red
in our kitchen,
660
00:20:12,834 --> 00:20:14,867
so I wanted
to stay with red.
661
00:20:14,867 --> 00:20:16,266
But this is our forever home.
662
00:20:16,266 --> 00:20:20,934
So we did have
a firm discussion.
663
00:20:20,934 --> 00:20:22,100
And maybe
it's time for change.
664
00:20:22,100 --> 00:20:25,500
-Ooh.
-[Jessica] So one of these.
665
00:20:25,500 --> 00:20:26,300
[Mika] All right.
666
00:20:26,300 --> 00:20:27,300
So let's put this
in the middle then,
667
00:20:27,300 --> 00:20:30,066
so we can kind of see
what we like better.
668
00:20:30,066 --> 00:20:31,500
This one's almost
like a navy blue.
669
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:32,500
[Jessica] Mmm-hmm.
670
00:20:32,500 --> 00:20:34,333
[Mika] Whereas this gives me
more of like
671
00:20:34,834 --> 00:20:36,066
a true blue color.
672
00:20:36,066 --> 00:20:37,300
I think
I like this one better.
673
00:20:37,300 --> 00:20:38,567
[Mark] This is really good.
674
00:20:38,567 --> 00:20:41,100
[Mika] Okay. I think
this looks great together.
675
00:20:41,100 --> 00:20:42,600
I'm making the orders today,
before you change your mind.
676
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,734
And you will be home
before you know it.
677
00:20:45,867 --> 00:20:48,767
[birds chirping]
678
00:20:48,767 --> 00:20:50,467
[Brian] Today, we are getting
out of concrete
679
00:20:50,467 --> 00:20:52,266
and moving into lumber.
680
00:20:52,266 --> 00:20:54,300
Trusses are done and we
actually decked out the roof.
681
00:20:54,300 --> 00:20:57,433
[rock music playing]
682
00:20:59,266 --> 00:21:01,000
[Brian] So Mark and Jessica
are doing this beautiful arch
683
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:02,033
in the entryway,
684
00:21:02,033 --> 00:21:05,266
which definitely adds
to that old European charm.
685
00:21:05,266 --> 00:21:07,667
Arches aren't
an easy process.
686
00:21:07,667 --> 00:21:09,867
We have to cut
two curved pieces of wood
687
00:21:09,867 --> 00:21:10,867
and then add smaller pieces
688
00:21:10,867 --> 00:21:12,333
to hold the shape together.
689
00:21:13,066 --> 00:21:14,266
But it's gonna be worth it.
690
00:21:16,934 --> 00:21:20,834
[upbeat music playing]
691
00:21:20,834 --> 00:21:22,400
-[Mika] Oh, my gosh.
-[Brian] What you
think, Mika?
692
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:23,567
[Mika] Wow.
693
00:21:23,567 --> 00:21:26,767
I'm kind of falling in love
with the arch entryway.
694
00:21:26,767 --> 00:21:29,567
We don't do that a lot,
but I really feel like
it defines it.
695
00:21:29,567 --> 00:21:31,166
It's giving me
some European vibes, for sure.
696
00:21:31,166 --> 00:21:32,266
Absolutely.
697
00:21:32,266 --> 00:21:33,467
And it's even
gonna look better
698
00:21:33,467 --> 00:21:35,100
once we get
the stone on it.
699
00:21:35,100 --> 00:21:36,867
[Mika] Can we talk about this
other entry to the house?
700
00:21:36,867 --> 00:21:38,767
Because, dang, this is, like,
701
00:21:38,767 --> 00:21:40,667
the biggest garage
I've ever seen.
702
00:21:40,667 --> 00:21:43,400
It's so much fun, too,
like the drive-through
aspect of it.
703
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:44,867
I think it's so practical.
704
00:21:44,867 --> 00:21:46,066
I mean, you literally
drive through here,
705
00:21:46,066 --> 00:21:48,567
drive all the way through,
706
00:21:48,567 --> 00:21:49,867
and keep it going
in a circle.
707
00:21:49,867 --> 00:21:51,567
[Mika] Kind of nice.
I like the flow.
708
00:21:51,567 --> 00:21:54,000
We have electricians,
plumbers working today,
709
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:56,066
but pretty soon,
we'll be drywalling.
710
00:21:56,066 --> 00:21:57,266
Guess what I got?
711
00:21:57,266 --> 00:21:59,166
85,000 choices
of paint colors.
712
00:21:59,166 --> 00:22:00,567
-Oh, boy.
-[Jessica] Hey, guys.
713
00:22:00,567 --> 00:22:02,867
-[Mika] Oh, hello, Jessica.
-Hey, Jessica.
714
00:22:02,867 --> 00:22:04,734
[Mika] Are you loving
the progress so far?
715
00:22:04,734 --> 00:22:05,734
I can't believe this.
716
00:22:06,266 --> 00:22:07,967
It's coming together so well.
717
00:22:07,967 --> 00:22:09,767
Like, I don't have words.
I don't even have words.
718
00:22:09,767 --> 00:22:10,867
-[Brian] Well, that's good.
-[Mika] That's good.
719
00:22:10,867 --> 00:22:12,266
That's a good thing.
I'm a little jealous
720
00:22:12,266 --> 00:22:14,567
because I, too, struggle
721
00:22:14,567 --> 00:22:16,467
when it comes
to backing out of a garage.
722
00:22:16,467 --> 00:22:18,934
And I would love to have
the drive-through option.
723
00:22:18,934 --> 00:22:20,300
[Jessica]
My husband's gonna love this.
724
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:21,934
[Brian] Your car is also
gonna love it, too.
725
00:22:21,934 --> 00:22:23,100
My insurance company
will as well.
726
00:22:23,100 --> 00:22:24,767
-And your insurance company.
-Exactly.
727
00:22:24,767 --> 00:22:26,467
This is, like
our halfway point.
728
00:22:26,467 --> 00:22:29,200
And everything starts moving
a lot quicker now
729
00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:30,400
that we have
all the walls up.
730
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,400
And it would move
even quicker
731
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:34,200
if you guys would finalize
your decision.
732
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,867
So, Mark's in Alabama.
733
00:22:35,867 --> 00:22:38,166
[Jessica] I've been given
executive authority
734
00:22:38,166 --> 00:22:40,200
-to make these decisions.
-[Brian] I love that.
735
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:43,867
So, I, um, I hope
that I'm representing well.
736
00:22:43,867 --> 00:22:45,400
We've got the stone
picked out.
737
00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,000
So now, we're gonna
use this to anchor,
738
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:50,100
picking out exterior colors,
'cause I feel like
739
00:22:50,100 --> 00:22:51,467
that's super important
740
00:22:51,467 --> 00:22:53,867
to kinda make sure
it works together, right?
741
00:22:53,867 --> 00:22:55,133
Um...
742
00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:57,233
so on that...
743
00:22:58,500 --> 00:23:01,567
We had a chance to think
about it a little bit.
744
00:23:01,567 --> 00:23:03,533
We just want
the real stuff.
745
00:23:04,066 --> 00:23:05,133
[Brian] Yikes.
746
00:23:08,100 --> 00:23:09,767
[Jessica] We had a chance
747
00:23:09,767 --> 00:23:11,567
to think about it
a little bit.
748
00:23:11,567 --> 00:23:13,500
And we really want
749
00:23:13,500 --> 00:23:17,066
the authenticity
of real stone.
750
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,100
To us, it makes it
more realistic
751
00:23:20,100 --> 00:23:23,300
for, you know, the times
that we've spent overseas.
752
00:23:23,300 --> 00:23:25,667
Kind of, really,
we wanna hold on to that.
753
00:23:26,266 --> 00:23:28,467
We just want the real stuff.
754
00:23:28,467 --> 00:23:31,367
I've seen a lot of homes
that have the cultured stone.
755
00:23:31,367 --> 00:23:33,166
It's beautiful.
We didn't even realize
756
00:23:33,166 --> 00:23:37,033
that it was not real stone
until it was explained to us.
757
00:23:37,033 --> 00:23:41,567
But, like, just having that
like, no, deep down,
758
00:23:41,567 --> 00:23:45,300
really made it like, "Ah, no,
I want that real.
759
00:23:45,300 --> 00:23:46,500
I want that real look."
760
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:49,567
Is that something
that we could maybe do?
761
00:23:49,567 --> 00:23:53,400
I will say real stone
is real expensive.
762
00:23:53,400 --> 00:23:55,166
-Mmm.
-I know.
763
00:23:55,166 --> 00:23:56,934
[Mika] 'Cause we're talking
about three areas.
764
00:23:56,934 --> 00:23:58,734
[Brian] Garage accent,
front entryway,
765
00:23:58,734 --> 00:23:59,767
and then the kitchen.
766
00:23:59,767 --> 00:24:01,200
If we did real stone,
767
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:02,667
it's probably $10,000 more.
768
00:24:02,667 --> 00:24:04,066
Over budget.
769
00:24:04,066 --> 00:24:05,367
[Brian] It's heavier.
770
00:24:05,367 --> 00:24:07,100
The install is harder.
771
00:24:07,100 --> 00:24:08,600
I mean,
there's a lot of factors
772
00:24:08,600 --> 00:24:11,367
that make real stone much more
expensive than "faux" stone.
773
00:24:11,367 --> 00:24:13,567
I mean, it's almost like
a cubic zirconia
774
00:24:13,567 --> 00:24:15,934
versus a diamond ring.
775
00:24:15,934 --> 00:24:16,834
-Do you know...
-I feel like they--
776
00:24:16,834 --> 00:24:18,000
Do you know
which one I got you?
777
00:24:18,767 --> 00:24:19,667
She'll never know.
778
00:24:19,667 --> 00:24:20,767
Oh, I'm about to find out
779
00:24:20,767 --> 00:24:22,967
after we get done today,
I know that.
780
00:24:22,967 --> 00:24:24,567
If we went with real stone,
781
00:24:24,567 --> 00:24:25,967
with the budget
that we have,
782
00:24:25,967 --> 00:24:28,300
we could probably do it
in two places,
783
00:24:28,300 --> 00:24:29,667
but definitely
not all three.
784
00:24:29,667 --> 00:24:31,867
So what if we cut out
the kitchen?
785
00:24:31,867 --> 00:24:33,667
It would probably be
more important
786
00:24:33,667 --> 00:24:35,467
to try to have it
on the outside of the house.
787
00:24:35,467 --> 00:24:37,367
Okay. You wanna
talk it over with Mark?
788
00:24:37,367 --> 00:24:39,367
-Nah.
-You're the one here,
789
00:24:39,367 --> 00:24:40,600
so you're the one
that makes the decisions.
790
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,200
[Jessica] I know that
Mark will feel the same way.
791
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,667
We wanted the inside,
and now we're taking it away.
792
00:24:44,667 --> 00:24:47,200
But, it's what's gonna
have to happen
793
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:48,867
in order for us
to have the real stone.
794
00:24:48,867 --> 00:24:50,266
[Brian]
We're gonna make it happen.
795
00:24:50,266 --> 00:24:52,734
We've got to cancel this order
as soon as possible.
796
00:24:52,734 --> 00:24:56,033
And then I need the choices
on the real stone very soon.
797
00:24:56,033 --> 00:24:57,100
We've got to move quick
on this.
798
00:24:57,100 --> 00:24:58,266
We'll be meeting
pretty soon
799
00:24:58,266 --> 00:25:00,467
to rock and roll.
800
00:25:00,467 --> 00:25:01,667
[Brian] Real rock and roll.
801
00:25:01,667 --> 00:25:02,934
[Mika]
Real rock and roll, not--
802
00:25:02,934 --> 00:25:03,934
Not that fake rock and roll.
803
00:25:03,934 --> 00:25:04,834
Not that
wannabe rock and roll,
804
00:25:04,834 --> 00:25:05,934
you know what I'm saying?
805
00:25:06,667 --> 00:25:08,767
As far as exterior colors,
though,
806
00:25:08,767 --> 00:25:10,600
I think we've got to get
the actual stone
807
00:25:10,600 --> 00:25:11,967
that we're gonna put
on the house
808
00:25:11,967 --> 00:25:13,100
so we can see
the true colors.
809
00:25:13,100 --> 00:25:14,967
-Okay.
-And then pick paint colors.
810
00:25:14,967 --> 00:25:15,834
Here's the deal.
811
00:25:15,834 --> 00:25:17,400
If you get
your authentic stone,
812
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:18,767
we want an authentic surprise.
813
00:25:18,767 --> 00:25:19,567
[Mika] Mmm-hmm.
814
00:25:19,567 --> 00:25:21,467
So, no more peeking
around the house.
815
00:25:21,467 --> 00:25:22,467
-[Mika] That's the deal.
-[Brian] Deal?
816
00:25:22,467 --> 00:25:23,567
-[Mika laughs]
-Fine.
817
00:25:23,567 --> 00:25:24,567
-That's the compromise.
-Fine.
818
00:25:24,567 --> 00:25:26,000
Take your last look now,
819
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:27,266
or forever hold your peek.
820
00:25:27,266 --> 00:25:29,166
-Okay.
-[Mika laughs]
821
00:25:29,166 --> 00:25:30,200
-No more changes.
-Not thinking twice.
822
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:31,367
I'm going. I'm going.
823
00:25:31,367 --> 00:25:33,000
-[Mika] Right.
-I'm going.
824
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:34,867
-Speaking of changes...
-Yeah.
825
00:25:34,867 --> 00:25:37,767
I hate when a homeowner
826
00:25:37,767 --> 00:25:39,367
has to compromise something
they really want.
827
00:25:39,367 --> 00:25:41,200
Like, I've been trying
to think of special projects
828
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:42,967
every single time
I'm here working,
829
00:25:42,967 --> 00:25:44,734
and maybe that's what we do.
830
00:25:44,734 --> 00:25:46,667
Maybe we surprise them
with that stone
831
00:25:46,667 --> 00:25:48,100
in the kitchen.
832
00:25:48,100 --> 00:25:49,300
They will be blown away
833
00:25:49,300 --> 00:25:50,634
when they walk through
that front door.
834
00:25:52,166 --> 00:25:53,567
I'm not opposed to that.
835
00:25:53,567 --> 00:25:56,033
I think we have to figure out
how to make it work.
836
00:25:56,033 --> 00:25:57,500
-[Mika] All right. Well--
-Shh. Don't.
837
00:25:57,500 --> 00:25:58,800
She's right there.
838
00:26:01,166 --> 00:26:02,300
-We're good.
-You're not a good whisperer.
839
00:26:02,300 --> 00:26:03,266
[Brian] Let's do it.
840
00:26:03,266 --> 00:26:04,767
Your whisper
is like a normal talk.
841
00:26:04,767 --> 00:26:05,734
I know. Sorry.
842
00:26:06,367 --> 00:26:07,467
Well?
843
00:26:07,467 --> 00:26:08,400
-Yes, no.
-Sorry.
844
00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:09,767
-I like the idea. Okay.
-We'll do it.
845
00:26:09,767 --> 00:26:11,467
We didn't make
the decisions today
846
00:26:11,467 --> 00:26:13,967
that I anticipated as far
as exterior paint colors,
847
00:26:13,967 --> 00:26:15,600
but we did make a decision
on a special project.
848
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:17,166
So, I mean, we broke even.
849
00:26:17,166 --> 00:26:18,667
There we go.
I like that math.
850
00:26:18,667 --> 00:26:19,734
Mmm-hmm.
851
00:26:21,467 --> 00:26:23,166
[birds chirping]
852
00:26:23,166 --> 00:26:26,266
[instrumental music playing]
853
00:26:26,767 --> 00:26:28,033
[Mika] Gosh. Okay.
854
00:26:28,033 --> 00:26:30,100
So I do see why they gravitate
855
00:26:30,100 --> 00:26:31,300
towards the natural stone.
856
00:26:31,300 --> 00:26:33,066
I mean, this is beautiful.
857
00:26:33,066 --> 00:26:35,834
Today is our second attempt
at selecting the stone
858
00:26:35,834 --> 00:26:37,300
for Mark and Jessica's house,
and I'm hoping
859
00:26:37,300 --> 00:26:38,667
that we can make a decision.
860
00:26:38,667 --> 00:26:40,834
-Hello, hello.
-Hey!
861
00:26:40,834 --> 00:26:42,734
Hold on a second.
Where is Mark?
862
00:26:44,100 --> 00:26:46,734
So, he had to go...
863
00:26:47,567 --> 00:26:48,967
do army stuff.
864
00:26:48,967 --> 00:26:50,600
Is that him flying overhead
right now?
865
00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:52,867
Because otherwise,
I really wanted him
866
00:26:52,867 --> 00:26:54,834
here today,
'cause this is a big deal.
867
00:26:54,834 --> 00:26:56,734
I know.
He really wanted to be here.
868
00:26:56,734 --> 00:26:58,500
-Yikes. So, Olivia...
-Here we are.
869
00:26:58,500 --> 00:26:59,767
...are you stepping in?
870
00:26:59,767 --> 00:27:01,066
Are you gonna channel
your dad's vibes
871
00:27:01,066 --> 00:27:02,734
so we can pick out
the right stone?
872
00:27:02,734 --> 00:27:04,600
[Jessica] She's gonna be
my sounding board today.
873
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:05,834
[Mika] All right.
874
00:27:05,834 --> 00:27:07,066
And I do feel like these have
875
00:27:07,066 --> 00:27:08,667
a lot of irregularity.
876
00:27:08,667 --> 00:27:10,367
And we're just looking
at one sample.
877
00:27:10,367 --> 00:27:12,467
But when we put it
over a bigger space,
878
00:27:12,467 --> 00:27:13,934
it might even have
a little bit more
879
00:27:13,934 --> 00:27:15,033
than what we're seeing today.
880
00:27:15,033 --> 00:27:16,934
I'm excited
for that variation.
881
00:27:16,934 --> 00:27:17,867
That's natural.
882
00:27:17,867 --> 00:27:19,467
That's a natural occurrence.
883
00:27:19,467 --> 00:27:21,266
[Mika] This is gonna feel
more authentic for you guys.
884
00:27:21,266 --> 00:27:22,467
-So, I get it.
-[Olivia] Yes.
885
00:27:22,467 --> 00:27:23,567
[Mika] But as you can see,
886
00:27:23,567 --> 00:27:24,734
there's still
a lot of choice.
887
00:27:24,734 --> 00:27:27,567
[Jessica] These are a lot
closer to, you know,
888
00:27:27,567 --> 00:27:28,834
what we experienced
889
00:27:28,834 --> 00:27:30,100
when we were living abroad
in Europe.
890
00:27:30,100 --> 00:27:31,734
I kind of like
all the different
891
00:27:31,734 --> 00:27:33,767
-pretty gray colors.
-[Mika] Okay.
892
00:27:33,767 --> 00:27:36,200
[Jessica] I like
the dimensional one here.
893
00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,166
I really like
that manor one over there.
894
00:27:38,166 --> 00:27:39,467
-[Mika] This one?
-[Jessica] Yeah.
895
00:27:39,467 --> 00:27:42,834
Um, maybe.
896
00:27:42,834 --> 00:27:45,667
[sighs] I don't know.
I'm really...
897
00:27:45,667 --> 00:27:47,400
Now that I'm seeing them
in person,
898
00:27:47,400 --> 00:27:48,667
I'm starting to get
a little nervous
899
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:50,100
about making this decision
900
00:27:50,100 --> 00:27:51,600
-without him.
-[Olivia] Yeah.
901
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,200
[Mika] I think
we'll all feel better
902
00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,367
if he has, like, two minutes
903
00:27:54,367 --> 00:27:56,600
to just quick jump
on a video call
904
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,767
so we can kinda show him,
like, our top contenders,
905
00:27:58,767 --> 00:28:00,266
and then let him
have a vote on that.
906
00:28:00,667 --> 00:28:01,767
You good with that?
907
00:28:01,767 --> 00:28:03,367
All right,
I hope he's available.
908
00:28:03,367 --> 00:28:04,567
Mark, this is your chance.
909
00:28:04,567 --> 00:28:05,867
You can't say
we didn't try, buddy.
910
00:28:05,867 --> 00:28:07,100
You can't say we didn't try.
911
00:28:07,100 --> 00:28:09,767
-[line ringing]
-Mark, don't
let us down, buddy.
912
00:28:09,767 --> 00:28:10,734
[Mark] Hello?
913
00:28:10,734 --> 00:28:11,967
Hey.
914
00:28:11,967 --> 00:28:14,367
-Hey.
-[Mika] Hey, there you are.
915
00:28:14,367 --> 00:28:16,467
-Oh, you're kinda grainy.
-[Mark] What's up? Yeah.
916
00:28:16,467 --> 00:28:18,867
You might hear some planes
and helicopters and stuff.
917
00:28:18,867 --> 00:28:22,033
So we're here with Mika
looking at the stone.
918
00:28:22,033 --> 00:28:24,667
I was hoping
maybe you could help me.
919
00:28:24,667 --> 00:28:25,734
Yeah, definitely.
920
00:28:25,734 --> 00:28:28,867
[Jessica] So, I like
this dimensional one.
921
00:28:28,867 --> 00:28:30,767
It's got, like, long pieces.
922
00:28:30,767 --> 00:28:32,100
And then this one over here,
923
00:28:32,100 --> 00:28:33,734
it's a little bit
more craggily.
924
00:28:33,734 --> 00:28:35,066
[Mark] Yeah.
I like that pattern.
925
00:28:35,066 --> 00:28:36,066
I like how it was a little...
926
00:28:36,066 --> 00:28:37,734
a little bigger stone.
927
00:28:37,734 --> 00:28:38,967
Can you put
your finger on it,
928
00:28:38,967 --> 00:28:40,767
so I can see how deep
the little crevices are?
929
00:28:40,767 --> 00:28:42,033
So they're, like, finger-deep.
930
00:28:42,033 --> 00:28:43,600
-[Mark] Yup.
-At least half inch.
931
00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,767
Yeah. Okay. I can see it.
That one looks really good.
932
00:28:45,767 --> 00:28:46,967
-[Jessica] Thanks, love.
-All right.
933
00:28:46,967 --> 00:28:47,867
See you later, Mark.
934
00:28:47,867 --> 00:28:48,967
-[Jessica] Love you.
-[Mark] Okay.
935
00:28:48,967 --> 00:28:50,266
-Love you.
-[Jessica] Bye.
936
00:28:50,266 --> 00:28:52,834
Okay. So, Fond du Lac Manor,
937
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:54,400
we got that.
938
00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:55,200
[Olivia] So pretty.
939
00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:55,934
This is beautiful.
940
00:28:55,934 --> 00:28:57,600
I feel like
just like walking down
941
00:28:57,600 --> 00:28:59,166
the streets of Tuscany
and just, like...
942
00:28:59,166 --> 00:29:01,734
It just has
a very aged feel to it.
943
00:29:01,734 --> 00:29:04,000
Around that entryway,
this is gonna really pop.
944
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:07,567
Are you thinking for the main
body color of the house?
945
00:29:07,567 --> 00:29:09,734
Do you want something
darker or lighter?
946
00:29:09,734 --> 00:29:11,166
I love, like, a light gray.
947
00:29:11,166 --> 00:29:12,867
I think that
would be really pretty.
948
00:29:12,867 --> 00:29:15,667
[Mika] Okay. So then,
if we do something like this,
949
00:29:15,667 --> 00:29:18,400
do we wanna do a pop of color
on the door, maybe?
950
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,934
Yes. I kinda wanna do
a blue door.
951
00:29:21,934 --> 00:29:23,867
-All right.
-Like a sapphirey blue.
952
00:29:23,867 --> 00:29:25,500
[Mika] I think
any of these top three
953
00:29:25,500 --> 00:29:27,567
are really kind of, like,
showstoppers
954
00:29:27,567 --> 00:29:29,467
as far as being
a richer tone of blue.
955
00:29:29,467 --> 00:29:31,367
[Jessica] Yeah,
I'm drawn to the dress blues.
956
00:29:31,367 --> 00:29:33,400
-[Mika] The one on the top?
-[Jessica] Yeah. Just... Yeah.
957
00:29:33,400 --> 00:29:35,600
Reminds me
of Mark's military uniform.
958
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:36,967
[Mika] Oh, see now.
You're like me.
959
00:29:36,967 --> 00:29:38,367
I look at the name
of the paint color
960
00:29:38,367 --> 00:29:40,000
and I'm like,
"That's kinda cute."
961
00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:41,767
Maybe the garage
doors, too, kinda...
962
00:29:41,767 --> 00:29:43,166
-[Jessica] Yeah.
-...sprinkle it in.
963
00:29:43,166 --> 00:29:45,000
-[Jessica] That would be
really nice.
-[Olivia] Yeah.
964
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:45,867
Okay. I love it.
965
00:29:45,867 --> 00:29:46,834
Feeling pretty good
about this.
966
00:29:46,834 --> 00:29:48,033
I think it's gonna be great.
967
00:29:48,033 --> 00:29:49,467
We picked our exterior
paint colors
968
00:29:49,467 --> 00:29:51,266
and I really hope
969
00:29:51,266 --> 00:29:53,600
that Mark and Jessica
love the stone that
970
00:29:53,600 --> 00:29:54,867
they picked for the outside
of their house,
971
00:29:54,867 --> 00:29:56,834
'cause surprise, surprise,
972
00:29:56,834 --> 00:29:58,567
you're gonna see it
on the inside, too.
973
00:30:01,867 --> 00:30:05,000
[upbeat music playing]
974
00:30:10,867 --> 00:30:12,166
[Walt] Oh, what now?
975
00:30:14,033 --> 00:30:15,166
What?
976
00:30:17,567 --> 00:30:19,533
You know something
that I don't know?
977
00:30:21,667 --> 00:30:23,467
I don't like that look.
978
00:30:23,467 --> 00:30:24,734
I don't like this look,
either,
979
00:30:24,734 --> 00:30:26,200
but Mark and Jessica...
980
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:27,767
-Yeah.
-...just gave me
a change order.
981
00:30:27,767 --> 00:30:28,634
Yeah.
982
00:30:32,166 --> 00:30:34,000
[Mark] I don't like that look.
983
00:30:34,000 --> 00:30:35,166
I don't like this look,
either,
984
00:30:35,166 --> 00:30:37,233
-but Mark and Jessica...
-Yeah.
985
00:30:37,233 --> 00:30:39,467
-...just gave me
a change order.
-Yeah.
986
00:30:39,467 --> 00:30:41,166
Hi, Brian and Mika.
987
00:30:41,166 --> 00:30:44,567
Jessica and I were talking,
and we had one request.
988
00:30:44,567 --> 00:30:47,133
[Jessica]
In the kitchen pantry space,
989
00:30:47,133 --> 00:30:48,867
we were wondering
if there's a way to put
990
00:30:48,867 --> 00:30:50,967
some sort of pass through
between the two.
991
00:30:50,967 --> 00:30:53,166
[Mark] Yeah. Just take out
a little piece of the wall
992
00:30:53,166 --> 00:30:55,400
so that we can join
those two spaces
993
00:30:55,400 --> 00:30:57,567
for some quick access.
994
00:30:57,567 --> 00:30:59,667
So Jessica actually mills
her own wheat.
995
00:30:59,667 --> 00:31:01,166
And she wants to be able
to pass it
996
00:31:01,166 --> 00:31:02,367
right through the kitchen.
997
00:31:02,367 --> 00:31:04,367
So, I mean, I...
I've never done it before.
998
00:31:04,367 --> 00:31:05,467
Have you ever seen that
in a house?
999
00:31:05,467 --> 00:31:07,100
No, I have not. You know...
1000
00:31:07,100 --> 00:31:08,567
You know,
we don't have many options,
1001
00:31:08,567 --> 00:31:10,166
'cause there's stone
on this whole wall.
1002
00:31:10,166 --> 00:31:12,533
The only option we got is,
like, right here.
1003
00:31:14,133 --> 00:31:15,767
Let's open up some of it,
1004
00:31:15,767 --> 00:31:17,200
and then we'll know
what to do.
1005
00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,000
So, what do you see?
1006
00:31:28,767 --> 00:31:30,133
Is there any wire there?
1007
00:31:30,467 --> 00:31:32,166
Yes.
1008
00:31:32,166 --> 00:31:34,166
-It's going this way, though.
-[Walt laughs]
1009
00:31:34,166 --> 00:31:35,266
-We're good.
-[Walt] All right.
1010
00:31:35,266 --> 00:31:37,467
Now you can keep
going across.
1011
00:31:37,467 --> 00:31:40,266
[Brian] I always feel terrible
when we have to do demo
1012
00:31:40,266 --> 00:31:41,967
on a new construction house.
1013
00:31:41,967 --> 00:31:43,133
[Walt]
Now you're getting fancy.
1014
00:31:43,133 --> 00:31:43,967
[Brian] There we go.
1015
00:31:43,967 --> 00:31:45,400
But technically,
1016
00:31:45,400 --> 00:31:46,667
this time is not my fault,
1017
00:31:46,667 --> 00:31:47,734
for the record.
1018
00:31:52,266 --> 00:31:53,467
Hi.
1019
00:31:53,467 --> 00:31:54,734
[Walt laughs]
1020
00:31:54,734 --> 00:31:55,900
Order up.
1021
00:31:56,667 --> 00:31:58,667
-Change order up.
-Yeah.
1022
00:31:58,667 --> 00:31:59,767
Change order up.
1023
00:31:59,767 --> 00:32:00,834
You're right.
1024
00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:06,734
[upbeat music playing]
1025
00:32:12,367 --> 00:32:13,467
[Brian]
It's gonna be a busy day.
1026
00:32:13,467 --> 00:32:15,567
We have garage doors
being installed.
1027
00:32:15,567 --> 00:32:17,367
We are so close
to the finish line,
1028
00:32:17,367 --> 00:32:19,600
but still have so much
work to get done.
1029
00:32:19,600 --> 00:32:21,000
All right.
1030
00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,467
Hey, are we...
are we back on track?
1031
00:32:22,467 --> 00:32:24,367
-[Walt] We're back on track.
-Okay, good.
1032
00:32:24,367 --> 00:32:25,567
[Brian]
But we're extra motivated
1033
00:32:25,567 --> 00:32:27,967
to get this family
under one roof.
1034
00:32:27,967 --> 00:32:30,367
'Cause right now, they're in
Alabama and Florida.
1035
00:32:32,567 --> 00:32:34,166
Oh, this is gonna be so good.
1036
00:32:34,166 --> 00:32:36,600
Now Jessica
can pull right in,
1037
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,367
drive straight through
1038
00:32:38,367 --> 00:32:39,567
and never have
to back up again.
1039
00:32:39,567 --> 00:32:42,000
We also have stone
being installed
1040
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:43,500
in three different spaces.
1041
00:32:43,500 --> 00:32:46,066
This stone is gonna look
so good at the entryway.
1042
00:32:46,066 --> 00:32:47,600
Now, Jessica and Mark,
they know about this.
1043
00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:49,133
They do not know
about the special project
1044
00:32:49,133 --> 00:32:50,667
we're doing in the kitchen.
1045
00:32:51,033 --> 00:32:52,300
Whoo!
1046
00:32:52,300 --> 00:32:55,166
This real stone is not light,
my friends.
1047
00:32:55,166 --> 00:32:56,467
-It looks good, though.
-[Walt] That's true.
1048
00:32:56,467 --> 00:32:57,867
[Jesse]
It's a dolomitic limestone.
1049
00:32:57,867 --> 00:33:00,166
Quarry is in Fond du Lac,
Wisconsin,
1050
00:33:00,166 --> 00:33:01,467
a couple
hundred million years old.
1051
00:33:01,467 --> 00:33:02,367
Wow.
1052
00:33:02,367 --> 00:33:03,567
[Jesse] But the color
is true on it.
1053
00:33:03,567 --> 00:33:05,467
If somebody chips
a piece off,
1054
00:33:05,467 --> 00:33:07,500
still that natural piece
of natural color.
1055
00:33:07,500 --> 00:33:09,233
Wisconsin. That's interesting.
1056
00:33:09,233 --> 00:33:12,266
I would've figured
it came from Estonia.
1057
00:33:12,266 --> 00:33:14,734
-No.
-Back to work.
Back to work.
1058
00:33:14,734 --> 00:33:17,066
[machine whirring]
1059
00:33:17,066 --> 00:33:19,567
[Brian] I think this piece
will go perfectly right here.
1060
00:33:19,567 --> 00:33:21,567
[Walt] Yeah. Maybe just cut
that little piece off.
1061
00:33:21,567 --> 00:33:23,266
[Brian] So this like
is a whole lot more work
1062
00:33:23,266 --> 00:33:25,266
than a traditional
tile backsplash
1063
00:33:25,266 --> 00:33:26,367
that's really light
1064
00:33:26,367 --> 00:33:28,100
and you can lay 'em
super quick.
1065
00:33:28,100 --> 00:33:29,233
I got one here.
I don't think...
1066
00:33:29,233 --> 00:33:30,266
-No.
-This is probably too small.
1067
00:33:30,266 --> 00:33:31,400
It's a little too small.
1068
00:33:31,400 --> 00:33:33,967
[Brian] Each one of these
is over 14 pounds.
1069
00:33:33,967 --> 00:33:36,066
They're all uniquely-shaped
1070
00:33:36,066 --> 00:33:39,000
and they take forever
to place and set.
1071
00:33:39,000 --> 00:33:40,767
-[Walt] Now you're cooking.
-[Brian] Yeah.
1072
00:33:40,767 --> 00:33:42,834
[Walt] I like a lot of butter
on my bread.
1073
00:33:42,834 --> 00:33:44,300
There you go, my friend.
1074
00:33:44,300 --> 00:33:45,867
We have a long day
ahead of us,
1075
00:33:45,867 --> 00:33:46,967
but it's gonna be
well worth it.
1076
00:33:46,967 --> 00:33:48,166
It's unique.
1077
00:33:48,166 --> 00:33:48,967
It's one-of-a-kind.
1078
00:33:48,967 --> 00:33:51,033
No one else is gonna have
this stone
1079
00:33:51,033 --> 00:33:53,367
or this pattern anywhere
in the world.
1080
00:33:53,367 --> 00:33:54,467
The pass through.
1081
00:33:54,467 --> 00:33:56,266
Hey, I was questioning
the idea at first,
1082
00:33:56,266 --> 00:33:59,000
but now that the stone
wraps around the corners,
1083
00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,066
-it does look good.
-[Walt] It really does.
1084
00:34:01,066 --> 00:34:03,166
Mark and Jessica
are gonna be blown away
1085
00:34:03,166 --> 00:34:04,467
when they walk
into their dream home
1086
00:34:04,467 --> 00:34:06,500
and see this wall of stone.
1087
00:34:06,500 --> 00:34:08,000
It's really gonna remind them
1088
00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:09,500
of all their travels
throughout the years.
1089
00:34:09,500 --> 00:34:11,867
I think this special
project really rocks.
1090
00:34:11,867 --> 00:34:12,967
[Walt] Brian...
1091
00:34:12,967 --> 00:34:14,066
[Walt chuckles]
1092
00:34:14,667 --> 00:34:16,500
[birds chirping]
1093
00:34:16,500 --> 00:34:19,634
[upbeat music playing]
1094
00:34:25,066 --> 00:34:25,967
[Brian] Hey, Mik.
1095
00:34:25,967 --> 00:34:26,767
[Mika] Hey, there.
1096
00:34:26,767 --> 00:34:28,033
[Brian] I got
some artifacts for you.
1097
00:34:28,033 --> 00:34:29,367
[Mika] Oh.
1098
00:34:29,367 --> 00:34:30,667
Mark and Jessica gave us
1099
00:34:30,667 --> 00:34:32,600
some of those
sentimental pieces
1100
00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:33,567
that they've collected
1101
00:34:33,567 --> 00:34:34,667
over the years
through travel.
1102
00:34:34,667 --> 00:34:35,667
Hey, look at this.
1103
00:34:35,667 --> 00:34:37,467
[Mika gasps]
That is awesome.
1104
00:34:37,467 --> 00:34:38,934
-I love it.
-[Brian] It was
from Germany.
1105
00:34:38,934 --> 00:34:40,867
We're basically taking
everything they've collected
1106
00:34:40,867 --> 00:34:42,867
and put 'em together
in one brand-new dream home.
1107
00:34:42,867 --> 00:34:43,734
Mmm-hmm.
1108
00:34:43,734 --> 00:34:45,066
Coming down. Coming down.
1109
00:34:45,066 --> 00:34:46,100
It's got little brackets,
1110
00:34:46,100 --> 00:34:47,900
so I think that kind locks it
here in place.
1111
00:34:49,500 --> 00:34:50,934
Check it out.
1112
00:34:50,934 --> 00:34:51,867
[Brian] All right.
1113
00:34:51,867 --> 00:34:52,667
[Mika] Look at that.
1114
00:34:52,667 --> 00:34:53,934
Let's put
the glass insert in.
1115
00:34:54,266 --> 00:34:56,066
That is so cool.
1116
00:34:56,066 --> 00:34:57,734
[Brian] Yeah,
it really is nice.
1117
00:34:57,734 --> 00:34:58,734
[Mika] This is unique.
1118
00:34:58,734 --> 00:35:00,066
I mean,
you can't find this anywhere.
1119
00:35:00,066 --> 00:35:01,467
All right. So let's see here.
1120
00:35:01,467 --> 00:35:03,567
Oh, man, we got a lot of space
to fill out here.
1121
00:35:03,567 --> 00:35:04,533
Yup.
1122
00:35:04,533 --> 00:35:06,600
[Mika] This is definitely,
like, old world vibe.
1123
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:07,734
I don't really think
1124
00:35:07,734 --> 00:35:09,000
it's going
with the coastal vibes
1125
00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:10,767
that these benches
are providing right now.
1126
00:35:10,767 --> 00:35:12,467
I think we need to put this
1127
00:35:12,467 --> 00:35:14,467
-inside somewhere.
-You serious?
1128
00:35:14,467 --> 00:35:16,767
[Mika] Mark and Jessica
like European charm,
1129
00:35:16,767 --> 00:35:18,500
old world,
but then they like modern.
1130
00:35:18,500 --> 00:35:21,100
So, there's a lot
of different elements
1131
00:35:21,100 --> 00:35:23,467
that this house has
that makes it super unique,
1132
00:35:23,467 --> 00:35:25,567
and that's why you build
from the ground up.
1133
00:35:25,567 --> 00:35:26,767
Final move, I promise.
1134
00:35:26,767 --> 00:35:28,767
Just like it's Mark
and Jessica's final move...
1135
00:35:28,767 --> 00:35:30,367
it's this table's final move.
1136
00:35:30,367 --> 00:35:32,033
[Brian] Let me
roll it in place here.
1137
00:35:32,033 --> 00:35:34,166
[Mika] It totally goes.
1138
00:35:34,166 --> 00:35:35,166
-I like that...
-I like it.
1139
00:35:35,166 --> 00:35:36,667
-...much better.
-Yeah.
1140
00:35:36,667 --> 00:35:38,367
[Mika] Olivia is, like,
the artsy kid
1141
00:35:38,367 --> 00:35:41,600
that is not afraid
for some color pop.
1142
00:35:41,600 --> 00:35:44,367
And the color of this room
kinda matches her hair color.
1143
00:35:44,367 --> 00:35:46,266
-[Brian] It really does.
-[Mika] It's fun.
1144
00:35:46,266 --> 00:35:49,600
[Brian] I love how both
of the daughters' rooms
1145
00:35:49,600 --> 00:35:50,934
really highlight
their character.
1146
00:35:50,934 --> 00:35:53,066
Ava is in love with Japan,
as you can see.
1147
00:35:53,066 --> 00:35:55,867
She's got the cool art pieces,
family photos.
1148
00:35:55,867 --> 00:35:57,867
You want a space
you can grow into
1149
00:35:57,867 --> 00:35:59,467
and add onto.
1150
00:35:59,467 --> 00:36:01,734
And now, Olivia and Ava
are gonna have that.
1151
00:36:01,734 --> 00:36:03,400
And we've got
over 3,000 square feet.
1152
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,000
So, it's gonna be
a late night,
1153
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,467
-but it's gonna
be worth it.
-[Brian] Yeah.
1154
00:36:06,467 --> 00:36:07,667
Don't get too comfortable,
1155
00:36:07,667 --> 00:36:09,600
'cause there's still
a lot of work to do.
1156
00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:10,834
-Come on.
-I know.
1157
00:36:11,266 --> 00:36:12,233
[Mika] Help me unload.
1158
00:36:12,233 --> 00:36:13,600
All right. I'm comin'.
1159
00:36:13,600 --> 00:36:15,166
[Mika] I do feel like
it's gonna incorporate
1160
00:36:15,166 --> 00:36:16,867
all of the previous chapters
in their life,
1161
00:36:16,867 --> 00:36:18,367
but it's also
giving them room
1162
00:36:18,367 --> 00:36:20,467
to grow and write more.
1163
00:36:20,467 --> 00:36:22,266
Storybook ending,
welcome home.
1164
00:36:22,266 --> 00:36:23,567
[Brian] That's tomorrow.
1165
00:36:23,567 --> 00:36:24,667
[Mika] Not yet. Tomorrow.
1166
00:36:24,667 --> 00:36:26,166
-Is that Mark?
-What?
1167
00:36:26,166 --> 00:36:27,467
-[man] Hey, Mark.
-Oh, I thought you were...
1168
00:36:27,467 --> 00:36:28,867
-Mark.
-...gonna do a flyover,
1169
00:36:28,867 --> 00:36:30,467
-but we're not ready.
-Mark, we're not ready yet.
1170
00:36:30,467 --> 00:36:32,066
Literally,
give us 24 more hours.
1171
00:36:32,066 --> 00:36:33,567
Hold on!
That's Mark coming to town.
1172
00:36:33,567 --> 00:36:35,166
[Mika] Oh, my gosh.
1173
00:36:40,266 --> 00:36:43,133
[dramatic music playing]
1174
00:36:43,133 --> 00:36:45,033
[Mika] This is where
the journey started
1175
00:36:45,033 --> 00:36:46,567
and here's where it's ending,
1176
00:36:46,567 --> 00:36:48,000
right back here in Florida.
1177
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:51,767
I really feel privileged
to be a part of this,
1178
00:36:51,767 --> 00:36:53,467
especially
because Mark and Jessica
1179
00:36:53,467 --> 00:36:54,867
live in that
military lifestyle
1180
00:36:54,867 --> 00:36:56,300
and I can relate to that.
1181
00:36:56,300 --> 00:36:58,500
So, to bring the family back
under one roof
1182
00:36:58,500 --> 00:36:59,834
is really special.
1183
00:36:59,834 --> 00:37:01,033
These are from Amsterdam.
1184
00:37:01,033 --> 00:37:02,166
How cool is this? I love this.
1185
00:37:02,166 --> 00:37:03,567
You know...
You know what those are?
1186
00:37:03,867 --> 00:37:05,266
Oh, tulips.
1187
00:37:05,266 --> 00:37:06,934
"Two lips."
1188
00:37:06,934 --> 00:37:08,767
[Jessica] I feel like
we've been dreaming about this
1189
00:37:08,767 --> 00:37:10,767
-for years.
-Years.
1190
00:37:10,767 --> 00:37:13,567
I'm gonna try not to cry.
1191
00:37:13,567 --> 00:37:15,000
I'm already feeling emotional.
1192
00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:16,100
[both chuckle]
1193
00:37:16,100 --> 00:37:18,166
[Mika] Oh, yeah.
This is perfect.
1194
00:37:18,166 --> 00:37:20,066
Oh, my gosh. Nice touch.
1195
00:37:20,066 --> 00:37:21,367
I feel like
this was missing one thing.
1196
00:37:21,367 --> 00:37:23,200
Oh, that's so cute.
1197
00:37:23,767 --> 00:37:24,934
That's got a nice ring to it.
1198
00:37:24,934 --> 00:37:26,000
See?
1199
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:27,266
-Argh!
-[Mark] Mmm-hmm.
1200
00:37:27,266 --> 00:37:29,166
Here, just hold my hand.
It'll be okay.
1201
00:37:29,166 --> 00:37:31,066
They're literally
gonna be here any second.
1202
00:37:31,066 --> 00:37:32,600
Hurry up. What you got?
1203
00:37:32,600 --> 00:37:34,834
I want Jessica
to make a grand entrance.
1204
00:37:34,834 --> 00:37:36,367
[Mika] Oh, I think
they're comin'.
1205
00:37:36,367 --> 00:37:37,667
[Mark] It looks so big.
1206
00:37:37,667 --> 00:37:39,467
Look at the stone.
It goes all the way up.
1207
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,767
Oh, my God.
1208
00:37:41,767 --> 00:37:43,734
-[Brian] Here they are.
Here they are. Here they are.
-[Mika] Oh, yes!
1209
00:37:43,734 --> 00:37:45,300
-This is it, Jessica.
-Here we go.
1210
00:37:45,734 --> 00:37:46,767
Moment of truth.
1211
00:37:46,767 --> 00:37:48,767
[Mark] Garage is open.
Just pull through the garage.
1212
00:37:48,767 --> 00:37:50,767
Make sure
I don't hit anything.
1213
00:37:50,767 --> 00:37:52,133
You got it, girl.
1214
00:37:52,133 --> 00:37:53,200
Ooh.
1215
00:37:55,934 --> 00:37:57,500
[Brian] You got this, Jessica.
1216
00:37:57,500 --> 00:37:59,433
-[Jessica] Oh, look at it.
-[Brian] She got it. Come on.
1217
00:37:59,433 --> 00:38:00,467
Ooh.
1218
00:38:00,467 --> 00:38:02,266
[Mika] Oh, man. She's a little
close to the left.
1219
00:38:02,266 --> 00:38:04,934
They made it a little wider,
so we should be fine.
1220
00:38:04,934 --> 00:38:06,634
Hey. She's in.
1221
00:38:07,467 --> 00:38:09,166
All the way through.
1222
00:38:09,433 --> 00:38:10,533
Look at me.
1223
00:38:11,867 --> 00:38:13,634
-[Brian] Yes.
-[Mika] Woo.
1224
00:38:14,066 --> 00:38:15,266
[Jessica] I did it.
1225
00:38:15,266 --> 00:38:17,667
[Mark] You did it
all the way through.
1226
00:38:17,667 --> 00:38:19,100
[Mika] Woo!
1227
00:38:19,100 --> 00:38:21,033
[Jessica] Oh, my gosh.
It looks so good.
1228
00:38:22,066 --> 00:38:23,934
[Mark] I don't really know
what to say.
1229
00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:26,033
It's amazing.
1230
00:38:26,033 --> 00:38:28,266
We've been dreaming
about this for decades.
1231
00:38:28,266 --> 00:38:29,767
It looks so good.
1232
00:38:29,767 --> 00:38:31,166
-Yeah.
-[Jessica] I love the rock.
1233
00:38:31,166 --> 00:38:32,600
It is so pretty.
1234
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:34,600
-It does have castle features.
-This is our castle.
1235
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:35,834
[Brian] This is your castle.
1236
00:38:35,834 --> 00:38:37,266
Are you guys ready
to go inside your castle?
1237
00:38:37,266 --> 00:38:38,100
[Jessica] I'm going.
1238
00:38:38,100 --> 00:38:39,867
[inspiring music playing]
1239
00:38:39,867 --> 00:38:41,100
[Jessica] Okay.
1240
00:38:47,166 --> 00:38:48,567
[Mark] This is our house.
1241
00:38:49,500 --> 00:38:52,433
They put the stone
in the kitchen.
1242
00:38:52,967 --> 00:38:53,834
Go.
1243
00:38:54,367 --> 00:38:55,467
[Mika] Take it all in.
1244
00:38:55,467 --> 00:38:57,000
You guys.
1245
00:39:00,066 --> 00:39:01,166
Is this what
you dreamed about?
1246
00:39:01,166 --> 00:39:03,367
I said I wasn't gonna cry
in the car.
1247
00:39:03,367 --> 00:39:05,033
[Mika] Aww.
Let's go check this out.
1248
00:39:05,033 --> 00:39:06,166
[Jessica]
This is so beautiful.
1249
00:39:06,166 --> 00:39:07,433
-[Mika] Yeah. Go see.
-[Jessica] Oh, my gosh.
1250
00:39:07,433 --> 00:39:09,367
It's so cool.
1251
00:39:09,367 --> 00:39:11,867
Now we felt bad
telling you guys
1252
00:39:11,867 --> 00:39:14,133
you couldn't do stone
inside the house
1253
00:39:14,133 --> 00:39:15,667
because of the extra cost.
1254
00:39:15,667 --> 00:39:18,166
So, we wanted
to surprise you.
1255
00:39:18,166 --> 00:39:20,000
[Mark] I actually think
it's really fitting here
1256
00:39:20,967 --> 00:39:23,133
to just tell Jessica,
"I told you so."
1257
00:39:23,133 --> 00:39:25,467
-[Mika] Ooh.
-[Brian] Ooh.
1258
00:39:25,467 --> 00:39:26,667
-Hang on a second.
-Yes.
1259
00:39:26,667 --> 00:39:27,734
Hang on a second.
1260
00:39:27,734 --> 00:39:28,934
Got that look.
1261
00:39:28,934 --> 00:39:30,133
[Jessica]
I was on the fence with it,
1262
00:39:30,567 --> 00:39:32,467
but seeing it there,
1263
00:39:32,467 --> 00:39:34,867
I cannot imagine it
any other way.
1264
00:39:34,867 --> 00:39:35,767
I love it so much.
1265
00:39:35,767 --> 00:39:37,767
This is beyond.
1266
00:39:37,767 --> 00:39:39,867
I just kinda wanna
stay here for a second.
1267
00:39:39,867 --> 00:39:41,266
-Okay.
-You need
to have a seat?
1268
00:39:41,266 --> 00:39:42,767
-We have some...
-Yeah, yeah.
1269
00:39:42,767 --> 00:39:44,166
[Mika] There's plenty
of seating
1270
00:39:44,166 --> 00:39:45,567
at this beautiful
large island.
1271
00:39:45,567 --> 00:39:46,600
[Jessica] I know.
1272
00:39:46,600 --> 00:39:47,400
The blue is...
1273
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:48,600
It was definitely
the right choice.
1274
00:39:48,600 --> 00:39:49,433
[Mark] True blue.
1275
00:39:49,433 --> 00:39:50,367
-It's the way to go.
-True blue.
1276
00:39:50,367 --> 00:39:51,100
[Jessica] I love it.
1277
00:39:51,100 --> 00:39:54,266
And the pass through
to the pantry.
1278
00:39:54,266 --> 00:39:55,500
[Jessica]
I didn't even see it.
1279
00:39:55,500 --> 00:39:56,567
[Mika] You gotta go
explore it,
1280
00:39:56,567 --> 00:39:57,467
'cause that pantry,
1281
00:39:57,467 --> 00:39:59,000
you're gonna get
your wheat milling parties
1282
00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:00,133
-on, girl.
-[Brian] Oh, yeah.
1283
00:40:00,133 --> 00:40:01,400
Let's push through that door.
1284
00:40:02,166 --> 00:40:03,333
Oh, my gosh.
1285
00:40:04,266 --> 00:40:05,233
Oh, wow.
1286
00:40:05,233 --> 00:40:06,166
Oh, my gosh.
1287
00:40:06,500 --> 00:40:07,834
[Brian] Peek-a-boo.
1288
00:40:07,834 --> 00:40:09,600
-[Mika laughs]
-Look at that.
1289
00:40:09,600 --> 00:40:10,834
-[Mika] Order up.
-[Brian] Order up. Yeah.
1290
00:40:10,834 --> 00:40:12,767
[Mika] There's still
so much more house to see.
1291
00:40:12,767 --> 00:40:13,734
Check out this office.
1292
00:40:13,734 --> 00:40:15,033
[Mark] Let's go check out
the office.
1293
00:40:15,033 --> 00:40:17,133
-Oh, my God.
-Yes.
1294
00:40:17,133 --> 00:40:18,500
Look, it's our barrel table.
1295
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:19,600
-[Brian] There you go.
-[Jessica laughs]
1296
00:40:19,600 --> 00:40:21,867
[Brian]
We put a map of the world
on this wall
1297
00:40:21,867 --> 00:40:23,867
for all the places
that you've been,
1298
00:40:23,867 --> 00:40:26,066
and then the blueprint
to where you are now.
1299
00:40:26,066 --> 00:40:27,033
[Mika] It's a map
of the house here.
1300
00:40:27,033 --> 00:40:28,000
[Brian]
Where do you wanna go next?
1301
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:28,934
[Mark] Where do you
wanna go next?
1302
00:40:28,934 --> 00:40:29,734
[Jessica] Let's see
the kids' rooms.
1303
00:40:29,734 --> 00:40:30,734
-Yes.
-Yeah.
1304
00:40:31,567 --> 00:40:33,367
[Mark]
Check out Olivia's room.
1305
00:40:33,367 --> 00:40:35,166
Oh, my gosh.
1306
00:40:35,166 --> 00:40:36,767
I love the purple.
1307
00:40:36,767 --> 00:40:38,100
[Mark]
There's just so much purple.
1308
00:40:38,100 --> 00:40:39,467
You said she liked...
1309
00:40:39,467 --> 00:40:40,600
-I love the color.
-...a little bit
of color, so...
1310
00:40:40,600 --> 00:40:41,734
[Jessica]
She's gonna love this.
1311
00:40:41,734 --> 00:40:43,600
[Mika] And she's gonna have
her en suite bathroom.
1312
00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:44,934
[Jessica] Oh, my gosh.
1313
00:40:44,934 --> 00:40:46,166
This is so nice.
1314
00:40:46,166 --> 00:40:47,367
[Mark] She's gonna love this.
1315
00:40:47,367 --> 00:40:48,166
[Jessica] Yes.
1316
00:40:48,166 --> 00:40:49,333
-Good job, guys.
-All right.
1317
00:40:49,333 --> 00:40:50,767
Well, we can't forget
about Ava.
1318
00:40:50,767 --> 00:40:52,233
-[Brian] Ava.
-Let's travel the world.
1319
00:40:53,333 --> 00:40:54,867
[Jessica] Oh, my gosh.
1320
00:40:54,867 --> 00:40:55,767
[gasps]
1321
00:40:55,767 --> 00:40:57,166
Oh, those are so cute.
1322
00:40:57,166 --> 00:40:58,467
Oh, my gosh.
1323
00:40:58,467 --> 00:40:59,834
-She's gonna love this.
-[Mark] She is.
1324
00:40:59,834 --> 00:41:01,467
And the bed's really close
to the floor.
1325
00:41:01,467 --> 00:41:02,500
She's a huge fan of that.
1326
00:41:02,500 --> 00:41:03,567
[Brian] We wanted Ava to feel
1327
00:41:03,567 --> 00:41:05,033
like she was in Japan
1328
00:41:05,033 --> 00:41:06,100
when she was in this room.
1329
00:41:06,100 --> 00:41:08,767
Let's start our journey
to your main suite.
1330
00:41:08,767 --> 00:41:09,934
-Yes.
-Go.
1331
00:41:12,667 --> 00:41:13,934
It's so big.
1332
00:41:13,934 --> 00:41:15,000
[Jessica] Oh, my gosh.
1333
00:41:15,000 --> 00:41:16,166
[Mika] And there's, again,
some cool pieces.
1334
00:41:16,166 --> 00:41:17,000
[Brian] What is that?
1335
00:41:17,000 --> 00:41:20,867
Oh, this is an artillery shell
from 1917.
1336
00:41:20,867 --> 00:41:22,066
[Mika] Look at her.
Look at her.
1337
00:41:22,066 --> 00:41:23,767
Oh, she's gone. She's gone.
1338
00:41:23,767 --> 00:41:25,233
[Mika] And there goes Jessica.
1339
00:41:25,233 --> 00:41:26,400
-[laughs]
-Bye, Jessica.
1340
00:41:27,100 --> 00:41:28,000
[Mika] Go check it out, Mark.
1341
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,000
[Mark] The shower
looks really good.
1342
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:31,367
-This tub...
-[Mark] Isn't it awesome?
1343
00:41:31,367 --> 00:41:32,467
[Mika] Yeah. Right?
1344
00:41:32,467 --> 00:41:33,767
[Brian] How does this compare
1345
00:41:33,767 --> 00:41:35,834
to military-base bathrooms?
1346
00:41:35,834 --> 00:41:37,667
Nothing like this.
1347
00:41:37,667 --> 00:41:39,133
[Jessica]
This does feel like a spa.
1348
00:41:39,133 --> 00:41:41,100
I'm so ready to soak.
1349
00:41:41,100 --> 00:41:43,467
Well, Jessica,
you can't soak quite yet
1350
00:41:43,467 --> 00:41:45,166
because there's
one more space
1351
00:41:45,166 --> 00:41:47,500
-we want you guys
to soak in.
-Yes.
1352
00:41:47,500 --> 00:41:49,166
[Brian] Mark and Jessica,
1353
00:41:49,166 --> 00:41:50,667
this was the reason
1354
00:41:50,667 --> 00:41:52,600
you fell in love
with this lot.
1355
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:54,433
Look at this view
coming off this lanai.
1356
00:41:54,433 --> 00:41:55,767
-Yes.
-How big this is.
1357
00:41:55,767 --> 00:41:57,333
[Jessica] This is
so beautiful.
1358
00:41:57,333 --> 00:41:59,233
[Mika] You found
the perfect lot and location.
1359
00:41:59,233 --> 00:42:00,500
You got your three bedrooms,
1360
00:42:00,500 --> 00:42:01,600
you got your three bathrooms,
1361
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,033
plus your office.
1362
00:42:03,033 --> 00:42:05,233
[Brian]
All in 2,900 square feet.
1363
00:42:05,233 --> 00:42:10,166
Yup. And the budget
of $739,000.
1364
00:42:10,500 --> 00:42:12,667
-And 0.15.
-Yeah.
1365
00:42:12,667 --> 00:42:15,767
-[mouthing] Yes.
-This has been an honor for us
to build your dream home.
1366
00:42:15,767 --> 00:42:17,066
You did such a great job.
1367
00:42:17,066 --> 00:42:19,667
-Welcome home, again.
-Welcome back home.
1368
00:42:19,667 --> 00:42:22,133
[Jessica] It's gonna take me
a while to soak in
1369
00:42:22,133 --> 00:42:23,867
that this is really
my house...
1370
00:42:23,867 --> 00:42:25,567
-It is.
-[Jessica] Our dreams.
1371
00:42:25,567 --> 00:42:27,266
-We're here to stay.
-[Jessica laughs]
1372
00:42:27,266 --> 00:42:28,266
[Jessica] Just knowing that,
1373
00:42:28,266 --> 00:42:29,934
like, this is gonna be
our home.
1374
00:42:29,934 --> 00:42:31,967
We're all gonna be
back together again.
1375
00:42:31,967 --> 00:42:33,867
[Mark] We've always been
coming to this area,
1376
00:42:33,867 --> 00:42:35,133
staying with friends
and family.
1377
00:42:35,133 --> 00:42:36,667
And now, anytime
that there's a party
1378
00:42:36,667 --> 00:42:39,333
that needs to be hosted,
it can be here.
1379
00:42:39,333 --> 00:42:41,166
-[Brian] Hey.
-Hi.
1380
00:42:41,166 --> 00:42:43,266
[Mark] Come on in.
Have a cookie.
1381
00:42:43,266 --> 00:42:45,033
-Give us a couple more.
-[Mark] Make yourself at home.
1382
00:42:45,033 --> 00:42:48,467
Y'all seriously deserve this,
so much.
1383
00:42:48,467 --> 00:42:49,600
Aww.
1384
00:42:49,600 --> 00:42:50,867
[Mark]
Don't make her cry again.
1385
00:42:50,867 --> 00:42:52,066
Yeah.
1386
00:42:52,066 --> 00:42:53,333
Mark's home.
1387
00:42:54,000 --> 00:42:54,934
Forever.
1388
00:42:55,367 --> 00:42:56,500
