1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:02,800
Every forever home
has its own story.
2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,767
-[Drew] And we can't
wait to help tell it.
-[laughing]
3
00:00:04,767 --> 00:00:06,567
It's been in our family,
uh, for generations.
4
00:00:06,567 --> 00:00:08,000
Let me smash, let me smash!
5
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:09,300
[man] This is the next step.
6
00:00:09,367 --> 00:00:10,800
[woman] The next
chapter in my life.
7
00:00:10,867 --> 00:00:12,767
-Hi-yah! Whoo!
-[Drew] Love it!
8
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:16,200
-[Jonathan] After you.
-Welcome home.
9
00:00:16,266 --> 00:00:18,066
-[woman] Oh my goodness!
-[man] Look at this!
10
00:00:18,066 --> 00:00:19,200
-Oh, wow!
-[laughing]
11
00:00:19,266 --> 00:00:20,200
Let's go!
12
00:00:20,266 --> 00:00:21,300
It feels like home.
13
00:00:21,367 --> 00:00:22,800
[all laughing]
14
00:00:24,166 --> 00:00:25,266
[Jonathan] Come on
in for group hug!
15
00:00:25,266 --> 00:00:26,367
[laughter]
16
00:00:37,567 --> 00:00:39,800
Gosh, we met, what?
17
00:00:39,867 --> 00:00:42,367
-Ten, 12 years?
-Ten, 12 years, yeah,
it's been a while.
18
00:00:42,367 --> 00:00:43,567
[Brianne] Just randomly.
19
00:00:43,567 --> 00:00:45,266
-[Dan] Yeah. The mall.
-[Brianne] Mm-hmm.
20
00:00:45,266 --> 00:00:47,567
You don't know the riff-raff
you'll meet there. [laughs]
21
00:00:47,567 --> 00:00:49,567
[Brianne] We've been
married a year.
22
00:00:49,567 --> 00:00:51,100
We have two kids,
23
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:52,467
-we have Jillian.
-[Dan] She's six.
24
00:00:52,467 --> 00:00:54,200
[Dan] And we have
Jack, who's two.
25
00:00:54,266 --> 00:00:56,767
[Brianne] And they
both grew up here,
26
00:00:56,767 --> 00:00:58,700
and this is the only house
that they've ever known.
27
00:00:58,767 --> 00:01:00,000
-[Brianne laughing]
-[baby laughing]
28
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:00,867
-[Brianne laughing]
-[baby laughing]
29
00:01:00,867 --> 00:01:04,467
Our journey to get
to this house was
certainly a long one.
30
00:01:04,467 --> 00:01:06,667
We looked at
house after house.
31
00:01:06,667 --> 00:01:09,100
But, you know,
the minute we walked in,
it called your name.
32
00:01:09,166 --> 00:01:12,000
It begged you to come
sit down and relax.
33
00:01:12,066 --> 00:01:15,367
It feels like, you know,
the forever home.
34
00:01:15,367 --> 00:01:16,767
But it doesn't act like it.
35
00:01:16,767 --> 00:01:18,367
There's so many
little bug-a-boos
36
00:01:18,367 --> 00:01:21,100
and things that, yes,
you can live with, but man,
37
00:01:21,166 --> 00:01:23,166
if you were gonna
do it forever, like, God,
38
00:01:23,166 --> 00:01:24,734
it would be so great
to get that fixed.
39
00:01:24,734 --> 00:01:28,266
[Brianne] We've waited
such a long time to
renovate this house.
40
00:01:28,266 --> 00:01:29,867
[Dan] We've been so busy
raising the two kids,
41
00:01:29,867 --> 00:01:30,000
and plus we needed
to save up some cash
for this renovation.
42
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,700
and plus we needed
to save up some cash
for this renovation.
43
00:01:33,767 --> 00:01:35,867
This home means so
much to us already,
44
00:01:35,867 --> 00:01:39,667
because it's the first
and only home we've
known as a family.
45
00:01:39,667 --> 00:01:43,200
So it's the first steps,
it's the first day of school,
46
00:01:43,266 --> 00:01:46,700
it's all those things
that just really make
it so special.
47
00:01:46,767 --> 00:01:48,667
[Brianne] You know, every day
there's a little memory,
48
00:01:48,667 --> 00:01:52,000
you know, that happens,
and it all happened here,
in this home.
49
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,000
[Jack giggling]
50
00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,867
-And, it just...
-Yeah.
51
00:01:57,867 --> 00:01:59,200
-It's so hard to replace.
-Yeah, it would be.
52
00:01:59,266 --> 00:02:00,000
It would be very difficult.
53
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:00,867
It would be very difficult.
54
00:02:09,266 --> 00:02:12,367
Well, Brianne and Dan
have definitely picked an
amazing neighborhood.
55
00:02:12,367 --> 00:02:13,767
[Jonathan] Well,
gosh, I've never been
up this way.
56
00:02:13,767 --> 00:02:15,567
You're literally on
the edge of the mountain.
57
00:02:15,567 --> 00:02:16,867
[Drew] This is
the kind of home
58
00:02:16,867 --> 00:02:18,166
Mom and Dad would
have loved to have.
59
00:02:18,166 --> 00:02:19,667
[Drew knocking]
60
00:02:19,667 --> 00:02:21,367
-[Jonathan and Drew] Hey!
-[Brianne] Hi!
61
00:02:21,367 --> 00:02:23,100
-[Brianne] Please come on in!
-[Dan] Come on in!
62
00:02:23,100 --> 00:02:25,900
-[Drew] Thank you, thank you.
-[Jonathan] How are you?
What a beautiful neighborhood!
63
00:02:25,967 --> 00:02:27,533
Oh, thank you! We love it.
64
00:02:27,533 --> 00:02:29,400
-[Jonathan] Yeah, it's crazy--
-[Brianne] Literally on
the mountain, yeah.
65
00:02:29,467 --> 00:02:30,000
I feel this is not a good
spot for Jonathan.
66
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:31,100
I feel this is not a good
spot for Jonathan.
67
00:02:31,166 --> 00:02:33,100
-[Brianne] No.
-I'm touching my hair.
68
00:02:33,166 --> 00:02:35,767
-I have quite
the clearance, but, yeah!
-[all chuckle]
69
00:02:35,767 --> 00:02:38,200
Have you ever had the idea
of maybe raising this?
70
00:02:38,266 --> 00:02:40,066
-Every single time
we walk through it.
-Yeah.
71
00:02:40,066 --> 00:02:41,700
Well, in here,
though. I love this.
72
00:02:41,767 --> 00:02:44,767
I mean, this is a nice,
big, wide living space.
73
00:02:44,767 --> 00:02:46,700
[Dan] Yeah, it's the main
living area, for sure.
74
00:02:46,767 --> 00:02:50,100
[Brianne] Yes.
Every night, we sit here
with the kids before bed,
75
00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:52,066
and we watch a special
show together.
76
00:02:52,066 --> 00:02:54,367
[Jonathan] Tell me about
the world's largest TV.
77
00:02:54,367 --> 00:02:56,000
-Yes, it is a huge TV.
-[Dan] Could be bigger.
78
00:02:56,066 --> 00:02:57,400
Do you both like that?
79
00:02:57,400 --> 00:02:59,900
Has anybody ever said,
"Man, I wish I bought
a smaller TV"?
80
00:02:59,967 --> 00:03:00,000
[all laugh]
81
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:01,100
[all laugh]
82
00:03:01,100 --> 00:03:02,300
-True.
-[Dan] No.
83
00:03:02,367 --> 00:03:04,100
[Brianne] And my
haphazard attempt
84
00:03:04,100 --> 00:03:07,567
to balance out
the largeness of the TV
with these standing shelves,
85
00:03:07,567 --> 00:03:09,600
because I clearly
can't build anything in
86
00:03:09,667 --> 00:03:11,367
with these wonderful
mirrors behind us.
87
00:03:11,367 --> 00:03:14,467
[Jonathan] It does look
a lot better if you have
actual built-ins.
88
00:03:14,467 --> 00:03:16,300
It would make it feel...
89
00:03:16,367 --> 00:03:17,900
-Purposeful.
-[Jonathan]...well,
yeah, exactly.
90
00:03:17,967 --> 00:03:20,100
One thing I'm noticing is,
looking through here,
91
00:03:20,100 --> 00:03:22,800
-you have this hardwood,
that hardwood...
-[Brianne] Yes.
92
00:03:22,867 --> 00:03:24,400
-You have that tile.
-[Brianne] Yes.
93
00:03:24,467 --> 00:03:26,900
[Dan] You know, and actually,
the lips, the raises,
94
00:03:26,967 --> 00:03:29,367
I mean, the kids run
through here and trip,
95
00:03:29,367 --> 00:03:30,000
and drag their toes, and fall.
96
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:31,100
and drag their toes, and fall.
97
00:03:31,166 --> 00:03:32,166
[Jonathan] Look at
the gapping, too.
98
00:03:32,166 --> 00:03:33,467
-The gapping is pretty bad.
-[Brianne] Yeah.
99
00:03:33,467 --> 00:03:36,000
Would you like to
have new flooring,
100
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,967
-just flow continuously at
the same level, everywhere?
-[Brianne] We would.
101
00:03:38,967 --> 00:03:40,500
-[Dan] Yes, 100%.
-[Jonathan] Okay.
102
00:03:40,567 --> 00:03:42,867
So one thing, um,
that's usually weird
to me about this,
103
00:03:42,867 --> 00:03:45,166
is that we have such
a large space,
104
00:03:45,166 --> 00:03:47,367
but we use such
a small portion of it.
105
00:03:47,367 --> 00:03:50,000
-[Jonathan] Mm-hmm.
-[Brianne] Because it's not
laid out well enough for us.
106
00:03:50,066 --> 00:03:52,100
-Yeah.
-So this is your dead zone?
107
00:03:52,166 --> 00:03:54,100
[Brianne] This is 100%
the dead zone, yes.
108
00:03:54,166 --> 00:03:56,100
[Jonathan] What do
you think of the big
ol' fireplace?
109
00:03:56,166 --> 00:03:58,400
Um, yeah, I don't love it.
110
00:03:58,467 --> 00:04:00,000
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
-Yeah, it's big and old,
111
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:00,867
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
-Yeah, it's big and old,
112
00:04:00,867 --> 00:04:04,100
are the two key words,
I think, that, uh, would
describe it well.
113
00:04:04,100 --> 00:04:06,400
[Dan chuckles] We haven't
used it at all, either.
114
00:04:06,467 --> 00:04:08,200
-[Brianne] Ever.
-Like, I mean, we hang
stockings from it,
115
00:04:08,266 --> 00:04:10,000
-you know, for Christmas.
-[Brianne] Once a year.
116
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:12,266
-that's that.
Just didn't happen here.
-But aside from that,
117
00:04:12,266 --> 00:04:13,700
you know, we saw
the pictures of this,
118
00:04:13,767 --> 00:04:15,667
and I almost didn't
come look at it,
119
00:04:15,667 --> 00:04:17,700
because, I mean,
it was a paneling
nightmare in this room,
120
00:04:17,767 --> 00:04:20,367
you can't tell,
'cause we painted it,
thank God, but--
121
00:04:20,367 --> 00:04:22,667
-Oh, I can tell.
-[Brianne laughs]
It was an orange--
122
00:04:22,667 --> 00:04:24,467
[Dan] Everything
was burnt orange.
123
00:04:24,467 --> 00:04:26,000
-Oh, really?
-[Brianne] But, you know,
124
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:28,166
really, it was from
the minute we walked
in the front door,
125
00:04:28,166 --> 00:04:30,000
and we just saw this
big open space too,
126
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:31,367
and we just saw this
big open space too,
127
00:04:31,367 --> 00:04:33,100
effectively, this
wall of glass,
128
00:04:33,100 --> 00:04:34,200
looking out at the backyard,
129
00:04:34,266 --> 00:04:36,667
and I had this vision, right?
To open those doors,
130
00:04:36,667 --> 00:04:38,166
and the kids would
be playing, but honestly,
131
00:04:38,166 --> 00:04:39,867
they don't function very well.
132
00:04:39,867 --> 00:04:42,500
-I gotta test this.
-[Brianne] Yeah. Be careful.
133
00:04:42,567 --> 00:04:44,900
-The glass is
very thick. [laughs]
-[Drew] Is it gonna bite me?
134
00:04:44,967 --> 00:04:47,567
[groaning]
135
00:04:47,567 --> 00:04:49,700
-[all chuckling]
-[groaning]
136
00:04:49,767 --> 00:04:51,000
-So they're a little sticky.
-[Drew] Okay.
137
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:52,300
Yeah. Thanks, Hercules.
138
00:04:52,367 --> 00:04:53,667
I think these are original.
139
00:04:53,667 --> 00:04:55,700
-[Brianne] I think...Yeah.
-They look original. Yeah.
140
00:04:55,767 --> 00:04:59,367
This house was designed
to showcase this yard,
141
00:04:59,367 --> 00:05:00,000
and with what you guys
have done outside,
142
00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:01,066
and with what you guys
have done outside,
143
00:05:01,066 --> 00:05:03,166
it's absolutely
beautiful, so yeah,
144
00:05:03,166 --> 00:05:05,467
you should have ease
in opening it up,
145
00:05:05,467 --> 00:05:06,800
and letting the kids
come and go.
146
00:05:06,867 --> 00:05:10,100
Yeah, that is,
always sort of
been the vision.
147
00:05:10,100 --> 00:05:11,767
We bought this house, and it,
148
00:05:11,767 --> 00:05:13,166
it was someone else's house,
149
00:05:13,166 --> 00:05:14,266
and we've slowly
made it our own,
150
00:05:14,266 --> 00:05:16,066
but now we really get
a chance to kind of,
151
00:05:16,066 --> 00:05:18,600
put our stamp on things,
and make it how we
actually want it.
152
00:05:18,667 --> 00:05:20,667
-[Brianne] Yes.
-And I notice you have
a bedroom up here...
153
00:05:20,667 --> 00:05:22,467
-We do.
-...which, this was probably
meant to be an office,
154
00:05:22,467 --> 00:05:24,000
originally, but who
stays in here?
155
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:26,867
[Dan] It was our OG office,
and then Jack's room
once he was born.
156
00:05:26,867 --> 00:05:28,367
-[Brianne] Yeah.
-[Jonathan] Oh...
157
00:05:28,367 --> 00:05:30,000
So, is there any
issues with this room?
158
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:30,100
So, is there any
issues with this room?
159
00:05:30,100 --> 00:05:32,867
-Well, there's a whole
host of issues!
-[laughing]
160
00:05:32,867 --> 00:05:34,800
[loudly] Are there any
issues that could
161
00:05:34,867 --> 00:05:36,800
-freak out your child
while they sleep?
-[laughs]
162
00:05:36,867 --> 00:05:39,166
-[Brianne] Can't hear you!
-This is what nightmares
are made of.
163
00:05:39,166 --> 00:05:40,667
[laughing]
164
00:05:40,667 --> 00:05:43,767
So this is the whole home
165
00:05:43,767 --> 00:05:45,200
ventilation system
they used to have,
166
00:05:45,266 --> 00:05:46,800
before air conditioning,
before all that,
167
00:05:46,867 --> 00:05:47,900
that's what it was.
168
00:05:47,967 --> 00:05:49,667
So that makes me think
that at some point,
169
00:05:49,667 --> 00:05:52,266
this was probably more open,
to the main area.
170
00:05:52,266 --> 00:05:54,100
It wasn't necessarily closed
off like a bedroom,
171
00:05:54,166 --> 00:05:57,467
because that was how
you circulated the air,
and cooled it down.
172
00:05:57,467 --> 00:06:00,000
-How many bedrooms
in total are there?
-Four.
173
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:00,100
-How many bedrooms
in total are there?
-Four.
174
00:06:00,166 --> 00:06:02,166
-Including this one?
-Including this one.
175
00:06:02,166 --> 00:06:04,166
Uh, but we use
one as an office.
176
00:06:04,166 --> 00:06:05,500
[Dan] And it's a little
bit smaller, too.
177
00:06:05,567 --> 00:06:06,800
It's not as big
as this spot, so...
178
00:06:06,867 --> 00:06:08,266
[Brianne] We moved
Jack from this room,
179
00:06:08,266 --> 00:06:10,266
'cause he would
have outgrown it in
a couple of years.
180
00:06:10,266 --> 00:06:11,800
Okay, so you wanted Jack
to have the bigger room?
181
00:06:11,867 --> 00:06:14,367
Yeah, but, you know,
there's no bathroom close by.
182
00:06:14,367 --> 00:06:17,867
I mean, you have to walk
through the house to get
to a bathroom.
183
00:06:17,867 --> 00:06:20,467
So are you saying you
would like to find a way
184
00:06:20,467 --> 00:06:23,700
to have a bedroom for Jack,
not in this area, though?
185
00:06:23,767 --> 00:06:25,166
I think so, yes.
186
00:06:25,166 --> 00:06:27,166
Well, why don't we go
around and look at that
side of the house?
187
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,200
Oh, yeah.
That is quite the lip,
coming into the kitchen.
188
00:06:33,266 --> 00:06:35,467
So, before, oh my gosh!
189
00:06:35,467 --> 00:06:37,166
-[Brianne] A second!
-[Jonathan] There's
another one!
190
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:41,500
[Brianne] It's bizarre.
And, like, this is just, like,
a huge hazard with the kids.
191
00:06:41,567 --> 00:06:44,100
Like, I try to put stuff
in front of it, to, like,
192
00:06:44,166 --> 00:06:46,700
prevent them
from, like, just hitting
their head on it.
193
00:06:46,767 --> 00:06:48,700
[Dan] The fireplaces
are ridiculous,
194
00:06:48,767 --> 00:06:51,000
because they're
a huge space suck.
195
00:06:51,066 --> 00:06:53,667
You know,
it's 100 degrees right now.
Like, we don't need a fire.
196
00:06:53,667 --> 00:06:55,467
[Brianne] And, like,
outside of the fireplace,
197
00:06:55,467 --> 00:06:57,767
I mean, this is just
a wide, open space
198
00:06:57,767 --> 00:07:00,000
that also just
becomes a hallway,
199
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:00,767
that also just
becomes a hallway,
200
00:07:00,767 --> 00:07:02,367
or a place
to just store stuff.
201
00:07:02,367 --> 00:07:04,400
I mean, the house is filled
with so many spaces
202
00:07:04,467 --> 00:07:06,100
that are sort
of underutilized.
203
00:07:06,166 --> 00:07:08,000
This is part of the puzzle
we need to figure out,
204
00:07:08,066 --> 00:07:10,266
because there's a lot
we can do with these areas.
205
00:07:10,266 --> 00:07:12,867
[Jonathan] I do love
the sightline of the yard,
206
00:07:12,867 --> 00:07:14,367
I love the natural light.
207
00:07:14,367 --> 00:07:17,967
Do you use this a lot?
Is this where you have
your formal dinners?
208
00:07:17,967 --> 00:07:20,166
We use this
almost all the time.
209
00:07:20,166 --> 00:07:22,266
I mean, every meal
is really eaten here.
210
00:07:22,266 --> 00:07:25,066
Um, because we, we have this,
211
00:07:25,700 --> 00:07:28,100
island-ish or peninsula here,
212
00:07:28,100 --> 00:07:30,000
but it's not
really functional, so--
213
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:30,567
but it's not
really functional, so--
214
00:07:30,567 --> 00:07:33,100
Wait, what is happening here?
215
00:07:34,100 --> 00:07:36,200
What kind of
cabinets are these?
216
00:07:36,266 --> 00:07:38,266
They're the wraparound,
behind the microwave cabinet.
217
00:07:38,266 --> 00:07:40,500
You mean you don't,
you don't have those
all the time?
218
00:07:40,567 --> 00:07:41,967
Oh, it's a microwave
down here.
219
00:07:42,967 --> 00:07:44,767
Oh, so basically,
this is where you,
220
00:07:44,767 --> 00:07:47,000
oh, you need
a spoon or a ladle?
221
00:07:47,066 --> 00:07:48,900
-Here you go.
-Perfect. That's great.
222
00:07:48,967 --> 00:07:50,900
-I like that. Okay, this...
-[Brianne laughs]
223
00:07:52,100 --> 00:07:54,767
-...a problem.
-This, a problem.
224
00:07:54,767 --> 00:07:56,400
-Come in here for a second.
-Oh, yeah.
225
00:07:56,467 --> 00:08:00,000
Oh, look. It's even buffed
where people have hit
their head on it.
226
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:00,300
Oh, look. It's even buffed
where people have hit
their head on it.
227
00:08:00,367 --> 00:08:02,667
-[Drew] Do you
guys like to cook?
-[Brianne and Dan] We do.
228
00:08:02,667 --> 00:08:04,967
[Drew] So, and,
do you like the kitchen
229
00:08:04,967 --> 00:08:06,467
being tucked away in
this little cave over here?
230
00:08:06,467 --> 00:08:07,567
-No!
-No.
231
00:08:07,567 --> 00:08:09,367
You know, again,
when we moved in here,
232
00:08:09,367 --> 00:08:11,166
I had these visions
that the kids would
be sitting here,
233
00:08:11,166 --> 00:08:12,767
and I'd be serving
them their meals.
234
00:08:12,767 --> 00:08:14,967
But in reality, they sit here,
235
00:08:14,967 --> 00:08:17,000
they wanna touch the stove,
so it's such a hazard.
236
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,100
And, this makes this
part of your counter
237
00:08:19,166 --> 00:08:20,667
-completely useless.
-Completely unusable.
238
00:08:20,667 --> 00:08:22,767
-Well--
-And I mean, there's still
other terrible things here.
239
00:08:22,767 --> 00:08:25,166
-Oh, this door.
-I mean, when you come in,
from the garage...
240
00:08:25,166 --> 00:08:28,100
-[Brianne] Somebody is
always at the fridge. Um.
-[Jonathan] Mm-hmm.
241
00:08:28,166 --> 00:08:30,000
-The kids drop their stuff...
-The kids drop stuff here.
Book bags.
242
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:30,400
-The kids drop their stuff...
-The kids drop stuff here.
Book bags.
243
00:08:30,467 --> 00:08:32,300
[Brianne] Because
there's just no place
to put anything...
244
00:08:32,367 --> 00:08:34,266
-[Jonathan] Okay.
-...it's just this huge
choke point.
245
00:08:34,266 --> 00:08:37,300
Yeah, this kitchen
is not inspiring.
246
00:08:37,367 --> 00:08:39,300
-It is so dark.
-So dark.
247
00:08:39,367 --> 00:08:41,667
-[Drew] Yeah.
-And so disconnected.
248
00:08:41,667 --> 00:08:44,100
[Jonathan] Right now,
you have a lot
of wasted space.
249
00:08:44,100 --> 00:08:45,500
Pulling down the wall
that separates
250
00:08:45,567 --> 00:08:47,000
the kitchen from
the living area,
251
00:08:47,066 --> 00:08:49,400
and getting rid of
the bulky fireplaces,
252
00:08:49,467 --> 00:08:51,900
would allow us to give
you a much better
functioning kitchen,
253
00:08:51,967 --> 00:08:54,166
eliminating the dead zones
that aren't working for you.
254
00:08:56,100 --> 00:08:57,767
We haven't actually asked.
What's your style?
255
00:08:57,767 --> 00:08:59,467
What are you looking for,
for the aesthetic?
256
00:08:59,467 --> 00:09:00,000
I think I'm a little bit more,
maybe traditional,
257
00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,000
I think I'm a little bit more,
maybe traditional,
258
00:09:02,066 --> 00:09:04,567
I kind of like that,
I think it's called
California casual.
259
00:09:04,567 --> 00:09:06,200
A relaxed vibe, I guess.
260
00:09:06,266 --> 00:09:08,567
-[Drew] Earth tones,
right? Wood tones.
-[Brianne] Yes. Yes.
261
00:09:08,567 --> 00:09:10,166
[Dan] Very kind of timeless,
I think, more than anything.
262
00:09:10,166 --> 00:09:12,500
So that it's not, like,
oh, in another 10 years,
like, oh, god,
263
00:09:12,567 --> 00:09:13,867
-we gotta rip everything out.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
264
00:09:13,900 --> 00:09:16,300
-[Dan] Because we went
with an avocado fridge.
-[laughing]
265
00:09:16,367 --> 00:09:19,100
[Drew] So, knowing
that there could be
some major things
266
00:09:19,100 --> 00:09:21,266
that we have to do,
what do you wanna spend?
267
00:09:21,266 --> 00:09:22,667
Well, we've talked about it.
268
00:09:22,667 --> 00:09:26,200
Um, and we feel
comfortable spending
up to $250,000.
269
00:09:26,266 --> 00:09:27,567
[both] Okay.
270
00:09:27,567 --> 00:09:30,000
[Jonathan] $250,000 would
seem like a lot of money,
271
00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:30,100
[Jonathan] $250,000 would
seem like a lot of money,
272
00:09:30,100 --> 00:09:32,066
but we're dealing with
a lot of house, here.
273
00:09:32,066 --> 00:09:33,400
You've been saving
up for years,
274
00:09:33,467 --> 00:09:35,066
and it's also an
emotional investment,
275
00:09:35,066 --> 00:09:36,800
so we're gonna be careful
where we spend that.
276
00:09:36,867 --> 00:09:38,767
This is a mid-50s home,
277
00:09:38,767 --> 00:09:40,400
we can come across
a lot of problems,
278
00:09:40,467 --> 00:09:42,467
perhaps cheap work that
was done over the years,
279
00:09:42,467 --> 00:09:44,900
it's really gonna compromise
some of the structure.
280
00:09:44,967 --> 00:09:47,000
-I'll put together
two options for you.
-[Brianne] Okay.
281
00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:48,700
But no matter what we do,
282
00:09:48,767 --> 00:09:50,400
everything will now
be tailored...
283
00:09:50,467 --> 00:09:51,567
-Yeah.
-...to what's gonna
make life better.
284
00:09:51,567 --> 00:09:53,266
Sounds incredible.
285
00:09:53,266 --> 00:09:54,667
If you're ready,
clear out the house,
286
00:09:54,667 --> 00:09:55,900
and we'll start
demo within a week.
287
00:09:55,967 --> 00:09:57,867
-Okay!
-[Dan] All right, awesome!
288
00:09:57,867 --> 00:10:00,000
-[Jonathan] Don't
look so nervous!
-[Brianne] I'm nervous!
289
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,367
-[Jonathan] Don't
look so nervous!
-[Brianne] I'm nervous!
290
00:10:00,367 --> 00:10:02,000
I feel terrified
about living through
291
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,700
a large-scale
renovation. [laughs]
292
00:10:03,767 --> 00:10:05,300
Absolutely terrified!
293
00:10:05,367 --> 00:10:07,800
Yeah, I mean,
it's very scary. Like,
294
00:10:07,867 --> 00:10:11,000
this is obviously our biggest,
kind of, investment,
295
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:13,867
so it's definitely
stressful, and,
296
00:10:13,867 --> 00:10:14,900
-you know...
-But it's also exciting.
297
00:10:22,266 --> 00:10:24,200
-Okie-doke...whoa!
-[Brianne laughs]
298
00:10:24,266 --> 00:10:25,567
-Forgot about that.
-Watch your head.
299
00:10:25,567 --> 00:10:26,700
Heads up!
300
00:10:26,767 --> 00:10:28,200
You know, honestly,
301
00:10:28,266 --> 00:10:29,700
it's such a great space.
302
00:10:29,767 --> 00:10:30,000
It draws you right in...
303
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:31,033
It draws you right in...
304
00:10:31,066 --> 00:10:34,266
-Doesn't it?
-...it has all the good
things peppered in,
305
00:10:34,266 --> 00:10:36,767
-with a couple
not so good things.
-What?
306
00:10:36,767 --> 00:10:38,567
But it's for all your ballet!
307
00:10:38,567 --> 00:10:40,200
You can't, there's no bar!
308
00:10:40,266 --> 00:10:42,567
-[Brianne laughs]
-How am I supposed
to do my ballet stretches
309
00:10:42,567 --> 00:10:44,400
if we don't have the bar?
310
00:10:44,467 --> 00:10:46,567
You know, it was said
a long time ago,
311
00:10:46,567 --> 00:10:48,367
that mirrors help make
a room feel bigger.
312
00:10:48,367 --> 00:10:50,266
And this is technically true.
313
00:10:50,266 --> 00:10:52,867
They also help a space feel
like it's stuck in the 80s.
314
00:10:53,700 --> 00:10:54,900
All right,
we ready to do this?
315
00:10:54,967 --> 00:10:56,500
[Jonathan] Yeah, we...
316
00:10:56,567 --> 00:10:58,100
-Let's go! Let's go!
-[all laughing]
317
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:00,000
You've been waiting
the whole time!
318
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:00,467
You've been waiting
the whole time!
319
00:11:00,467 --> 00:11:02,266
There was a little
bit of dancing,
320
00:11:02,266 --> 00:11:04,066
there's a little
bit of flexing,
321
00:11:04,066 --> 00:11:05,600
what else are you gonna do
in front of these mirrors?
322
00:11:05,667 --> 00:11:08,000
'Cause you're not
looking at them for
aesthetic purposes.
323
00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:10,467
-Ready for a flashback?
-[Brianne] I'm ready.
324
00:11:10,467 --> 00:11:11,800
Check it out!
325
00:11:11,867 --> 00:11:13,767
-[Brianne] Whoa!
-Yeah!
326
00:11:13,767 --> 00:11:16,700
Oh, yeah. That is original,
right there.
327
00:11:16,767 --> 00:11:18,100
-[laughing]
-You can't buy
that look anymore.
328
00:11:18,166 --> 00:11:19,634
Oh my gosh.
329
00:11:19,634 --> 00:11:22,200
[Dan] I don't think it's
a natural color, either.
I think it was, like...
330
00:11:22,266 --> 00:11:23,967
-[Brianne laughs]
Somebody picked it.
-[Dan] Yeah, they picked it,
331
00:11:23,967 --> 00:11:25,567
and then smoked
by it for 30 years.
332
00:11:25,567 --> 00:11:28,200
I think there's a lot
of things that are sort of
ridiculous in this house,
333
00:11:28,266 --> 00:11:30,000
that we never changed
for one reason or another,
334
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:30,300
that we never changed
for one reason or another,
335
00:11:30,367 --> 00:11:33,467
but the problem is,
is then I would have
to try and fix it, so...
336
00:11:33,467 --> 00:11:34,967
-[Brianne] I mean...
-[Dan] Now that it's
not my problem,
337
00:11:34,967 --> 00:11:36,567
yeah, let's start
breaking stuff.
338
00:11:36,567 --> 00:11:38,467
-Yes!
-[Brianne] Oh my god!
339
00:11:41,266 --> 00:11:43,667
I can see how much they're
enjoying the demolition.
340
00:11:43,667 --> 00:11:46,066
Pulling out that weird
bookshelf thing,
341
00:11:46,066 --> 00:11:47,567
and then Brianne
and the fireplace,
342
00:11:47,567 --> 00:11:48,900
every brick that breaks away,
343
00:11:48,967 --> 00:11:50,100
she's getting more
and more excited,
344
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:51,467
and that's what I wanna see,
345
00:11:51,467 --> 00:11:54,100
because that means
we're doing something right.
346
00:11:54,100 --> 00:11:56,066
[Brianne] Look at this! Oh!
347
00:11:56,066 --> 00:11:58,300
[grunts] See how
satisfying that is?
348
00:11:58,367 --> 00:12:00,000
-So satisfying!
-[laughs]
349
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:00,500
-So satisfying!
-[laughs]
350
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:04,066
Anything else
you wanna smash next?
351
00:12:04,066 --> 00:12:05,867
-Let's get that kitchen out.
-[Jonathan laughs]
352
00:12:05,867 --> 00:12:08,600
-More smashing!
-[Brianne laughs]
353
00:12:08,667 --> 00:12:10,367
-[Dan] All right.
-[Jonathan] Let's go.
354
00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,266
[Jonathan] Dan and Brianne's
house was never suited
to their lifestyle,
355
00:12:16,266 --> 00:12:19,266
especially when it comes
to their closed-off,
dark kitchen.
356
00:12:19,266 --> 00:12:21,400
And this beast
of a range hood,
357
00:12:21,467 --> 00:12:23,400
it's gonna be the first to go.
358
00:12:23,467 --> 00:12:24,900
[Brianne] This is a really
big day for me.
359
00:12:24,967 --> 00:12:27,100
-[Brianne laughs]
-Let's put this over here.
360
00:12:27,100 --> 00:12:28,300
Look at it!
361
00:12:28,867 --> 00:12:30,066
Wow!
362
00:12:31,700 --> 00:12:34,300
I mean, just that,
changes so much.
363
00:12:34,367 --> 00:12:37,066
-I think we should
just get this all out.
-Let's do it.
364
00:12:43,600 --> 00:12:45,800
[laughing] Yes!
365
00:12:47,266 --> 00:12:49,667
[Brianne] I am shocked how
easy that came down!
366
00:12:49,667 --> 00:12:51,667
That was all because
you loosened it over there.
367
00:12:51,667 --> 00:12:53,266
-I mean, of course, right?
-I'm impressed.
368
00:12:53,266 --> 00:12:57,567
There is nothing
in this kitchen that
is adding any value.
369
00:12:57,567 --> 00:12:59,100
[Brianne] Oh my gosh!
370
00:12:59,100 --> 00:13:01,000
[Jonathan] There is
nothing in this kitchen
that can be saved.
371
00:13:01,000 --> 00:13:02,700
It all has to just go.
372
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,100
[Jonathan] There we go.
373
00:13:06,066 --> 00:13:08,200
[Jonathan] This is what
they needed to get out
of the way,
374
00:13:08,266 --> 00:13:09,800
so they could really
see the future.
375
00:13:09,867 --> 00:13:11,605
As you can see,
there are so many nails,
376
00:13:11,605 --> 00:13:12,100
As you can see,
there are so many nails,
377
00:13:12,100 --> 00:13:14,467
gas lines, other
electrical and whatnot,
378
00:13:14,467 --> 00:13:16,567
it's gonna start
to get very complex.
379
00:13:16,567 --> 00:13:18,867
I'm cool if you guys
wanna call it a day.
380
00:13:18,867 --> 00:13:20,166
Let us to the rest
of the dirty work.
381
00:13:20,166 --> 00:13:22,300
-I will.
-And I'll see you guys when
we have some options.
382
00:13:22,367 --> 00:13:24,100
-Nice job!
-[Brianne] Thank you!
383
00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:26,200
[Brianne] There has been
a lot of stress, and so,
384
00:13:26,266 --> 00:13:29,767
it's nice to come
take that stress out,
385
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:31,300
-so that, you know--
-Yeah, today was therapeutic.
386
00:13:31,367 --> 00:13:32,600
It was great.
387
00:13:41,767 --> 00:13:44,567
I have some
amazing inspiration
for Dan and Brianne.
388
00:13:44,567 --> 00:13:47,800
This is a house that
has a lot of style,
a lot of function,
389
00:13:47,867 --> 00:13:49,567
and every space has purpose.
390
00:13:49,567 --> 00:13:51,800
It's a beautiful house from
Brother Vs. Brother,
391
00:13:51,867 --> 00:13:54,266
and even though
it was Jonathan who
won the challenge...
392
00:13:54,266 --> 00:13:55,567
Yeah!
393
00:13:55,567 --> 00:13:57,066
...I'm not holding
it against him.
394
00:13:57,066 --> 00:13:58,200
Well, not too much.
395
00:13:58,200 --> 00:14:00,600
I want Dan and Brianne
to see the smart use of space.
396
00:14:00,667 --> 00:14:02,200
What are you expecting to see?
397
00:14:02,266 --> 00:14:04,767
Just something new
and updated, I'm excited.
398
00:14:04,767 --> 00:14:06,166
[Drew] This house is gorgeous.
399
00:14:06,166 --> 00:14:09,066
I will admit, Jonathan
did the renovation
on this, not me.
400
00:14:09,066 --> 00:14:10,100
-[Brianne laughs]
-[Dan] Oh, boy.
401
00:14:10,166 --> 00:14:11,605
-[Drew] So...
-We won't hold it against you.
402
00:14:11,605 --> 00:14:11,767
-[Drew] So...
-We won't hold it against you.
403
00:14:11,767 --> 00:14:13,066
[Drew] There's a little
bit of inspiration here
404
00:14:13,066 --> 00:14:14,100
that I think will
work for your house.
405
00:14:14,166 --> 00:14:15,467
[Brianne] I'm excited.
[Dan] Let's take a look.
406
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:17,900
[Brianne gasps]
407
00:14:17,967 --> 00:14:19,567
Wow!
408
00:14:19,567 --> 00:14:21,867
-This is just welcoming!
-[Drew] Mm-hmm.
409
00:14:21,867 --> 00:14:25,800
[Brianne] I love the feeling
you get when you walk in here.
410
00:14:25,867 --> 00:14:28,200
[Dan] It's very grand.
It's spectacular.
411
00:14:28,266 --> 00:14:29,734
[Drew] Well,
you know the thing,
412
00:14:29,734 --> 00:14:31,300
the living room is
actually a little smaller
than your living room.
413
00:14:31,367 --> 00:14:33,066
So if you feel
that this is grand,
414
00:14:33,066 --> 00:14:36,166
I mean, I think
we can do something
impressive for your house.
415
00:14:36,166 --> 00:14:38,100
That's maybe because
the fireplace only comes out
416
00:14:38,100 --> 00:14:39,266
ten inches from the wall.
417
00:14:39,266 --> 00:14:40,166
-That's right.
-Yeah.
418
00:14:40,166 --> 00:14:41,605
Taking away your old fireplace
419
00:14:41,605 --> 00:14:41,900
Taking away your old fireplace
420
00:14:41,900 --> 00:14:43,667
-will actually add about
600 square feet to your home.
-[Brianne laughs] I think so.
421
00:14:43,667 --> 00:14:45,567
That's very true.
422
00:14:45,567 --> 00:14:47,100
[Drew] What do you want
for furniture?
423
00:14:47,166 --> 00:14:48,700
Comfy? Cozy?
424
00:14:48,700 --> 00:14:49,867
-Something
a little more structured?
-[Dan] Just all pillows.
425
00:14:49,867 --> 00:14:51,166
[Brianne] No, I want this.
426
00:14:51,166 --> 00:14:52,266
I just want our living room
427
00:14:52,266 --> 00:14:53,767
to feel like
a comfortable place
428
00:14:53,767 --> 00:14:56,066
Yeah, that it's fun
and it's inviting,
429
00:14:56,066 --> 00:14:58,266
that it's not overly formal.
430
00:14:58,266 --> 00:15:00,567
Well, if you look at
this house here they have kids
431
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:03,166
so they want to make sure
that they're getting
lots of storage,
432
00:15:03,166 --> 00:15:06,166
but they still want it
to feel spacious,
and inviting, and comfortable.
433
00:15:06,166 --> 00:15:08,667
[Briannne]
Which is exactly what I think
we're looking to do.
434
00:15:08,667 --> 00:15:10,166
[Dan] Yeah, it's a great touch
435
00:15:10,166 --> 00:15:11,605
that you can just
put things away
and get it out of sight.
436
00:15:11,605 --> 00:15:12,200
that you can just
put things away
and get it out of sight.
437
00:15:12,266 --> 00:15:13,667
Well, you guys
had so much dead space,
438
00:15:13,667 --> 00:15:15,700
so I'm glad
that we're able to reconfigure
439
00:15:15,767 --> 00:15:17,367
to actually give you
a better flow.
440
00:15:17,367 --> 00:15:19,367
Come on in here
to the dining space.
441
00:15:19,367 --> 00:15:21,767
And you can see
this is a pretty massive
dining room.
442
00:15:21,767 --> 00:15:25,266
[Brianne] I would love
just seating for eight.
443
00:15:25,266 --> 00:15:27,567
It's a production every time
someone comes over,
444
00:15:27,567 --> 00:15:29,567
-and just having the size
-Yeah.
445
00:15:29,567 --> 00:15:32,000
to accommodate our, kind of,
standard number
would be great.
446
00:15:32,066 --> 00:15:34,000
I mean, I really like
the way that this is set up.
447
00:15:34,066 --> 00:15:37,166
I generally like a wood table
and I do like fabric chairs.
448
00:15:37,166 --> 00:15:39,200
The other thing
I really like in this space,
that I've noticed,
449
00:15:39,266 --> 00:15:40,867
is really the use
of mixed metals
450
00:15:40,867 --> 00:15:41,605
with the black here
451
00:15:41,605 --> 00:15:42,000
with the black here
452
00:15:42,066 --> 00:15:42,967
but then there's some brass
453
00:15:42,967 --> 00:15:44,266
-over there,
-Mmm-hmm.
454
00:15:44,266 --> 00:15:46,166
and there's just
a well-balanced combination.
455
00:15:46,166 --> 00:15:48,200
It doesn't look
too matchy-matchy,
just complimentary.
456
00:15:48,266 --> 00:15:50,166
Cool, well, would you like
to see a kitchen
457
00:15:50,166 --> 00:15:51,767
-that is ginormous?
-I would love to see
a kitchen.
458
00:15:51,767 --> 00:15:54,367
-Yeah.
-This is why Jonathan beat me
459
00:15:54,367 --> 00:15:55,900
on Brother Vs. Brother
this season.
460
00:15:56,900 --> 00:15:58,433
[Brianne] I can see why.
461
00:15:58,433 --> 00:16:01,100
[Drew] Yeah,
I mean, two islands,
this gorgeous big kitchen.
462
00:16:01,166 --> 00:16:02,867
It's stunning.
463
00:16:02,867 --> 00:16:05,367
Now, I'm not saying
we can put a kitchen this big
into your house,
464
00:16:05,367 --> 00:16:07,500
we want to make sure
we leave spaces
for other rooms,
465
00:16:07,567 --> 00:16:11,567
but a lot of the elements
within this kitchen, I think,
could work perfectly.
466
00:16:11,567 --> 00:16:11,605
-I mean,
we don't need bedrooms.
-[laughs]
467
00:16:11,605 --> 00:16:13,400
-I mean,
we don't need bedrooms.
-[laughs]
468
00:16:13,467 --> 00:16:15,767
Hey, you know what,
if you want the kids
to sleep together.
469
00:16:15,767 --> 00:16:18,767
-You know, if we just...
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
-If we pull out a drawer.
470
00:16:18,767 --> 00:16:22,667
I feel that overall,
with the aesthetic
as you can see,
471
00:16:22,667 --> 00:16:23,967
Jonathan was trying
to do something
that was maybe
472
00:16:23,967 --> 00:16:24,934
a bit more of a Spanish vibe
473
00:16:24,967 --> 00:16:26,000
-throughout the house.
-[Brianne] Mmm-hmm.
474
00:16:26,066 --> 00:16:27,767
I mean,
I really like, kind of,
475
00:16:27,767 --> 00:16:30,967
the wood cabinets
and the two-tone,
it's great.
476
00:16:30,967 --> 00:16:34,100
I like two-tone.
I don't know that I like
this two-tone.
477
00:16:34,166 --> 00:16:37,266
[Dan] Yeah, I think
sort of the timeless, modern,
478
00:16:37,266 --> 00:16:39,700
-you know, black and white,
kind of never go out of style.
-Sure.
479
00:16:39,767 --> 00:16:41,605
I even like
a different countertop
480
00:16:41,605 --> 00:16:43,166
I even like
a different countertop
481
00:16:43,166 --> 00:16:44,967
-between the two surfaces.
-Okay.
482
00:16:44,967 --> 00:16:46,567
[Drew] Do you like
a pop on the backsplash?
483
00:16:46,567 --> 00:16:47,900
[Brianne] I like a pop.
484
00:16:47,967 --> 00:16:50,100
I don't know that I like
this much pop.
485
00:16:50,100 --> 00:16:52,000
I kind of like
the seamless look
486
00:16:52,066 --> 00:16:53,567
with the slab backsplash
487
00:16:53,567 --> 00:16:54,567
where the countertops
488
00:16:54,567 --> 00:16:55,667
-is kind of the same.
-Yeah.
489
00:16:55,667 --> 00:16:56,967
-All the way up?
-Mmm-hmm, yeah.
490
00:16:56,967 --> 00:16:58,100
-Okay, yeah.
-I think that looks
really nice.
491
00:16:58,166 --> 00:16:59,767
-What else do you think?
-You know, one of the things,
492
00:16:59,767 --> 00:17:02,667
a pet peeve of mine
is just so much stuff
on the countertop.
493
00:17:02,667 --> 00:17:04,166
And so I would love
just storage
494
00:17:04,166 --> 00:17:05,867
to just kind of
tuck those away.
495
00:17:05,867 --> 00:17:08,100
Awesome, well,
I'll get all that information
to Jonathan,
496
00:17:08,100 --> 00:17:10,166
we'll come up with
some really good options
for you,
497
00:17:10,166 --> 00:17:11,605
-and then we'll go from there.
-Sounds great.
498
00:17:11,605 --> 00:17:11,700
-and then we'll go from there.
-Sounds great.
499
00:17:15,967 --> 00:17:17,400
[Jonathan]
We're finishing demo
500
00:17:17,467 --> 00:17:19,900
to show Dan and Brianne
their space completely open.
501
00:17:19,967 --> 00:17:21,100
The old footprint
of their home
502
00:17:21,100 --> 00:17:22,900
may have worked
for the previous owners
503
00:17:22,967 --> 00:17:24,500
but it didn't work for them.
504
00:17:24,567 --> 00:17:26,500
Now they'll finally get
to make it their own.
505
00:17:27,467 --> 00:17:28,467
[Dan] Let's go.
506
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,000
-Oh, my God.
-Wow.
507
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,467
-[Brianne scoffs]
-[Dan] Look how big it is.
508
00:17:34,467 --> 00:17:37,266
[Brianne] It's huge, right?
No, I mean, it's, it, wow.
509
00:17:39,467 --> 00:17:41,266
[Brianne] It's so open.
510
00:17:41,266 --> 00:17:43,367
-[Dan] Down to the studs.
-[Brianne] Look at this.
511
00:17:43,367 --> 00:17:45,100
-[Jonathan]
Doesn't it look good?
-[Dan] Very large.
512
00:17:45,100 --> 00:17:48,266
I mean, those walls
were just, you know, what,
to here, obviously.
513
00:17:48,266 --> 00:17:50,100
-You're going like this,
"It's calling me."
-Yeah.
514
00:17:50,166 --> 00:17:52,166
-It's calling me. It's just...
-It's drawing you
into the kitchen.
515
00:17:52,166 --> 00:17:54,600
[Dan] Yeah, I mean,
everything feels
so much bigger.
516
00:17:54,667 --> 00:17:56,467
[Drew]
It's just nice to be able
to open things up
517
00:17:56,467 --> 00:17:59,166
and start with, sort of,
a blank slate.
518
00:17:59,166 --> 00:18:00,367
Shall we talk options?
519
00:18:00,367 --> 00:18:01,767
-Let's do it.
-Let's talk options.
520
00:18:01,767 --> 00:18:03,900
Option one.
521
00:18:03,967 --> 00:18:06,100
We would keep the kitchen
in its location
522
00:18:06,166 --> 00:18:08,599
but expand it across,
giving you a kitchen
that's twice the size.
523
00:18:08,599 --> 00:18:09,800
but expand it across,
giving you a kitchen
that's twice the size.
524
00:18:09,867 --> 00:18:13,000
There would be room
for a massive island
with breakfast bar seating,
525
00:18:13,066 --> 00:18:15,100
and we'll ship the range
off to one side
526
00:18:15,166 --> 00:18:17,667
away from curious fingers.
527
00:18:17,667 --> 00:18:22,100
You'll have way better flow,
tons more cabinet storage,
and useable prep space.
528
00:18:22,166 --> 00:18:23,567
And, in addition to that,
529
00:18:23,567 --> 00:18:25,000
we'll build you
a walk-in pantry
530
00:18:25,066 --> 00:18:27,266
where your dining area
used to be.
531
00:18:27,266 --> 00:18:28,300
-[Brianne] Really?
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
532
00:18:28,367 --> 00:18:29,600
[Brianne] That's exciting.
533
00:18:29,667 --> 00:18:30,667
[Jonathan]
Your new dining area
534
00:18:30,667 --> 00:18:32,300
will be located
just off the kitchen
535
00:18:32,367 --> 00:18:34,100
because
removing the fireplaces
536
00:18:34,166 --> 00:18:36,467
will allow you
so much more usable space.
537
00:18:36,467 --> 00:18:38,599
We'll add a large table
that seats eight
538
00:18:38,599 --> 00:18:38,667
We'll add a large table
that seats eight
539
00:18:38,667 --> 00:18:40,967
and a sideboard
for more storage.
540
00:18:40,967 --> 00:18:43,467
The living room is the same
in both options.
541
00:18:43,467 --> 00:18:47,000
It's the area
where you gather the most
so it needs a serious update.
542
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,166
Now that we've lost
the mirror walls and shelving,
543
00:18:49,166 --> 00:18:52,567
we can do custom built-ins
on either side of your TV.
544
00:18:52,567 --> 00:18:56,300
And we'll give you a wall
of collapsible garden doors
easy to open
545
00:18:56,367 --> 00:18:59,667
to make an effortless flow
for that indoor-outdoor
entertaining.
546
00:18:59,667 --> 00:19:02,667
That sounds pretty amazing.
547
00:19:02,667 --> 00:19:05,000
I mean, that's a pretty
substantial kitchen.
548
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:07,567
I mean, you saw
how kind of cramped
549
00:19:07,567 --> 00:19:08,599
and how hard it was to come in
out of the garage,
550
00:19:08,599 --> 00:19:10,100
and how hard it was to come in
out of the garage,
551
00:19:10,100 --> 00:19:11,567
and it was just so disjointed,
and...
552
00:19:11,567 --> 00:19:13,166
I mean, and who doesn't love
a big island?
553
00:19:13,166 --> 00:19:15,166
I mean, I can just see
sitting there with the kids,
554
00:19:15,166 --> 00:19:18,066
-you know, holiday baking
or pizza night,
-Mmm-hmm.
555
00:19:18,066 --> 00:19:19,166
or whatever, right?
556
00:19:19,166 --> 00:19:20,900
-That's option one
-Okay.
557
00:19:20,967 --> 00:19:23,667
at $235,000,
558
00:19:23,667 --> 00:19:25,367
and we could have it done
in seven weeks.
559
00:19:25,367 --> 00:19:27,700
Nice. [laughs]
560
00:19:27,767 --> 00:19:31,900
Option two, however,
gives you the same
collapsible glass wall,
561
00:19:31,967 --> 00:19:33,567
beautiful hardwood floors,
562
00:19:33,567 --> 00:19:37,800
but we would be
completely flipping
the footprint of the home
563
00:19:37,867 --> 00:19:38,599
by taking out this bedroom
at the front.
564
00:19:38,599 --> 00:19:40,166
by taking out this bedroom
at the front.
565
00:19:40,166 --> 00:19:41,900
We'll flip the kitchen
to the front of the house
566
00:19:41,967 --> 00:19:44,000
where Jack's bedroom
currently is.
567
00:19:44,066 --> 00:19:48,066
You'll have a big island,
lots of breakfast bar seating,
tons of storage space,
568
00:19:48,066 --> 00:19:49,700
but no walk-in pantry.
569
00:19:49,767 --> 00:19:52,367
Don't worry,
I'm not gonna make Jack
sleep in the garage.
570
00:19:52,367 --> 00:19:55,000
We would build him
a brand new bedroom
at the back of the house
571
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,400
so all the bedrooms
are tucked away nicely.
572
00:19:57,467 --> 00:20:00,500
Your dining area would be
where you had it before,
just off the kitchen,
573
00:20:00,567 --> 00:20:03,867
with a large rectangular table
with seating for eight.
574
00:20:03,867 --> 00:20:05,367
Without the brick fireplaces,
575
00:20:05,367 --> 00:20:07,667
it'll be much better connected
to the new kitchen
576
00:20:07,667 --> 00:20:08,599
for easy entertaining.
577
00:20:08,599 --> 00:20:09,000
for easy entertaining.
578
00:20:09,066 --> 00:20:10,500
No dead zones.
579
00:20:10,567 --> 00:20:12,900
It's a lot of work
to flip the location
of a kitchen.
580
00:20:12,967 --> 00:20:14,800
You're running
all of your, you know,
581
00:20:14,867 --> 00:20:18,367
plumbing, electrical,
everything you need
a much longer distance.
582
00:20:18,367 --> 00:20:23,266
So option two
would max you out at $250,000.
583
00:20:23,266 --> 00:20:25,200
It would take
nine weeks to complete.
584
00:20:25,266 --> 00:20:26,700
It could be
worth it in the end,
585
00:20:26,767 --> 00:20:29,500
or it could be worth it
to have a kitchen
twice as big.
586
00:20:30,467 --> 00:20:32,767
-It's a hard choice.
-Yeah.
587
00:20:33,767 --> 00:20:35,900
What I like about both options
is, you know,
588
00:20:35,967 --> 00:20:38,599
we had this space was dead,
this space over here was dead,
589
00:20:38,599 --> 00:20:40,000
we had this space was dead,
this space over here was dead,
590
00:20:40,066 --> 00:20:41,900
and functionally
that didn't make
a lot of sense.
591
00:20:41,967 --> 00:20:44,367
So both really use
the space well
592
00:20:44,367 --> 00:20:46,567
-and recapture
some of that dead space
-Mmm-hmm.
593
00:20:46,567 --> 00:20:48,166
to make it more livable.
594
00:20:48,166 --> 00:20:50,166
They both sound beautiful
and they both sound amazing,
595
00:20:50,166 --> 00:20:54,567
but I think the function
in option two is superior,
perhaps,
596
00:20:54,567 --> 00:20:56,266
to the function
in option one is.
597
00:20:58,100 --> 00:20:59,100
It makes more sense.
598
00:20:59,166 --> 00:21:00,400
It seems like,
yes, it's more expensive,
599
00:21:00,467 --> 00:21:02,567
yes, it's gonna take longer,
600
00:21:02,567 --> 00:21:05,600
but I think ultimately,
like, we'll be happier
with how it ends up.
601
00:21:05,667 --> 00:21:07,166
[Brianne] What do you think?
602
00:21:07,166 --> 00:21:08,367
-Think...
-Two.
603
00:21:08,367 --> 00:21:08,599
Option two.
604
00:21:08,599 --> 00:21:09,800
Option two.
605
00:21:09,867 --> 00:21:11,266
-Okay, good.
-Okay, we're closing
the kitchen, great.
606
00:21:11,266 --> 00:21:13,100
-Let's do it.
-This is exciting though.
607
00:21:13,100 --> 00:21:16,266
I can already see, like,
that's just feels like
the kids wing over there.
608
00:21:16,266 --> 00:21:17,767
-It feels like
the bedroom wing.
-[Brianne] It does.
609
00:21:17,767 --> 00:21:19,600
-This is gonna be perfect.
-We're excited.
610
00:21:19,667 --> 00:21:22,166
This means you guys
are officially out
until it is done,
611
00:21:22,166 --> 00:21:25,567
and we'll see you back
in nine weeks.
612
00:21:25,567 --> 00:21:27,467
-Awesome, thank you.
-Yeah, all right, thank you.
613
00:21:27,467 --> 00:21:29,100
[Brianne] You know,
you can take things down
614
00:21:29,166 --> 00:21:30,700
and you can
make them beautiful,
615
00:21:30,767 --> 00:21:32,767
but changing
the house's function, to me,
616
00:21:32,767 --> 00:21:35,200
was really
the most important part
of this.
617
00:21:35,266 --> 00:21:37,667
Yeah, I think
moving the bedroom
is gonna be key
618
00:21:37,667 --> 00:21:38,599
so that there's kind of
wings on the house
and for sleeping in,
619
00:21:38,599 --> 00:21:41,000
so that there's kind of
wings on the house
and for sleeping in,
620
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:44,567
all the main function
of the living, cooking
is all kind of in the middle,
621
00:21:44,567 --> 00:21:46,467
but it's just gonna be
fantastic.
622
00:21:50,567 --> 00:21:51,800
Oh, my God.
623
00:21:51,867 --> 00:21:53,467
[Jonathan] Dan and Brianne
chose option two,
624
00:21:53,467 --> 00:21:55,767
which means
the kitchen is moving
to the front of the house
625
00:21:55,767 --> 00:21:58,300
and Jack's room
will be relocated to the back.
626
00:22:00,667 --> 00:22:02,166
I have a question
for you guys.
627
00:22:02,166 --> 00:22:03,667
What's our plan
with the fireplace here?
628
00:22:03,667 --> 00:22:05,200
How are we gonna
take this beast down?
629
00:22:06,667 --> 00:22:08,599
The issue we have is
[chuckles] the way the house
was originally built.
630
00:22:08,599 --> 00:22:10,667
The issue we have is
[chuckles] the way the house
was originally built.
631
00:22:10,667 --> 00:22:14,600
They used the fireplace
to support the load
of a lot of the roof
632
00:22:14,667 --> 00:22:16,367
and of the ceiling joist,
633
00:22:16,367 --> 00:22:18,867
-Yeah.
-so there is quite a bit
of weight sitting right here.
634
00:22:18,867 --> 00:22:21,000
Yeah, so we got short it
a little bit on this side,
635
00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:22,100
a little bit on this side,
636
00:22:22,166 --> 00:22:24,367
and a little bit
into the old kitchen area.
637
00:22:24,367 --> 00:22:25,867
Which isn't gonna be,
you know,
638
00:22:25,867 --> 00:22:27,367
a real issue
as far as structure
639
00:22:27,367 --> 00:22:28,567
because we were already
gonna do
640
00:22:28,567 --> 00:22:29,667
-a new beam across here.
-Yeah.
641
00:22:29,667 --> 00:22:31,367
-We have to extend this beam
-Yeah.
642
00:22:31,367 --> 00:22:32,367
right to the back wall
643
00:22:32,367 --> 00:22:33,500
-of the existing bedroom,
-Right.
644
00:22:33,567 --> 00:22:35,667
but it means
it's a pretty substantial beam
645
00:22:35,667 --> 00:22:38,599
-Yeah.
-but it's also gonna require
big footings.
646
00:22:38,599 --> 00:22:38,600
-Yeah.
-but it's also gonna require
big footings.
647
00:22:38,667 --> 00:22:40,000
Yeah.
648
00:22:40,066 --> 00:22:42,266
I'm wondering if,
obviously putting in
this new beam
649
00:22:42,266 --> 00:22:43,867
we can choose what height
we want to do it at,
650
00:22:43,867 --> 00:22:45,500
do we want to push it
all the way up
651
00:22:45,567 --> 00:22:48,500
so that it's flush
from the entry
right into the main...
652
00:22:48,567 --> 00:22:50,967
Oh, absolutely.
I mean, let's look at
the cost difference.
653
00:22:50,967 --> 00:22:53,967
But if we can have
an inline beam to go flush,
absolutely.
654
00:22:53,967 --> 00:22:55,266
Why don't we do this?
655
00:22:55,266 --> 00:22:56,700
While you guys finish
pulling some of this back,
656
00:22:56,767 --> 00:22:57,900
I'm gonna poke a hole
over here.
657
00:22:59,166 --> 00:23:01,066
[Drew] This house
was built in 1953,
658
00:23:01,066 --> 00:23:03,000
and we already knew
that there was
a vent in the ceiling
659
00:23:03,066 --> 00:23:04,266
of the front bedroom.
660
00:23:04,266 --> 00:23:06,367
Are there any issues
661
00:23:06,367 --> 00:23:08,500
-that could freak out
your child while they sleep?
-I'm sorry, I can't hear you.
662
00:23:08,567 --> 00:23:08,599
-[Brianne] Can't hear you.
-This is what nightmares
are made of.
663
00:23:08,599 --> 00:23:10,767
-[Brianne] Can't hear you.
-This is what nightmares
are made of.
664
00:23:10,767 --> 00:23:12,867
[Jonathan] Who knows
what other kind of HVAC
we're gonna find,
665
00:23:12,867 --> 00:23:15,367
or electrical, or gas lines?
666
00:23:15,367 --> 00:23:18,000
You name it, it could be
thousands of dollars
667
00:23:18,066 --> 00:23:19,967
to raise
the height of this ceiling
at the front entry.
668
00:23:19,967 --> 00:23:21,467
I'm a little afraid.
669
00:23:22,867 --> 00:23:26,800
-[Drew] Huh?
-What if I find something
and we can't raise this?
670
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:31,066
Drew, can you pull
the insulation out for me?
671
00:23:31,066 --> 00:23:32,066
No, I'm good over here.
672
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:35,066
[exclaiming in disgust]
673
00:23:35,967 --> 00:23:37,100
-Puh.
-Puh.
674
00:23:37,166 --> 00:23:38,599
All right. Oh, my gosh.
675
00:23:38,599 --> 00:23:39,567
All right. Oh, my gosh.
676
00:23:40,300 --> 00:23:40,867
What is happening here?
677
00:23:44,266 --> 00:23:46,600
All right. Oh, my gosh.
678
00:23:47,467 --> 00:23:48,867
There's nothing.
679
00:23:48,867 --> 00:23:50,100
-It's not even
sheet on top of here.
-[Adam] We're good? Yeah?
680
00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:52,000
This is wide open.
681
00:23:52,066 --> 00:23:55,000
I guarantee
it was one of those things
like back in the day
682
00:23:55,066 --> 00:23:56,900
where they were like,
"No, feel like it's, like,
683
00:23:56,967 --> 00:23:58,133
the tunnel that
you're coming through
684
00:23:58,166 --> 00:23:59,367
-when you get
to your living room
-[Adam] Yeah.
685
00:23:59,367 --> 00:24:00,667
and open up
to the living room."
686
00:24:00,667 --> 00:24:02,066
All right,
we'll take all this up.
687
00:24:02,066 --> 00:24:04,100
They're gonna love
their new front entry.
688
00:24:08,100 --> 00:24:12,400
No matter how much grease
you put in those tracks,
it will never function.
689
00:24:12,467 --> 00:24:12,671
These doors
are the bane of my existence,
690
00:24:12,671 --> 00:24:14,500
These doors
are the bane of my existence,
691
00:24:14,567 --> 00:24:16,266
and I cannot,
for the life of me,
692
00:24:16,266 --> 00:24:18,967
source new doors
to replace this
that will get here in time.
693
00:24:18,967 --> 00:24:22,266
-Everything is, like,
a two plus month wait.
-Do not say that.
694
00:24:22,767 --> 00:24:24,667
You have one job.
695
00:24:24,667 --> 00:24:27,867
-Oh, one job?
-One job is to find the...
696
00:24:27,867 --> 00:24:30,700
There's no way,
if we finish all of this,
made it beautiful,
697
00:24:30,767 --> 00:24:33,700
and we didn't
change these doors out
they would not be happy.
698
00:24:33,767 --> 00:24:36,200
The earliest I can get doors
is three months.
699
00:24:36,266 --> 00:24:37,767
There's got to be a way.
700
00:24:37,767 --> 00:24:40,567
-I will keep looking.
-I believe in you.
701
00:24:40,567 --> 00:24:42,166
I think you can do this.
702
00:24:42,166 --> 00:24:42,671
I'm gonna continue
with the ridiculously slow
brick removal.
703
00:24:42,671 --> 00:24:45,867
I'm gonna continue
with the ridiculously slow
brick removal.
704
00:24:45,867 --> 00:24:47,166
It's fine, leave this with me.
705
00:24:47,166 --> 00:24:48,266
I'll go back
to the drawing board.
706
00:24:48,266 --> 00:24:49,467
I will figure something out.
707
00:24:49,467 --> 00:24:51,467
We are not leaving this house
with a giant hole
708
00:24:51,467 --> 00:24:52,400
in the back
of the living room.
709
00:24:52,467 --> 00:24:54,100
[whispering] One job.
710
00:24:54,100 --> 00:24:55,567
[chuckling]
You and your one job.
711
00:24:57,567 --> 00:25:00,667
[Drew]
The fireplace is a beast
that needs to be put to rest.
712
00:25:00,667 --> 00:25:03,700
[Jonathan] We've done
some pretty massive fireplaces
over the years.
713
00:25:04,467 --> 00:25:06,066
This could take the cake.
714
00:25:18,166 --> 00:25:22,100
[Jonathan] Our fireplace
is now completely gone.
It was so bulky.
715
00:25:22,166 --> 00:25:24,166
We've given them back
all the space
716
00:25:24,166 --> 00:25:26,166
that they can use
for living in.
717
00:25:26,166 --> 00:25:30,467
So, our next step is to create
two very large footings.
718
00:25:30,467 --> 00:25:33,867
This involves some rebar
and a lot of concrete.
719
00:25:35,300 --> 00:25:37,600
Once it sets,
these footings will be
the foundation
720
00:25:37,667 --> 00:25:39,867
to hold up our new
massive support beam.
721
00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:42,671
While we wait
for our concrete to cure,
722
00:25:42,671 --> 00:25:44,367
While we wait
for our concrete to cure,
723
00:25:44,367 --> 00:25:46,467
I'll be resizing the windows
at the front of the house
724
00:25:46,467 --> 00:25:50,200
to accommodate
the run of cabinets
underneath.
725
00:25:50,266 --> 00:25:53,600
And at the back of the house
the old kitchen space
will become a new bedroom.
726
00:25:55,400 --> 00:25:58,000
I don't know
who is gonna be lucky
getting the big room,
727
00:25:58,000 --> 00:25:59,100
Jack or Jilly,
728
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:01,567
but this is gonna be
an incredible space.
729
00:26:01,567 --> 00:26:03,367
Do they need direct access
to the garage
730
00:26:03,367 --> 00:26:04,767
or shall we move
that door as well?
731
00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:07,400
-Definitely
move the door. [laughs]
-Well, I think both the kids
732
00:26:07,467 --> 00:26:10,400
-have nice cars, so...
-Yeah, those little, like,
tiny jeeps
733
00:26:10,467 --> 00:26:11,767
that you drive around.
734
00:26:11,767 --> 00:26:12,671
Access to the garage
didn't work
735
00:26:12,671 --> 00:26:13,266
Access to the garage
didn't work
736
00:26:13,266 --> 00:26:15,100
when this space was a kitchen
737
00:26:15,100 --> 00:26:16,900
and it definitely won't work
in a bedroom,
738
00:26:16,967 --> 00:26:19,100
but we can easily reposition
to the other side.
739
00:26:20,266 --> 00:26:22,667
What I love about
this new bedroom configuration
740
00:26:22,667 --> 00:26:25,700
is that we're gonna completely
transform the living space,
741
00:26:25,767 --> 00:26:27,900
allowing the center footprint
of our design
742
00:26:27,967 --> 00:26:29,266
to be the hub of the home.
743
00:26:34,500 --> 00:26:36,400
[Drew] Dan and Brianne's
overall design style
744
00:26:36,467 --> 00:26:39,500
is comfortable,
casual, timeless.
745
00:26:39,567 --> 00:26:41,200
Johnathan and I
need to find the right pieces
746
00:26:41,266 --> 00:26:42,567
to go with their style
747
00:26:42,567 --> 00:26:42,671
and put their own
personal stamp on this home.
748
00:26:42,671 --> 00:26:44,767
and put their own
personal stamp on this home.
749
00:26:44,767 --> 00:26:46,767
Couple of samples
for furniture pieces.
750
00:26:46,767 --> 00:26:48,400
I mean, they love
that Californian vibe.
751
00:26:48,467 --> 00:26:50,467
Brianne just wants something
that does feel updated.
752
00:26:50,467 --> 00:26:51,567
They love wood tones,
753
00:26:51,567 --> 00:26:53,100
so if you want to do
some wood cabinets
754
00:26:53,166 --> 00:26:54,200
-that would be nice.
-Yeah.
755
00:26:54,266 --> 00:26:55,266
He likes black and white.
756
00:26:55,266 --> 00:26:58,200
If were to go... This is nice.
757
00:26:58,266 --> 00:27:00,300
-I think they would do,
like, a black.
-Yes.
758
00:27:01,166 --> 00:27:02,533
-Maybe...
-That's the one.
759
00:27:04,266 --> 00:27:06,767
And you know what?
Maybe a thin profile
or something like this?
760
00:27:06,767 --> 00:27:08,567
[Jonathan] Nice, nice.
I like the look of this.
761
00:27:08,567 --> 00:27:11,800
And then for flooring
I actually have a sample
that would be perfect.
762
00:27:11,867 --> 00:27:12,671
Something not too light,
763
00:27:12,671 --> 00:27:13,266
Something not too light,
764
00:27:13,266 --> 00:27:15,100
-not too dark.
-Oh, look at that.
765
00:27:15,100 --> 00:27:18,367
-Just right.
-In this gorgeous
natural tone.
766
00:27:18,367 --> 00:27:21,400
Well, just seeing that
flow through the whole space
is gonna look amazing.
767
00:27:21,467 --> 00:27:24,467
So, if we were to do
black and white countertops...
768
00:27:24,467 --> 00:27:25,600
-Yeah.
-Grab those.
769
00:27:28,266 --> 00:27:29,600
-Use this.
-Mmm-hmm.
770
00:27:31,767 --> 00:27:33,667
But the black, actually, like,
771
00:27:33,667 --> 00:27:36,166
-the soapstone
has a lighter tone to it
-Yeah, less veining.
772
00:27:36,166 --> 00:27:37,100
so that's good.
773
00:27:37,100 --> 00:27:38,300
Hardware,
what do we want to do?
774
00:27:38,367 --> 00:27:40,266
Do we want to do
bigger, smaller?
775
00:27:40,266 --> 00:27:42,166
We're doing
a low-profile shaker
776
00:27:42,166 --> 00:27:42,671
so do we want to go like that
or like that?
777
00:27:42,671 --> 00:27:45,867
so do we want to go like that
or like that?
778
00:27:47,066 --> 00:27:48,467
[snickers]
779
00:27:48,467 --> 00:27:50,600
I mean, this is beautiful
for the kitchen,
780
00:27:50,667 --> 00:27:52,867
but for the living room
they do want to bring
pops of color into it.
781
00:27:52,867 --> 00:27:54,967
That's nice. Not that side.
782
00:27:54,967 --> 00:27:57,266
Oh, yeah,
just something like that
would be kind of nice.
783
00:27:57,266 --> 00:28:00,266
Maybe this mossy green
as well? Yeah.
784
00:28:00,266 --> 00:28:01,700
Okay, I love it.
785
00:28:01,767 --> 00:28:03,266
They'll have the sight lines,
786
00:28:03,266 --> 00:28:04,867
-they'll have
that beautiful style.
-They're gonna have
787
00:28:04,867 --> 00:28:06,600
that Californian feel
that they're looking for.
788
00:28:06,667 --> 00:28:09,300
There's only one more thing
that we're missing.
789
00:28:09,367 --> 00:28:11,467
[groans] Okay, good.
All right, I'm out.
790
00:28:11,467 --> 00:28:12,671
If that lid
comes off of there.
791
00:28:12,671 --> 00:28:13,400
If that lid
comes off of there.
792
00:28:24,567 --> 00:28:25,700
[Jonathan]
Dan and Brianne's house
793
00:28:25,767 --> 00:28:29,066
[laughing]
is a little beat up right now.
794
00:28:29,066 --> 00:28:32,367
We've got
the ceilings ripped apart,
the floor is ripped open,
795
00:28:32,367 --> 00:28:36,567
but we're making way
for the biggest beam
I've put in this year.
796
00:28:36,567 --> 00:28:38,867
All right, hold up there
one sec.
797
00:28:38,867 --> 00:28:41,367
I'm actually having,
like, a little bit
of a flashback moment
798
00:28:41,367 --> 00:28:42,671
because we don't do
these kind of beams
all the time anymore
799
00:28:42,671 --> 00:28:45,700
because we don't do
these kind of beams
all the time anymore
800
00:28:45,767 --> 00:28:47,100
-because we've got
all the different,
-LVL.
801
00:28:47,100 --> 00:28:48,166
yeah, LVLs,
802
00:28:48,166 --> 00:28:49,467
and we've got all
the different laminated beams,
803
00:28:49,467 --> 00:28:51,400
but you can't get them.
804
00:28:51,467 --> 00:28:52,367
You can't get 'em.
805
00:28:52,367 --> 00:28:53,300
It's so backed up.
806
00:28:53,367 --> 00:28:54,500
-I'm glad we're...
-Four months out, yeah.
807
00:28:54,567 --> 00:28:56,100
Yeah, we wait on this project
for four months
808
00:28:56,166 --> 00:28:57,567
-Yeah.
-or we go old school.
809
00:28:57,567 --> 00:29:00,100
Fortunately, we've got
a massive amount of space
up there
810
00:29:00,100 --> 00:29:03,100
-so we can put something in
that's much bigger,
-Yeah.
811
00:29:03,166 --> 00:29:06,000
but it's definitely
a 15 man job
812
00:29:06,066 --> 00:29:07,567
-[laughs]
-to get it up there.
813
00:29:07,567 --> 00:29:08,767
It's just a lot of work.
814
00:29:08,767 --> 00:29:11,000
You need more people,
you need the lifts,
815
00:29:11,066 --> 00:29:12,671
but it's actually
a little bit of a savings
over an engineered beam.
816
00:29:12,671 --> 00:29:14,066
but it's actually
a little bit of a savings
over an engineered beam.
817
00:29:15,767 --> 00:29:17,500
-It's a race.
-[laughs]
818
00:29:17,567 --> 00:29:20,567
Move faster. One arm. What?
819
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:24,600
-This is like the eighth
wonder of the world,
-Yeah.
820
00:29:24,667 --> 00:29:26,100
-this thing is so massive.
-Yeah.
821
00:29:26,100 --> 00:29:27,467
[Jonathan] Don't let it
slide down on you.
822
00:29:28,900 --> 00:29:30,433
This is
a little bit stressful.
823
00:29:30,467 --> 00:29:33,867
In order to slide it in
to the engineered brace
that we have on that side
824
00:29:33,867 --> 00:29:35,467
we have to move
the whole beam,
825
00:29:35,467 --> 00:29:36,667
but the beam weighs so much,
826
00:29:36,667 --> 00:29:38,000
if all of a sudden
it starts sliding this way
827
00:29:38,767 --> 00:29:40,100
not good, so...
828
00:29:40,667 --> 00:29:41,467
Yeah, yeah.
829
00:29:42,567 --> 00:29:42,671
One, two, three.
830
00:29:42,671 --> 00:29:45,266
One, two, three.
831
00:29:45,266 --> 00:29:46,100
-[Jonathan] Oh.
-I think we'll move down.
832
00:29:51,266 --> 00:29:53,967
One, two, three.
833
00:29:53,967 --> 00:29:55,867
-[Jonathan] Oh.
-I think we'll move down.
834
00:29:55,867 --> 00:29:58,033
Some of it's like
the heavy grunt work,
835
00:29:58,033 --> 00:29:59,667
like, ah, lifting it up,
cranking it up,
836
00:29:59,734 --> 00:30:03,300
but then we also need
the precision person
who can line it up,
837
00:30:03,367 --> 00:30:05,734
and slot it right in there,
and tell us when to stop.
838
00:30:07,200 --> 00:30:09,667
There we go. One, two, three.
839
00:30:09,667 --> 00:30:11,567
-Push.
-We're good, we're good.
840
00:30:11,567 --> 00:30:12,600
-[Jonathan] It went in?
-Yeah.
841
00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:18,166
There we go, all right.
842
00:30:18,166 --> 00:30:18,536
[Jonathan] One, two, three.
843
00:30:18,536 --> 00:30:19,300
[Jonathan] One, two, three.
844
00:30:19,367 --> 00:30:23,166
-That's it.
-[Jonathan] Right there? Ahh!
845
00:30:23,166 --> 00:30:25,266
Oh, my gosh,
what a difference
this is gonna make.
846
00:30:25,266 --> 00:30:28,166
-Yes, sir.
-It's gonna beautifully level
the whole way through.
847
00:30:28,166 --> 00:30:30,467
Soon as you
come in the front doors,
clean and smooth.
848
00:30:30,467 --> 00:30:32,834
Yeah, it's gonna
open up the space
ridiculously.
849
00:30:32,834 --> 00:30:33,867
It's amazing.
850
00:30:33,867 --> 00:30:35,166
-All right, good work.
-All right, man.
851
00:30:42,166 --> 00:30:44,867
[Jonathan] What used to be
a regular old bedroom window,
852
00:30:44,934 --> 00:30:46,934
with all the grid
and everything
closing off the light,
853
00:30:46,934 --> 00:30:48,536
is now gonna be
a beautiful big
kitchen window.
854
00:30:48,536 --> 00:30:50,200
is now gonna be
a beautiful big
kitchen window.
855
00:30:50,266 --> 00:30:52,066
-Watch the petunias.
-[chuckles]
856
00:30:52,066 --> 00:30:53,867
[Jonathan]
And we wanted something
they could crack open
857
00:30:53,934 --> 00:30:56,166
if they want
to air out the kitchen,
858
00:30:56,166 --> 00:30:58,667
but also something
that's just gonna let in
as much light as possible,
859
00:30:58,734 --> 00:31:00,567
and this window is perfect.
860
00:31:00,567 --> 00:31:03,133
Now, that is a good looking
kitchen window.
861
00:31:06,066 --> 00:31:08,367
[Jonathan]
Now that we've made a bedroom
where the kitchen used to be,
862
00:31:08,367 --> 00:31:11,834
we have to move
the garage door
out of that area.
863
00:31:11,834 --> 00:31:13,467
The garage door is actually
a pretty good shape.
864
00:31:13,467 --> 00:31:15,400
We can use the jam,
we can use the door.
865
00:31:15,467 --> 00:31:17,166
We'll just put on
some new hinges
and hardware
866
00:31:17,166 --> 00:31:18,166
and it'll look great.
867
00:31:18,867 --> 00:31:20,467
Look at that.,
868
00:31:26,567 --> 00:31:28,867
[Jonathan] Dan and Brianne
have a healthy budget
for this house,
869
00:31:28,934 --> 00:31:31,567
which is good
because a lot of it
is getting eaten up
870
00:31:31,567 --> 00:31:32,734
by things behind the walls.
871
00:31:34,100 --> 00:31:35,867
Moving the kitchen
to the front of the house
872
00:31:35,867 --> 00:31:38,767
means that not only do we have
to move all the plumbing
873
00:31:38,767 --> 00:31:41,033
but we also have
to rewire the electrical.
874
00:31:44,133 --> 00:31:46,567
It's a lot of work
and a big chunk
of their budget,
875
00:31:46,567 --> 00:31:48,536
but they can rest easy
knowing that everything
is upgraded to today's code.
876
00:31:48,536 --> 00:31:50,166
but they can rest easy
knowing that everything
is upgraded to today's code.
877
00:31:54,467 --> 00:31:56,667
It took the strength
of Hercules
878
00:31:56,667 --> 00:31:59,166
to open
those old sliding doors.
879
00:31:59,166 --> 00:32:00,333
[groans]
880
00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,266
[Jonathan] That will not be
an issue anymore
881
00:32:03,266 --> 00:32:06,667
because this wall
of brand new collapsible doors
882
00:32:06,667 --> 00:32:08,467
is smooth as butter.
883
00:32:08,467 --> 00:32:10,567
[Drew] When I first started
sourcing these doors,
884
00:32:10,567 --> 00:32:12,200
the delay was gonna be months,
885
00:32:12,266 --> 00:32:15,000
but when another customer
cancelled at the last minute
886
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:17,867
I was able to pull a favor
and our supplier snuck us in.
887
00:32:17,934 --> 00:32:18,536
So, phew, big sigh of relief.
888
00:32:18,536 --> 00:32:19,667
So, phew, big sigh of relief.
889
00:32:21,867 --> 00:32:23,133
[Jonathan] There's so much
that's happening here
890
00:32:23,133 --> 00:32:25,166
and a lot of stuff
structurally that we had to do
891
00:32:25,166 --> 00:32:28,266
in order to get them
this clean modernized layout,
892
00:32:28,266 --> 00:32:30,667
but already looking in here
it looks fantastic.
893
00:32:32,467 --> 00:32:34,834
Dan and Brianne's old floors
had huge gaps
894
00:32:34,834 --> 00:32:37,100
and were uneven trip hazards.
895
00:32:37,100 --> 00:32:40,967
Now we're making sure
that everything will be
perfectly seamless throughout.
896
00:32:40,967 --> 00:32:44,100
Their new floors are gonna
tie the space together
beautifully.
897
00:32:46,200 --> 00:32:47,967
-How's it going?
-[chuckles]
898
00:32:47,967 --> 00:32:48,536
This is something
that Dan and Brianne
were never able to do,
899
00:32:48,536 --> 00:32:49,834
This is something
that Dan and Brianne
were never able to do,
900
00:32:49,834 --> 00:32:51,367
-a quick open.
-Yeah.
901
00:32:51,367 --> 00:32:53,867
Ha-ha!
It was like breaking a sweat
trying to open the door.
902
00:32:53,934 --> 00:32:55,667
Can you pop
that whole side open?
903
00:32:55,734 --> 00:32:57,166
-Do you want to see it?
-Yeah, let's take a look.
904
00:32:57,166 --> 00:33:00,767
This is
Dan and Brianne's dream.
905
00:33:00,834 --> 00:33:04,300
That is everything
that this place
was missing before
906
00:33:04,367 --> 00:33:07,200
because they did
all this work on the backyard
907
00:33:07,266 --> 00:33:09,266
and then you couldn't
really enjoy it.
908
00:33:09,266 --> 00:33:12,033
This will be perfect
for indoor-outdoor
entertaining.
909
00:33:12,033 --> 00:33:14,834
It's great. Open that side,
open this side, the flow out.
910
00:33:14,834 --> 00:33:17,166
Everything about this project
is transforming the home.
911
00:33:17,166 --> 00:33:18,536
This is gonna be incredible.
912
00:33:18,536 --> 00:33:18,867
This is gonna be incredible.
913
00:33:18,934 --> 00:33:20,500
And then, you know,
we'll clean all this up
914
00:33:20,567 --> 00:33:22,166
so it'll look like
this door was always here.
915
00:33:22,166 --> 00:33:23,967
-Yeah,
I'm gonna close the door
-All right.
916
00:33:23,967 --> 00:33:25,934
-so you don't bring
your mess inside.
-[chuckles]
917
00:33:26,734 --> 00:33:28,467
-Bye bye.
-[chuckles]
918
00:33:35,166 --> 00:33:37,133
[Jonathan] We're near the end
of our nine week timeline
919
00:33:37,133 --> 00:33:38,767
and we're making
good progress.
920
00:33:38,834 --> 00:33:41,567
Ooh, Dan and Brianne's house
is looking pretty good.
921
00:33:41,567 --> 00:33:44,967
[Jonathan] All our built-ins
and kitchen cabinets
are coming together.
922
00:33:44,967 --> 00:33:48,500
Now that drywall is done,
we're giving everything
a fresh coat of paint,
923
00:33:48,567 --> 00:33:49,667
and outside
924
00:33:49,734 --> 00:33:51,266
our kitchen cabinets
and backsplash
925
00:33:51,266 --> 00:33:52,734
are being custom cut to fit.
926
00:33:54,734 --> 00:33:56,767
Their new island is so massive
927
00:33:56,767 --> 00:34:00,500
we need to join
two slabs together
for the countertop.
928
00:34:00,567 --> 00:34:03,066
This new kitchen
will definitely become
the hub of the home.
929
00:34:05,467 --> 00:34:06,900
The living room,
930
00:34:06,900 --> 00:34:08,767
where they spend
most of the time together
as a family,
931
00:34:08,767 --> 00:34:11,266
ties in with the wood tones
of the kitchen.
932
00:34:11,266 --> 00:34:13,767
Before,
with the mirrored backings
933
00:34:13,767 --> 00:34:15,567
on the shelves,
it just felt tired.
934
00:34:15,567 --> 00:34:18,536
Everything of weirdnessness
is gone.
935
00:34:18,536 --> 00:34:18,567
Everything of weirdnessness
is gone.
936
00:34:18,567 --> 00:34:21,734
-Well, almost, anyway.
We're still here.
-Oh.
937
00:34:21,734 --> 00:34:24,767
I feel like
the TV's gonna take up
most of that space.
938
00:34:24,767 --> 00:34:27,367
Our chance
to do something interesting
with decor is here.
939
00:34:27,367 --> 00:34:31,967
-The sconces are gonna add
a little razzamatazz.
-Ooh, fancy.
940
00:34:31,967 --> 00:34:34,133
-Yeah.
-I think that the style
of those lights
941
00:34:34,133 --> 00:34:36,367
is so in line with
what Dan and Brianne want.
942
00:34:36,367 --> 00:34:38,133
Much better than
the old mirrors.
943
00:34:38,133 --> 00:34:39,867
You'll be back
to do touchups though
944
00:34:39,934 --> 00:34:42,266
because we still have
to paint these built-ins
a little bit more
945
00:34:42,266 --> 00:34:43,400
-up here.
-Yes.
946
00:34:43,467 --> 00:34:44,667
-I will help with that.
-Okay, good.
947
00:34:58,867 --> 00:35:00,467
[Jonathan] Dan and Brianne
have lived in this home
948
00:35:00,467 --> 00:35:01,567
for seven years,
949
00:35:01,567 --> 00:35:03,266
and even though
they saw potential,
950
00:35:03,266 --> 00:35:05,133
they were kind of busy
raising two kids.
951
00:35:05,133 --> 00:35:06,767
While we were happy to take
952
00:35:06,767 --> 00:35:07,967
the renovation
off their plate,
953
00:35:07,967 --> 00:35:10,834
now all they have to do is
move back in and enjoy.
954
00:35:12,266 --> 00:35:13,467
Why am I holding this
on my head?
955
00:35:13,467 --> 00:35:14,500
[chuckles]
956
00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:17,200
How cute are these photos?
957
00:35:18,133 --> 00:35:18,536
How cute is that setup?
958
00:35:18,536 --> 00:35:19,767
How cute is that setup?
959
00:35:19,767 --> 00:35:21,467
I mean,
it has the right depth
960
00:35:21,467 --> 00:35:23,300
for a closet
to be functional, right?
961
00:35:23,367 --> 00:35:24,400
Mmm.
962
00:35:24,467 --> 00:35:25,567
We actually got
the best of both worlds.
963
00:35:25,567 --> 00:35:27,467
We got a rod in there,
964
00:35:27,467 --> 00:35:29,133
and we got hooks
all the way around.
965
00:35:29,133 --> 00:35:31,834
I mean, what else
could you squeeze in?
966
00:35:31,834 --> 00:35:34,266
This is full of function,
full of style.
967
00:35:34,266 --> 00:35:35,934
They have a great dining area.
968
00:35:35,934 --> 00:35:38,934
I think the family phots are
just that piece de resistance.
969
00:35:38,934 --> 00:35:41,166
-Full of feng shui as well.
-Mmm.
970
00:35:41,166 --> 00:35:43,000
It's not often
you can get the mud room
971
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,066
right next to the dining table
and it feels right.
972
00:35:45,066 --> 00:35:46,734
I think we should just go get
Dan and Brianne.
973
00:35:46,734 --> 00:35:47,600
[Jonathan] All right.
974
00:35:54,500 --> 00:35:56,667
[Brianne] I just...
I'm so excited.
975
00:35:56,667 --> 00:35:57,834
Giddy with excitement.
976
00:35:57,834 --> 00:35:58,867
-[screams] Ah!
-Yeah.
977
00:35:58,934 --> 00:36:00,166
Look.
There's a new window already.
978
00:36:00,166 --> 00:36:02,100
-I mean...
-We have a window!
979
00:36:02,100 --> 00:36:03,934
[Brianne] Oh, my goodness,
I can't wait.
980
00:36:03,934 --> 00:36:05,667
-Here we go.
-After you. Come on in.
981
00:36:05,667 --> 00:36:06,767
[Dan] This is all for you.
982
00:36:08,500 --> 00:36:09,667
Wow!
983
00:36:09,667 --> 00:36:12,500
It doesn't even look
like the same house.
984
00:36:12,567 --> 00:36:13,867
[Jonathan] Is that
a good thing?
985
00:36:13,867 --> 00:36:15,300
Oh, it's a great thing!
986
00:36:19,734 --> 00:36:21,000
Wow!
987
00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,767
It doesn't even look
like the same house.
988
00:36:23,834 --> 00:36:24,867
[Jonathan] Is that
a good thing?
989
00:36:24,934 --> 00:36:27,000
[Brianne]
Oh, it's a great thing!
990
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:29,367
It literally feels like we did
an addition. It feels massive.
991
00:36:29,367 --> 00:36:32,133
[Brianne] It feels so much
bigger than it did before.
992
00:36:32,133 --> 00:36:34,467
The sightlines, you know,
you can just see everything
993
00:36:34,467 --> 00:36:35,934
-when you walk in.
-[Dan] Yeah.
994
00:36:35,934 --> 00:36:38,266
I can just imagine, like,
being here and, like,
995
00:36:38,333 --> 00:36:39,367
talking to the kids,
996
00:36:39,367 --> 00:36:40,567
or playing with them
over there
997
00:36:40,567 --> 00:36:41,967
in that
adorable little play area.
998
00:36:41,967 --> 00:36:43,066
[Dan] It's totally different.
999
00:36:43,066 --> 00:36:45,066
Everything is... is changed.
1000
00:36:45,066 --> 00:36:47,266
The floor? I mean,
the floor is amazing.
1001
00:36:47,333 --> 00:36:48,301
-[Brianne] Totally different.
-I don't wanna be that person
1002
00:36:48,301 --> 00:36:48,767
-[Brianne] Totally different.
-I don't wanna be that person
1003
00:36:48,834 --> 00:36:50,233
that just goes "Wow!"
to everything
1004
00:36:50,233 --> 00:36:52,734
as we go through each thing,
but, wow.
1005
00:36:52,734 --> 00:36:54,233
[both laughing] Yeah.
1006
00:36:54,233 --> 00:36:55,500
Make yourselves at home.
1007
00:36:55,567 --> 00:36:57,166
[Brianne] This looks amazing.
1008
00:36:57,233 --> 00:36:59,266
[Drew] You'll be able
to watch movies.
1009
00:36:59,266 --> 00:37:00,400
[Brianne] I'm ready
for a glass of wine.
1010
00:37:00,467 --> 00:37:01,934
-Yeah.
-Snuggle up.
1011
00:37:01,934 --> 00:37:04,400
-Watch one of Dan's
romantic comedies.
-[Brianne laughs]
1012
00:37:04,467 --> 00:37:06,166
[Brianne] This is
gonna be the spot.
1013
00:37:06,233 --> 00:37:08,233
You know, the kids
are gonna love it.
1014
00:37:08,233 --> 00:37:10,500
You find it's hard to remember
what it looked like before,
1015
00:37:10,567 --> 00:37:11,567
or is it still vivid
in your mind?
1016
00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,367
No, 'cause you could see
yourself in the mirror,
1017
00:37:13,367 --> 00:37:15,266
-so it was disconcerting.
-[Brianne] That's true.
1018
00:37:15,333 --> 00:37:17,266
-You'd sit here and watch
a show or something, like...
-I don't miss that.
1019
00:37:17,266 --> 00:37:18,301
..."Who's that staring
back at me? Oh, it's me."
1020
00:37:18,301 --> 00:37:19,500
..."Who's that staring
back at me? Oh, it's me."
1021
00:37:19,567 --> 00:37:20,567
I don't miss
seeing myself from here.
1022
00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:21,667
-You were lost
in your own eyes.
-Yeah.
1023
00:37:21,667 --> 00:37:22,867
[Brianne] What was
really important to us
1024
00:37:22,934 --> 00:37:25,367
was the indoor/outdoor
connectivity,
1025
00:37:25,367 --> 00:37:27,934
and this really delivers
on that.
1026
00:37:27,934 --> 00:37:30,567
[Jonathan] You guys did
an incredible job
with your yard.
1027
00:37:30,567 --> 00:37:32,166
Now you can actually
get to it...
1028
00:37:32,233 --> 00:37:33,367
-[Brianne] Yes!
-...'cause the doors open.
1029
00:37:33,367 --> 00:37:36,467
Would you like to try
your new door?
1030
00:37:36,467 --> 00:37:38,100
-You've gotta try it.
-[Jonathan] Yes?
1031
00:37:38,100 --> 00:37:39,667
-I know!
-Okay. Let's open it up.
1032
00:37:39,734 --> 00:37:41,166
All right,
so if you grab the left...
1033
00:37:41,233 --> 00:37:42,734
So you just flick that latch.
1034
00:37:43,767 --> 00:37:44,867
And then we have
this latch here.
1035
00:37:45,867 --> 00:37:47,333
[Dan] And I didn't
have to grunt to do it.
1036
00:37:47,333 --> 00:37:48,301
[Brianne] Oh, my goodness,
look at this.
1037
00:37:48,301 --> 00:37:48,767
[Brianne] Oh, my goodness,
look at this.
1038
00:37:48,834 --> 00:37:49,867
What a difference.
1039
00:37:49,867 --> 00:37:52,000
Indoor/outdoor living
at its finest.
1040
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:53,400
-[Dan] So much room
for activities.
-I love that.
1041
00:37:53,467 --> 00:37:55,100
[Drew] So much room
for activities!
1042
00:37:55,100 --> 00:37:57,467
This is the dream right here.
1043
00:37:57,467 --> 00:37:59,033
Before, that door,
1044
00:37:59,033 --> 00:38:00,133
while it was still large,
1045
00:38:00,133 --> 00:38:02,266
it was
completely unfunctional.
1046
00:38:02,266 --> 00:38:03,600
-Like, we didn't
use it at all.
-[Jonathan] Oh, yeah.
1047
00:38:03,667 --> 00:38:05,500
-[groans loudly]
-Remember that door?
1048
00:38:07,033 --> 00:38:08,767
I broke a nail on that door.
1049
00:38:08,834 --> 00:38:10,500
You know, I work out, guys.
I hit the gym.
1050
00:38:10,567 --> 00:38:12,000
-[Brianne laughs]
-I think I pulled a muscle
1051
00:38:12,000 --> 00:38:13,667
-trying to open that door.
-Yes. It was bad.
1052
00:38:13,667 --> 00:38:17,166
Let me just say, I pulled out
all the stops to get you this.
1053
00:38:17,166 --> 00:38:18,266
-Thank you.
-[Brianna chuckles]
1054
00:38:18,333 --> 00:38:19,867
Maybe you were focused on that
1055
00:38:19,867 --> 00:38:21,567
when I was putting
this kitchen together.
1056
00:38:21,567 --> 00:38:22,600
[Brianne] Oh, my goodness.
1057
00:38:24,000 --> 00:38:25,033
[Jonathan] How does this feel?
1058
00:38:25,033 --> 00:38:26,166
[Brianne] Look at
this kitchen.
1059
00:38:26,166 --> 00:38:27,166
[Dan] Look at this island.
1060
00:38:27,233 --> 00:38:28,533
-This is huge!
-[Jonathan] Ow!
1061
00:38:28,567 --> 00:38:30,367
[Jonathan] If you wanna
hug the island,
you hug the island.
1062
00:38:30,367 --> 00:38:31,500
[laughing] I do wanna
hug the island.
1063
00:38:31,567 --> 00:38:32,667
[Jonathan] This is
a no-judgment zone.
1064
00:38:32,734 --> 00:38:33,767
I do wanna hug it.
1065
00:38:33,834 --> 00:38:35,100
[laughing] I love it!
1066
00:38:35,100 --> 00:38:36,667
[Drew] We had to move
Jack's bedroom
1067
00:38:36,667 --> 00:38:37,767
to make this kitchen happen,
1068
00:38:37,767 --> 00:38:39,066
but it was worth it.
1069
00:38:39,066 --> 00:38:41,467
I love everything
about this kitchen.
1070
00:38:41,467 --> 00:38:43,066
The location of it,
the size of it,
1071
00:38:43,066 --> 00:38:44,166
the function of it.
1072
00:38:44,166 --> 00:38:46,033
[Dan] I mean,
this is a game-changer.
1073
00:38:46,033 --> 00:38:48,166
[Brianne] This is much bigger
than I thought it could be.
1074
00:38:48,233 --> 00:38:48,301
Didn't seem like
there was enough space
1075
00:38:48,301 --> 00:38:50,567
Didn't seem like
there was enough space
1076
00:38:50,567 --> 00:38:51,734
for a kitchen this size.
1077
00:38:51,734 --> 00:38:53,567
-Do we need an intercom
at each end?
-We might.
1078
00:38:53,567 --> 00:38:54,667
[imitates radio]
1079
00:38:54,734 --> 00:38:55,867
Could you pass me
some more carrots, please?
1080
00:38:55,867 --> 00:38:57,033
If you think about it,
1081
00:38:57,033 --> 00:38:58,266
you didn't have the space
for it,
1082
00:38:58,266 --> 00:39:01,000
because of the largest
brick fireplace of all time.
1083
00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:02,100
[Brianne laughs]
It was so big.
1084
00:39:02,100 --> 00:39:04,333
This is
such a better function.
1085
00:39:04,333 --> 00:39:05,767
You know,
the kids always wanted
1086
00:39:05,767 --> 00:39:07,934
to participate in cooking,
1087
00:39:07,934 --> 00:39:09,667
and all of those things,
and they never could, really,
1088
00:39:09,667 --> 00:39:11,567
'cause the kitchen
just wasn't set up for that.
1089
00:39:11,567 --> 00:39:14,467
Just feels like it was always
meant to be here, honesty.
1090
00:39:14,467 --> 00:39:15,767
-Mmm-hmm.
-It does.
1091
00:39:15,767 --> 00:39:17,467
-[Dan] Oh, yeah.
-Oh, my gosh.
1092
00:39:17,467 --> 00:39:18,301
Look at all this space!
1093
00:39:18,301 --> 00:39:18,600
Look at all this space!
1094
00:39:19,934 --> 00:39:22,266
Storage, storage, storage.
1095
00:39:22,266 --> 00:39:23,467
This is amazing.
1096
00:39:23,467 --> 00:39:25,333
[Jonathan]
All of this is aimed
1097
00:39:25,333 --> 00:39:26,667
to make life
a little bit easier.
1098
00:39:26,734 --> 00:39:29,500
[Drew] You have a wine fridge.
You have an ice maker.
1099
00:39:29,567 --> 00:39:31,567
You have
state-of-the-art appliances.
1100
00:39:31,567 --> 00:39:35,066
When you can have
a showcase range like this,
1101
00:39:35,066 --> 00:39:36,266
you have
the wall space for it?
1102
00:39:36,266 --> 00:39:37,367
-[Dan] Yeah.
-Do it.
1103
00:39:37,367 --> 00:39:39,100
It's a focal point.
Draws the eye.
1104
00:39:39,100 --> 00:39:40,166
You have the statement hood.
1105
00:39:40,233 --> 00:39:42,100
[Brianne] I love
the two-tone look.
1106
00:39:42,100 --> 00:39:44,066
I love
the contrasting countertops
1107
00:39:44,066 --> 00:39:46,000
between the island
and the perimeter.
1108
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,301
And I love the pops of, like,
the natural elements
1109
00:39:48,301 --> 00:39:49,500
And I love the pops of, like,
the natural elements
1110
00:39:49,567 --> 00:39:50,667
-of the wood and stuff.
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
1111
00:39:50,734 --> 00:39:52,400
I think
it really keeps it warm.
1112
00:39:52,467 --> 00:39:54,567
It does make more sense
for the heart of the home
1113
00:39:54,567 --> 00:39:56,166
-to be in the heart
of the home.
-Yes.
1114
00:39:56,233 --> 00:39:57,934
[Jonathan] Having the kitchen
tucked off to the back,
1115
00:39:57,934 --> 00:39:59,934
it just made it
very difficult,
1116
00:39:59,934 --> 00:40:01,934
I think because you feel
so isolated.
1117
00:40:01,934 --> 00:40:03,767
You really feel connected now.
1118
00:40:03,767 --> 00:40:06,033
The kids will be able
to bring their friends over,
1119
00:40:06,033 --> 00:40:08,100
and, you know,
we can line up here.
1120
00:40:08,100 --> 00:40:09,667
They can play inside
and outside,
1121
00:40:09,667 --> 00:40:11,400
and they can come and go
and we can see them.
1122
00:40:11,467 --> 00:40:13,500
[Brianne] I can see
all of them sitting here,
1123
00:40:13,567 --> 00:40:15,367
coloring, making cookies.
1124
00:40:15,367 --> 00:40:17,166
This just feels like how
1125
00:40:17,233 --> 00:40:18,301
-it should have always been.
-Yeah.
1126
00:40:18,301 --> 00:40:19,000
-it should have always been.
-Yeah.
1127
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:21,767
[Jonathan] But if you're gonna
have a kitchen like this,
1128
00:40:21,767 --> 00:40:23,567
you gotta have somewhere
beautiful to enjoy it.
1129
00:40:23,567 --> 00:40:24,734
Ooh.
1130
00:40:26,767 --> 00:40:27,867
Wow.
1131
00:40:27,867 --> 00:40:29,467
[Brianne] Look at
all the seating!
1132
00:40:29,467 --> 00:40:31,233
Oh, my goodness, look how many
people you can sit.
1133
00:40:31,233 --> 00:40:32,767
You can sit eight easily.
1134
00:40:32,767 --> 00:40:34,367
-[Jonathan] Oh, yeah.
-[Dan] We're gonna have
to get friends.
1135
00:40:34,367 --> 00:40:35,600
[Brianne] Like...
1136
00:40:35,667 --> 00:40:37,767
[Jonathan laughs] Yeah.
Oh, so hard to make friends.
1137
00:40:37,834 --> 00:40:39,100
This is exactly
what we needed.
1138
00:40:39,100 --> 00:40:40,467
Look back, though, from here,
1139
00:40:40,467 --> 00:40:42,100
compared to what
it was like before.
1140
00:40:42,100 --> 00:40:44,400
How nice is it to be able
to sort of see to the kitchen,
1141
00:40:44,467 --> 00:40:45,967
-the living space, and...
-[Brianne] It's incredible.
1142
00:40:45,967 --> 00:40:47,066
...you can enjoy
all the spaces
1143
00:40:47,066 --> 00:40:48,301
but still have
that connectivity.
1144
00:40:48,301 --> 00:40:48,333
but still have
that connectivity.
1145
00:40:48,333 --> 00:40:50,100
I love it.
I really, really do.
1146
00:40:50,100 --> 00:40:52,100
And, I mean,
not only is it connectivity,
1147
00:40:52,100 --> 00:40:54,233
but it's also a little bit
intimate over here.
1148
00:40:54,233 --> 00:40:55,767
-[Jonathan] Yeah.
-Which I didn't expect.
1149
00:40:55,767 --> 00:40:59,233
[Jonathan] It's nice to have
a spot that feels like
1150
00:40:59,233 --> 00:41:00,567
-kind of a formal dining area.
-[Brianne] Yeah.
1151
00:41:00,567 --> 00:41:02,000
And, you know,
you're gonna have this used
1152
00:41:02,000 --> 00:41:04,066
-for kids' homework
and crafting...
-[Brianne] Sure.
1153
00:41:04,066 --> 00:41:05,166
...and everything else,
1154
00:41:05,166 --> 00:41:06,467
but when you wanna host
1155
00:41:06,467 --> 00:41:08,166
and when you wanna entertain,
have a nice dinner,
1156
00:41:08,166 --> 00:41:09,367
it's the perfect spot.
1157
00:41:09,367 --> 00:41:10,934
[Brianne] As well as maybe
some more casual dinners.
1158
00:41:10,934 --> 00:41:13,100
I didn't think
we were casual diners
1159
00:41:13,100 --> 00:41:14,767
at a table,
but maybe we are.
1160
00:41:14,834 --> 00:41:16,767
I mean, it's so beautiful,
and it's functional.
1161
00:41:16,834 --> 00:41:17,967
Really, really love it.
1162
00:41:17,967 --> 00:41:18,301
[Drew] I love, too,
that you have
1163
00:41:18,301 --> 00:41:19,367
[Drew] I love, too,
that you have
1164
00:41:19,367 --> 00:41:20,567
all these beautiful memories
up here.
1165
00:41:20,567 --> 00:41:23,100
[Brianne] Oh, my gosh,
look at all those! Aw.
1166
00:41:23,100 --> 00:41:24,166
[Jonathan] And we managed
to sneak in
1167
00:41:24,166 --> 00:41:25,467
some more storage here, too.
1168
00:41:25,467 --> 00:41:26,734
-No storage.
-Open that up.
1169
00:41:26,734 --> 00:41:28,000
Yeah, that was...
1170
00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,100
It was difficult before.
1171
00:41:30,100 --> 00:41:31,867
-[Brianne] Look at this.
-[Dan] Oh, yeah,
that's a huge change.
1172
00:41:31,934 --> 00:41:33,600
[Brianne] This is
so much storage
1173
00:41:33,667 --> 00:41:35,467
for shoes and jackets
1174
00:41:35,467 --> 00:41:38,467
and backpacks
and all the things kids have.
1175
00:41:38,467 --> 00:41:40,266
-It's gonna be awesome.
-Ma'am, why don't you
grab a seat?
1176
00:41:40,333 --> 00:41:41,333
-Yeah.
-We'll all grab a seat.
1177
00:41:42,500 --> 00:41:44,367
-[Drew groans]
-Still feel like home?
1178
00:41:44,367 --> 00:41:47,000
It feels more like home
than it did before.
1179
00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:48,301
[Drew] You picked
an awesome house.
1180
00:41:48,301 --> 00:41:48,600
[Drew] You picked
an awesome house.
1181
00:41:48,667 --> 00:41:50,467
You really did.
It's actually really cool
1182
00:41:50,467 --> 00:41:52,367
that you had that foresight
1183
00:41:52,367 --> 00:41:53,934
to be able to find
a house like this.
1184
00:41:53,934 --> 00:41:56,066
It just needed a bit of work
to make it function
for your family.
1185
00:41:56,066 --> 00:41:57,467
[Brianne] It feels
like a house
1186
00:41:57,467 --> 00:41:58,867
that we should live in,
1187
00:41:58,867 --> 00:42:01,667
versus the one that just felt
like a house we bought.
1188
00:42:01,667 --> 00:42:04,367
[laughing] I don't miss
anything about the old house.
1189
00:42:04,367 --> 00:42:05,667
Not a single thing.
1190
00:42:05,734 --> 00:42:07,000
It's such a change.
1191
00:42:07,000 --> 00:42:09,266
Everything is so much better,
it's so much nicer.
1192
00:42:09,333 --> 00:42:11,367
It's all the things that when
we first looked at this house,
1193
00:42:11,367 --> 00:42:13,266
-we thought it could be,
and then some.
-Absolutely.
1194
00:42:13,333 --> 00:42:14,834
-[gasps] Look at it!
-[Jonathan] Hey.
1195
00:42:14,834 --> 00:42:16,166
-[Drew] Hi!
-[Dan] Welcome home!
1196
00:42:16,233 --> 00:42:17,667
[Brianne] What do you think?
1197
00:42:18,867 --> 00:42:19,967
-You excited?
-He likes it!
1198
00:42:19,967 --> 00:42:21,867
I always thought
this house could be
1199
00:42:21,867 --> 00:42:23,367
so much more than it was.
1200
00:42:23,367 --> 00:42:25,867
I can just see it
coming to life
1201
00:42:25,867 --> 00:42:27,033
with what we've done now,
1202
00:42:27,033 --> 00:42:28,667
and I can see how the kids
are gonna grow up here.
1203
00:42:29,867 --> 00:42:32,834
Yes. There you go.
Gillian found her spot.
1204
00:42:32,834 --> 00:42:34,834
-Do you think you guys
can sit there?
-Oh, Jack's in his spot.
1205
00:42:34,834 --> 00:42:36,567
Wait, do Mom and Dad
have their spots?
1206
00:42:36,567 --> 00:42:38,567
-Where am I gonna sit?
-[Jack] Right there.
1207
00:42:38,567 --> 00:42:39,934
Oh, right there. Okay.
Not by you.
1208
00:42:39,934 --> 00:42:41,233
-What about me?
-[Brianne] Clearly.
1209
00:42:41,233 --> 00:42:42,934
-[Jack] Right there.
-Mmm.
1210
00:42:42,934 --> 00:42:44,600
The house will
really improve our ability
1211
00:42:44,667 --> 00:42:46,467
to spend
quality time together.
1212
00:42:46,467 --> 00:42:47,467
Wait, what about me?
1213
00:42:48,266 --> 00:42:48,301
[laughs]
1214
00:42:48,301 --> 00:42:49,567
[laughs]
1215
00:42:49,567 --> 00:42:50,967
You get
such little time together,
1216
00:42:50,967 --> 00:42:53,233
and I think the ability to be
together in the same space
1217
00:42:53,233 --> 00:42:55,400
will really enhance
that quality time.
1218
00:42:55,467 --> 00:42:56,667
My turn. Ready?
1219
00:42:56,734 --> 00:42:57,600
[shouts] Whoa!
