That last house the young couple saw was amazing. It was definitely a "heart" home. Thank you so much for the upload. I love this show. Cheers from Canada.
Thank you so much for these! It may sound silly, but these are the highlight of my days. The world is in such a mess and there is too much chaos. I come HERE to remember that there IS a place in the world where life holds steady. These are my comfort food! Thank you. ❤
Can someone explain why it takes so long to close on a house in the UK? In Canada, once an offer is accepted, there's no wait unless the seller needs more time. It's an agreed upon time. In the UK, it always seems to be weeks or months before they can move in.
For the young couple, the 1st house they saw was my favourite. It had the best curb appeal, open plan kitchen and dining/living area which I loved, a snug which could be an office or a 4th bedroom seeing as there is a bathroom downstairs (it was the only house they saw with 2 bathrooms), nice family bathroom upstairs with 2 spacious bedrooms and an equally good sized 3rd, nice big garage and driveway and beautiful spacious garden. Although the 4th house was cheaper and had a bigger garden, cheaper isn't always better and it would need reconfiguration for it to work for me. For the older couple, although they 3rd house was cheaper, I would pay the extra for that 1st house. It was in a nice neighbourhood and had better curb appeal, had an extra bathroom that was ensuite to a bedroom, felt more open and brighter with a little bit of warmth with the colours of the bigger living room, and the bigger garden sealed it for me.
I too find the length of time to get moved in to be super long in many cases, compared to USA. My sister is a realtor and she sold a house yesterday with assurance she could get them in by Christmas lol…ok that is super fast but a month is most usual. But otherwise, an enjoyable episode as always and happy to see both couples get their chosen houses. Thanks for posting.
The high-gloss slick floors in that first house are absolutely wrong for an aging couple. The woman looks like a broken hip waiting to happen (that way of listening with the mouth hanging open makes her look very old). On the other hand, the smooth floors will work well with the wheel chair that is probably in her future… Not trying to be mean, but thinking of my own aged parents and there's no way such slick, shiny floors make any sense for people sliding into the brittle bones brigade.
Also why do retirees want to buy huge houses with stairs to accommodate children/grandchildren who will probably only visit occasionally. Pay for them to stay in a nearby hotel and save an enormous amount of money by buying a house that is suitable for them as they age.
Just keeping it clean would be an exhausting task in itself for a younger couple let alone retirees.
Lovely couples , lovely searches. I just can't get over how incredibly dragged out the actual transactions are… My current apartment dragged a little but only because the documnts from the seller took a month to arrive, so it was 2.5 months altogether. Other sales over the years (in three different countries) have typically taken less than a month to complete.

That Ann is just magnificent. So glad they got their house.

The second house of the old couple is my style,so beautiful upgraded 😍 🎉, like the tile, like everything.
Why does everyone in every single show say "I/we want to put our own stamp on it?" Stupid statement. You can do that regardless.
Also why do retirees want to buy huge houses with stairs to accommodate children/grandchildren who will probably only visit occasionally. Pay for them to stay in a nearby hotel and save an enormous amount of money by buying a house that is suitable for them as they age.

A sink in the bedroom is just so odd but I know it used to be a thing in the UK
Thank you so much for sharing, each episode that I get to watch brightens my day😊

Sorry, but your show can't hold a candle to "Escape to the Country!"
Both lovely houses, good "matches" to the buyers!
Why keep showing a house on a busy street!!!
