Home Town:
The Mathews House. Small Budget, Big Style.
Alise Matthews is looking to buy a starter home within walking distance from town, so she can be closer to her new business. She’s looking for a small home with character and charm but has a thrifty all-in budget of $75,000 and a wish list that includes space for her golden retriever. To help her make the big decision, Ben and Erin show her two homes: The Bush house, part of the historical Bush dairy farm, which comes with a sizeable yard and lake view but is severely rundown and The Shamburger house, a well-kept cottage with great bones but a much smaller yard. Ben and Erin create a jaw-dropping transformation complete with a covet-worthy kitchen and a dreamy outdoor patio space.
