00:00How big is your current house?
00:026,700 square foot.
00:03Brian and Debbie might be downsizing,
00:06but their list of must-haves is still extra large.
00:09A formal dining room, a den for you.
00:11A craft room for her, a toy box.
00:14Toy box?
00:14For my toys.
00:16And when it comes to color?
00:17I would like to have white cabinets.
00:19The curveballs continue.
00:21White house, white cabinets, white walls.
00:24That might be a little too much white.
00:26I don't want color.
00:27You like it?
00:28No.
00:28Oh.
00:29I was like, oh, I don't know if she got this right.
00:32Can Mika and I tackle every design dilemma?
00:35What is that phase?
00:36No, hey, no, no, no, stop, stop, stop, stop, stop, no.
00:38For a dream home that fulfills every single wish.
00:43Wow.
00:45Oh, my God.
00:49Oh, man, Brian, this is looking good so far.
00:51Yeah.
00:52Mika and I build custom homes on fast timelines.
00:56We don't want to carry two mortgages for too long.
00:58Time is money.
00:59Time is money.
01:00We're proof that construction and marriage can mix.
01:03Give me a sweaty hug.
01:04We're still doing new construction.
01:06You ready to break some ground?
01:08But now we're taking bigger risks.
01:11Look at all that black mold behind that wall.
01:13I think we're going to do a shipping container house.
01:16Let's go.
01:17Making bolder decisions.
01:18Put your arm up here.
01:19You ready?
01:19You ready?
01:21We've never put it in any other house.
01:23And always racing the clock.
01:25I can't believe they're going to be living inside of this in less than 100 days.
01:30This is amazing.
01:35Check this out.
01:37Wow.
01:37Here they are.
01:38Hey there.
01:39This is so nice.
01:40It's tucked away.
01:41We've been out to Plant City many, many of times, but I've never seen this neighborhood.
01:45You know, I feel like Plant City is like the last frontier of the Tampa Bay area.
01:50There's still land out here to build.
01:52And Brian and Debbie found the perfect lot.
01:54This lot is massive.
01:55So how big is this?
01:56This is two and a half acres.
01:57Okay.
01:58We were going to actually buy a home.
02:00We looked at a lot.
02:00We did.
02:01And then finally, I just said, you know what?
02:02We have to fix it the way we want it anyway, so let's just build.
02:05Mm-hmm.
02:05You live basically across the lake from us currently.
02:08Is that the reason why you're moving out to Plant City to get away from your neighbors?
02:12Yeah, wait a second.
02:13No.
02:14No, no.
02:14Not at all.
02:15This will put us closer to our children and grandchildren.
02:18Oh, nice.
02:18Okay, that's a perk.
02:19My wife and I were glad we found each other.
02:21Yes.
02:22And we did later in life.
02:23Well, in my former life, I had a nightclub.
02:26That's where we met.
02:27Debbie used to like to come in with her mom and dance.
02:30We love to jitterbug.
02:31I saw a cute girl, very caring and compassionate.
02:34She keeps life interesting for those around her.
02:36My mom would tell me, Brian likes you.
02:38And I'd be like, no way.
02:39It only took me nine years to ask her out.
02:41But we dated for about a year, and then he asked me to marry him.
02:44I don't know what I would do without him, honestly.
02:46Well, I'm excited for you guys.
02:47I mean, it's kind of sad and bittersweet that we're going to lose you as neighbors.
02:50But I have to say, I think you're going to be super happy here, too.
02:53So I have to ask you, how big is your current house?
02:55It looks massive.
02:566,700 square foot.
02:58But it's a multi-generational home.
03:00It's all connected.
03:02Yes, it is.
03:03We designed the house that we're in and had talked mom and dad to come down from Michigan.
03:07I have a disabled brother.
03:08And we all decided we'd build a family estate, take care of one another.
03:12And what's happened now, mom and dad have gone to be with the Lord.
03:16We have my brother in the facility.
03:18Okay.
03:18He needs additional care.
03:19So, it's time for us to build something for us.
03:23Makes sense.
03:24We've taken care of people.
03:25My grandchildren, my mom, Brian's homin' dad, his brother.
03:30And now, we need to take care of us.
03:32When you say downsizing, are we cutting that in half or like, how long?
03:36About 2,900 square foot.
03:38That's right in that area.
03:39What are you envisioning here?
03:40Single floor.
03:41How many bedrooms, bathrooms are we wanting?
03:43I'd like a main bedroom and then two bedrooms with a shared bath.
03:47Okay.
03:48And we like open concept.
03:49We like to entertain and we do Christmas with our kids.
03:51And we always have a lot of people.
03:53So, I would like a separate dining room.
03:56Oh, like a formal.
03:57Like a formal dining room.
03:57Like a formal dining room, yes.
03:58And then a den for you, right?
04:00My wife is always on me about sitting at the kitchen table and doing my work.
04:04Ah.
04:05And then we also want a craft room for her.
04:07What about outdoor space?
04:08Yes, a lanai.
04:09We'd like that.
04:10In a three-stall garage.
04:13Where are we downsizing?
04:15Obviously, you guys are going to put that together.
04:17Wait a minute.
04:18What are we looking at as far as budget for the house?
04:20We're looking at $925,000.
04:23Okay.
04:23I feel like you guys are giving us a good head start.
04:26Lots of design decisions go a part of this process.
04:29My house is like a lot different than what I'm envisioning of what I like now.
04:34Yeah.
04:35We designed the whole thing as a family and that was a long process.
04:38Everybody had an input.
04:40Different colors, different styles.
04:42I almost feel like an inspiration tour of your house might be.
04:44Might be smart.
04:45We're not too far.
04:46It's just starting to rain, so perfect timing.
04:49That's good luck.
04:49Yes.
04:49It's very good luck.
04:50It is.
04:51Let's get off the lock.
04:51Let's get it started.
05:01I love my job, but especially on days like today where I have a very short commute to work, I'm
05:06actually taking a bike ride to meet Debbie and Brian at their current house, which is just right up the
05:10street from me.
05:14Hey, hey.
05:15Hey, hey.
05:15Hello.
05:16Hello.
05:16How are you doing, neighbors?
05:18Oh, yeah.
05:18What do you got going on there?
05:19This is Molly.
05:20Oh, my gosh.
05:21You guys, okay.
05:22This is like the biggest house in the neighborhood.
05:25I definitely see why you want to downsize because this is a lot of house to maintain.
05:29It is.
05:30The objective today is figuring out how to downsize, and I really want to learn more about their style by
05:36figuring out what they don't like in the current house they live in.
05:39This 6,700-square-foot home is going to have a lot to look at for inspiration.
05:44This is a very defined look.
05:46It does have like a Mediterranean design.
05:48The house is beautiful, don't get me wrong, but I would like to do contemporary, streamlined, no more arches, white.
05:55Oh, wow.
05:56Yes.
05:56What about the courtyard-style garages?
05:59I'd like to have probably a side entry.
06:02Yes.
06:02Instead of having this massive round.
06:07You could fit 20 cars in this driveway.
06:09Yes.
06:09So, I mean, you're completely doing a different style.
06:12Completely.
06:12Wait till you see the inside.
06:14Come on in.
06:15What?
06:17Oh, my goodness.
06:19Welcome to our home.
06:20Wow.
06:21First of all, I do notice you've got a lot of color going on in here.
06:25Orange is my favorite color, but I think it's dark.
06:28When we move really.
06:29I'd like it to be a clean slate, almost white.
06:31Oh, nice.
06:32Okay.
06:33So that I can do more decor rather than walls.
06:37Okay.
06:37So we can do the color where it's not so permanent you can change it out through the year.
06:41Correct.
06:41Yes, exactly.
06:42Oh, my gosh.
06:43This kitchen, you guys.
06:44I'm noticing two different kind of countertops, the two-tone cabinetry.
06:49I want to change it up.
06:50Ah, so what would you do different?
06:52The countertops are going to be the same.
06:53I'm not going to do a two-tone.
06:54And then I would like to have white cabinets.
06:57Okay, wait a minute.
06:58So she wants white house, white cabinets, white walls.
07:02Are you a different person than you were 13 years ago?
07:04Yes, I am.
07:06Okay, so the goal is to downsize.
07:08You guys have two islands here.
07:11Do you need them both?
07:12Um, kinda.
07:14Seating for all our family and storage is very important to us.
07:18Correct.
07:18Okay.
07:20This is our room.
07:22Whoa, this room is huge.
07:24I love the lake view.
07:25We do too.
07:26I see the arches kind of repeating itself throughout the hallway and then coming into this room.
07:32Don't like the arches.
07:33Done with that.
07:33I'd like streamline.
07:35Okay.
07:35There's a lot of furniture in here.
07:37You've got a sitting area.
07:38Are we downsizing this space or are you bringing all this furniture to the new house?
07:42Uh, I'm not sure yet.
07:44Okay.
07:45What about this bathroom?
07:46I want to see what's going on in there.
07:48Whoa!
07:49Okay.
07:49Looks like you have a huge walk-in shower, soaking tub.
07:55Are we downsizing this thing?
07:56Um, we like the double shower.
07:58As far as the soaking tub, I'm not sure.
08:00Look how much space this thing takes.
08:02Um, it does.
08:04So that's, I mean, if you're trying to downsize.
08:06We're trying to downsize and this is really big.
08:08We don't use it much, so I'm not sure that we need that in our new bathroom.
08:12All right.
08:13I would love to see the other living areas.
08:15We'll show you.
08:17This is where mom and dad lived with us.
08:20Well, this is a whole other house.
08:21Oh, yes.
08:22Oh my gosh.
08:23And it's so funny how everything's all connected, but this does feel so different.
08:27It's different.
08:27There's a lot going on in Debbie and Brian's current house.
08:30They have like five different kind of tiles in the house.
08:32In the new house, what are we thinking for flooring?
08:34I'm thinking one style throughout bedrooms, throughout the main living areas, but tile in the bathrooms.
08:41Perfect.
08:41It's really a hodgepodge of many different styles under one roof.
08:45I don't like the wood grain cabinets.
08:47I don't like knobs like that.
08:48I was in a friend's house and I walked by with my cargo shorts on, catch it, and I split
08:52their door right in half.
08:53Okay.
08:54They want this new house to have cohesiveness and be a little bit lighter and brighter.
08:58There is one other thing we'd like to show you.
09:00We do have another building, a toy box.
09:03Toy box?
09:04Yeah, for my toys.
09:06And we'd like to do something like this at the new project.
09:12Oh my goodness.
09:13Okay.
09:13That's massive.
09:14We actually have a 1,200 square foot apartment above, and then the garage itself is 1,100 square feet.
09:20And it's not quite big enough.
09:22What?
09:22Dare I say, can we open this door and see what's in there?
09:24Absolutely.
09:27Okay, well.
09:30Holy moly.
09:35Okay, well.
09:39Holy moly.
09:40We'd like to house the travel trailer also with the two boats.
09:44Oh, wow.
09:44So you would need more space then?
09:46A little bit.
09:47A little bit more.
09:47Taking it from about 1,100 square feet up to about 1,700 square feet.
09:51We design homes that are 1,700 square feet.
09:54I don't see where the downsizing part's coming in.
09:57It's going to be a challenge.
09:58I'm wondering how we can keep everything in budget.
10:01We'll have to figure that out.
10:02Hopefully seeing another house today will inspire more ideas on how to downsize.
10:06Nice.
10:07So it is like one big open space.
10:09Mm-hmm.
10:10I mean, this house is 2,800 square feet.
10:12And that's what your new house will be.
10:13Look at this island, you guys.
10:15Check this out.
10:16Wow.
10:17What?
10:18You're used to having two islands?
10:20So maybe we can fit everything you need into one and save floor space.
10:24Definitely.
10:24Absolutely.
10:25Yes.
10:26But there's no nook.
10:28Uh-huh.
10:29There's not.
10:29I would like a little nook.
10:30When our grandchildren come over, we like to sit as a family, but then sometimes the dining
10:35room is too big.
10:36So you really kind of need two dining areas?
10:38Yeah.
10:39Yeah.
10:39I'm wondering where are we going to start saving the square footage?
10:43Take a little bit of square footage out of the bedroom maybe, and then I can have my
10:46little nook.
10:46We should go figure out how small we're going with these rooms.
10:49Absolutely.
10:49Check out this main suite.
10:51Your current bedroom, you almost have like a living room inside of your room.
10:55Are we thinking that we can compromise some of the square footage?
11:00I think so.
11:01Okay.
11:01That is going to save us some square footage.
11:04So, Brian, are you going to need a closet in your office space?
11:06Because that is another way to shave off some square footage.
11:09No, you don't need it.
11:10Perfect.
11:11And then we have to do a craft room that's separate.
11:13If you're not going to need to have a bed and all this other furniture in there, we
11:16can save some space.
11:17This size room is good.
11:19It even could be a little smaller.
11:20Cool.
11:20So, I mean, I feel like I understand where we're going to try to save square footage.
11:24Yes.
11:24And we'll figure out this toy box.
11:26I am good at what I do, but I'm going to have to be honest.
11:30Brian and I have a lot of work to do to make sure that we come up with a perfect
11:34floor plan
11:35that now includes a toy box while downsizing, while keeping things in budget.
11:39So, I have a long night ahead of me.
11:49Brian and Debbie, it seems like every time we meet, it's raining.
11:52I mean, what's up with that?
11:53I don't know.
11:54It's good luck.
11:54It is good luck.
11:55So, I have to say, putting the puzzle piece of this dream home together was a challenge
11:59because you don't want to sacrifice your comforts that you have in your current home.
12:03So, I feel like we accommodated that with this floor plan.
12:05I'm just hoping that it's going to flow really nicely and you're going to be happy with it.
12:09Yep.
12:09I hope so, too.
12:10All right.
12:11So, the front facade of this house, first of all, it's nice and wide.
12:15And because you have the side entry garage, it's like the house can really be a showcase.
12:20It definitely has more of a clean aesthetics.
12:22It's got that contemporary flair, right?
12:25Yes.
12:25And that's what I want.
12:26I love those windows.
12:27We gave you a symmetrical front porch.
12:28You can have seating on both sides because we know that you guys love being outside.
12:32Yes.
12:32All right.
12:33So, stepping into your house, you've got 12-foot ceilings so that even though we're downsizing,
12:37it still has like a grandness to it when you walk in.
12:39Yes.
12:40You guys like to entertain.
12:41You're going to be closer to family now.
12:42So, in the middle, you guys have that big open concept.
12:45Great room, living area, and the kitchen, and the breakfast nook.
12:49You know what else I think is super unique?
12:50Over the island, we gave you a tray ceiling to really define the center of that kitchen.
12:54Ooh.
12:55Awesome.
12:55Nice.
12:55Nice.
12:56It's like a spotlight.
12:57Yes.
12:57Right?
12:57I like that.
12:58Speaking of spotlights, we gave you those solar tubes in the great room.
13:02Yes.
13:03So, you can have that beautiful natural light, not just from the windows, but also from
13:06up above.
13:07Nice.
13:08I love it.
13:08I love it.
13:08Yes.
13:09So, you have a really nice sized formal dining room.
13:11So, when you're hosting the holidays, we can all fit.
13:14And then, for you, you've got the den, but what's nice is when the doors are open,
13:19you can feel like you're part of the party.
13:20Right, honey.
13:21Absolutely.
13:21You can only work in there.
13:23That's right.
13:24So, your main suite is a nice sized room.
13:27You've got a beautiful walk-in shower with dual shower heads.
13:31There we go.
13:32From your room, you have those French doors to enjoy the back lanai, as well as the French
13:37doors off the great room.
13:38Beautiful.
13:39On the other side of the house are those guest rooms, plus you have that bathroom in
13:42the middle, so those guest rooms can share that bathroom.
13:44You also wanted a craft room tucked in a nice private corner of the house, so you can
13:49get creative back there.
13:50That's awesome.
13:51I actually like the way that I'm way in the back here.
13:53You really want to be tucked away.
13:55Yeah.
13:56So, Debbie, I feel like this is your toy box of the house.
13:59Yes.
14:00Oh.
14:00And you've got your own toy box.
14:01I do.
14:02Let's check it out.
14:03Let's look at it.
14:04I'm excited.
14:05This is pretty massive.
14:06I mean, it's just shy of 2,000 square feet.
14:08We gave you super tall garage doors for your toys.
14:11It kind of looks like a second house instead of a garage.
14:14Right.
14:15Yes.
14:15We're excited about it.
14:16Head.
14:17Hey.
14:18Yep.
14:18And we kept it in your budget of $925,000.
14:21We are so excited for you.
14:23And I think it's fitting that the rain is about to stop.
14:26Yes.
14:26The sun is coming out.
14:28Right.
14:28And it's time to start your dream home.
14:30Yeah.
14:31Absolutely.
14:31We can't wait to get started.
14:32This is exciting.
14:32No, we can't either.
14:40Today is a brand new beginning for Brian and Debbie.
14:43It's groundbreaking day, or as I like to call it, land demo.
14:55We have cleared the lot for the main house, and we're working on Brian's toy box right now.
15:00Off to a great start.
15:02It's day one.
15:02Let's get it.
15:08With the lot scraped and footers dug yesterday, we're set up for success today to pour them.
15:14With two structures going up simultaneously, it's crucial we maintain double time pace throughout this build so we can stay
15:21on schedule.
15:32I have to say, Brian and Debbie, it's looking a little bit different in here than the last time.
15:37You're really getting everything prepped.
15:39We are.
15:39To get the house on the market.
15:40We absolutely are.
15:41Is it kind of surreal kicking in?
15:43It is.
15:44I'm okay right now, but I'm sure I'm going to cry about it.
15:46Oh.
15:47It's a new beginning, but you had some great memories here.
15:50We did.
15:50A lot of great memories here.
15:51Well, I'm excited to get moving forward with design decisions.
15:55The inspiration tours, I feel like everything you were loving was like white cabinets, like white and bright, which is
16:01so different than what you're in now.
16:04So it's like your fresh start.
16:06Right.
16:06When we were building the house that we're in now, we had three different families involved.
16:11Three different decision makers.
16:13One of the things I'm excited about in doing this project is that it's just Debbie and me.
16:18It's funny when you say the color white, there's still choices because there's multiple different shades, right?
16:23There is.
16:23There is.
16:23So let's start with some cabinetry.
16:26If you notice side by side, this one, I do feel like it's a little softer because it's got a
16:30little gray undertone.
16:32Mm-hmm.
16:32This is more bright white.
16:34Yes.
16:34I like this one because I do want a white crisp kitchen.
16:38You good with that?
16:38No, I'm good.
16:39I'm good with that.
16:40But you want all white cabinets?
16:44The island, everything?
16:45Mm-hmm.
16:46Mm-hmm.
16:46Mm-hmm.
16:47Yeah, I was thinking that.
16:48Mm-hmm.
16:48That might be a little too much white.
16:52It's just going to kind of all bleed into one another.
16:56What would you think about different colored island?
17:01Oh, I don't know about that.
17:04Yeah.
17:04I don't want color.
17:08What would you think about different colored island lights?
17:11I don't want color.
17:12I know you don't, but it adds interest.
17:16It breaks it up.
17:17Oh.
17:18I love the sound effects.
17:20I feel like what she doesn't say tells me all I need to know.
17:24I can't imagine doing all white.
17:26I just don't want everything to blend in.
17:28That's my concern.
17:29I do have a couple more samples in here.
17:31You want to just kind of see if it's something you're open to because...
17:34Yeah.
17:34All right, so let's just lay these out.
17:38Any of them would possibly work.
17:40I don't want to do the dark like that again.
17:43You know, I have black.
17:44That looks almost...
17:45This really does look similar to...
17:47Yeah.
17:48Yeah.
17:48All right, we've already done that in the old house.
17:50You're out of here.
17:51And this is the back.
17:52That's what we have.
17:53Kind of what we have.
17:56Okay, this is your current kitchen here.
17:59Yes.
17:59All right, we're going to do something different.
18:01You do not like blue.
18:03Yes.
18:04That one's out.
18:04That one's out too?
18:06And so now there's two.
18:08I think that if I do the green, I feel like I have to kind of match something that matches
18:13green.
18:14So I think the...
18:15So green is out.
18:16What do you think?
18:17No, I like the gray.
18:19Okay.
18:19I do.
18:19I think we'll do the gray.
18:21So it's neutral, but it's still not an all white kitchen.
18:24Right, right.
18:24I think this is a good palette to work with and it's not going to marry you to like a
18:28certain color.
18:29Color, yeah.
18:30I'm curious.
18:31Is there anywhere else that you want like a pop of color?
18:34Well, well.
18:37The interior doors.
18:40What are you thinking?
18:41Kind of like a deep gray, I was thinking.
18:44Oh, let's see.
18:44And we went with the gray.
18:46Okay.
18:46I love that.
18:47Island all of a sudden.
18:48You're not trying to match it with the island color.
18:51You want to go a little bit darker.
18:52Yes.
18:52Oh, that's nice.
18:54I think I like that one.
18:55Yeah, it's a shade darker, but it's still complimentary.
18:58Yeah.
18:59What do you think, honey?
18:59I like it.
19:00Yes!
19:01Do we want to do a pop of color on your front door?
19:03I think it's a great idea.
19:05You know my favorite color?
19:07Orange.
19:08Orange.
19:08It just makes me happy.
19:10I love that.
19:11There's a motion tied to that color.
19:13It's the entryway to your new house, your new chapter, so we need to get it right.
19:17I feel like we did really good today, though.
19:19We'll be seeing you guys in a couple weeks and you can kind of get a little sneak peek of
19:22the progress.
19:22Nice.
19:23I'm excited.
19:24Yes!
19:31So we just placed the last block on the main house and we still have a little bit of sunlight
19:35left, so we're not going to waste any of it.
19:37We're going to finish the second half of the toy box right now.
19:41Bryan has a ton of toys, so Bryan needs a massive toy box.
19:45And no, I'm not referring to myself in the third person.
19:48So this garage door opening is 14 feet for all of Bryan's tall toys.
19:55All right, uno mas.
19:56So before we can even start building the second level of the toy box, we have to build all the
20:00scaffolding to get up there.
20:02Here, hang on.
20:03All right.
20:04Whew.
20:05All right, Walt.
20:06Almost ready for this header.
20:08I know.
20:08Let's get these headers up and we're pretty much done.
20:10Yeah, we're ready to set the precast.
20:15All right.
20:16He needs to turn it a little bit.
20:18A little bit lower.
20:18We're almost there.
20:20One down, two to go.
20:23This way.
20:24I'm clear.
20:26Uh-oh.
20:26Hold up.
20:27There you go.
20:27I'm good.
20:28Right there.
20:29Now that we've laid all the block on both structures, we can get the trusses in place.
20:33And it's a good thing because they're already in place.
20:38Thanks for being patient, my friends.
20:48Shake it, Bryan.
20:49Shake it.
20:49Woo-hoo.
20:50Okay, there is so much going on right now.
20:52I feel like I don't want to get in the way, but we do need a little bit of a
20:55blank canvas to figure out this paint color today.
20:57We're pretty much at the halfway point, so I feel like we definitely need to select the interior flooring for
21:02this house.
21:03And the last thing is going to be this pop of color on the entryway.
21:07So I have four samples today.
21:09I feel like we need to paint this so they can see what it's actually going to look like.
21:13This is why you pick exterior paint outside, because once you actually let this dry, I think it's going to
21:20soften up a bit.
21:21I'm not mad at that.
21:22All about presentation.
21:23I'm going to make sure my sample looks the best.
21:25What is this one?
21:25Oh, spicy.
21:27Yeah, baby, you are spicy.
21:28I'm going to tell you that.
21:29This one is actually really close to what they have inside their house right now.
21:33It's like that burnt orange kind of sunset.
21:37Hello, hello.
21:39Oh, and Molly's here.
21:40Molly's here.
21:41Welcome to your future home.
21:44Oh, wow.
21:45When I first walked up and they were standing there and I looked at those colors, I thought, whoa, they
21:50were really bright.
21:51We figure, like, let's just visualize this as being that front door, right?
21:55Yes.
21:57What's speaking to you?
21:59Oh, I don't know if she got this right.
22:01What is that face?
22:03This isn't what I had in my mind.
22:10What's speaking to you?
22:12Oh, I don't know if she got this right.
22:17Not these two.
22:19They're too orangey.
22:20What about these two?
22:21These actually do have, like, a darker undertone.
22:24This is actually, to me, this is the color you have inside your house.
22:26Yeah, and I don't want that one.
22:28It's a little dark.
22:30Well, that only is one other one.
22:32I was going to say, right?
22:32We're down to one.
22:33Do you like the last one that's remaining?
22:35I do.
22:36I like the middle one.
22:37The middle one?
22:38This one?
22:38Yeah.
22:39That's orange.
22:40When they dry, they look better.
22:42It's not too bright, but it's not too dark.
22:45All right, so that's our winner right there.
22:48And I think it's going to look great.
22:50Yes.
22:50I do too.
22:51I did bring some flooring samples.
22:53From the front door to the floor.
22:55To the floor.
22:55Let's check it out.
22:56That works.
22:57Molly.
22:58Come here.
22:59We need your help.
23:00Come on, Molly.
23:00She's going to test it out.
23:01We've got to make sure which one Molly's most comfortable on.
23:03They're scratch resistant, girls.
23:04I'm saying, you can lay on all of them.
23:06You pretty much want to keep the floors, like, the same throughout all the main areas,
23:10right?
23:10Yes.
23:11Okay.
23:11I feel like these three options would work with what we have selected so far.
23:14Anything jumping out?
23:16Uh, the knots on that one.
23:18You like it?
23:19No.
23:19Oh.
23:20Not not.
23:21It's too noticeable.
23:23Even though it's got the gray tones in it that pick up the island.
23:26I think the gray in the island is enough.
23:28Okay.
23:29Oh, Brian.
23:29You see that smile she gave you, Brian?
23:31Thanks.
23:31She's like, look, I like this one.
23:34Because I think it's light, and the knots, they're kind of subtle.
23:38I think it would be a great choice.
23:40Mm-hmm.
23:40Yeah, I really do.
23:41Wait a minute.
23:42Should we let Molly test it out?
23:43Molly, come here.
23:43Molly, come here.
23:44Which one do you want to lay on?
23:45One, two, three.
23:46There we go.
23:48Good girl.
23:48There we go.
23:50She's comfortable.
23:50She's been decided.
23:52She already looks like she's home.
23:53I love this.
23:54I feel like you guys were making so much progress.
23:56We've got our flooring.
23:57We've got our entryway.
23:59We got HVAC going on.
24:00I think I saw plumbers, electricians.
24:02By next week, we're gonna be closing up the walls with drywall.
24:05This is gonna really start taking shape.
24:06Which means no more peeking at the house.
24:09Okay.
24:09Don't be sending Molly here as a spy.
24:11I'm excited.
24:11Okay, you ready, Molly?
24:13Come on, girls.
24:13Let's go.
24:13Bye.
24:14Aw, look at her tail wagging.
24:16Today, I feel like we accomplished a lot.
24:18I mean, we've got the flooring, we've got the door color.
24:20We still don't have an idea yet for this special project.
24:23So I've been thinking about something that I think would be perfect for them.
24:27What?
24:28Why do I always have to follow you somewhere?
24:31So we already know how much Brian and Debbie love lake life in our neighborhood, right?
24:35Mm-hmm.
24:36My concern is when they move out here to Plant City, they're gonna feel landlocked.
24:41We could do a man-made pond right here with a fountain right in the middle.
24:47You wanna do what?
24:48I wanna give them waterfront property out here.
24:50That would require permit, drainage easement.
24:53I think you did.
24:54And we're at the halfway point.
24:56Time-wise, I don't know if that's even realistic.
24:58And honestly, I don't want to commit them to that because I have no idea what their plans
25:02are for the rest of this property.
25:04That's something that's so permanent.
25:06I like the idea of something with water.
25:09I definitely think you're on the right track.
25:10Okay.
25:11So maybe we do something inside.
25:12I want this special project to, like, beautify the house but not be a headache for Brian and
25:17Debbie.
25:17Have you seen, like, those interior fountains where you can almost make it flush with the
25:22wall and it'll have, like, that water-trickling effect?
25:24Like a waterfall wall?
25:25Almost like a backdrop of a waterfall.
25:27What if it's not actual water?
25:29What if it's like a mural?
25:30Like a painting of the lake?
25:34I don't hate that idea.
25:36What about a water bed?
25:38What if we did a bidet?
25:39That's like a water feature.
25:45I'm done with you.
25:48Um.
25:49Okay.
25:49We both said, um, meaning we have no idea what we're doing.
25:52If none of these work, can I start digging my ponds?
25:55All right.
25:56I feel confident in the next couple of days we're going to figure out this special project
25:58because we have to.
25:59You can go dig out there anytime you want for fun.
26:01All right.
26:01I feel like I'm digging myself in a hole.
26:02Yeah, you are.
26:08Brian and Debbie want a much brighter house this time around, so we're installing solar
26:12tubes to give them even more natural light.
26:14All right.
26:15So we've got the dome set up on the roof side on our solar tube.
26:18It's going to bring all this sunlight from the outside, inside.
26:21All right.
26:22You guys ready to connect this?
26:24All right.
26:25I'm coming down.
26:28Careful, Walt.
26:29You ate a spring chicken.
26:30I knew that.
26:32Solar tubes are a great, inexpensive way to add natural light to a home, and they're energy
26:37efficient.
26:37Hey, Brian.
26:38Yeah.
26:39I can promise you one thing.
26:40What?
26:41This install is going to be very enlightening.
26:45Let there be light.
26:48Natural light.
26:55What a day.
26:56Actually, what a week.
26:58It's been a little bit crazy.
26:59We have so many projects going on simultaneously.
27:01A couple of them have had more hurdles than I would like.
27:03A couple?
27:04Yeah, I know.
27:05More than a couple.
27:06It's all good.
27:06This is why we moved here.
27:09Can you believe that Brian and Debbie want to leave this?
27:12They want to be closer to family.
27:14They're downsizing.
27:15That house is the biggest house in this neighborhood, and they don't need all that space.
27:18We still have no idea what we're doing for a special project.
27:20I just feel like I would love to duplicate this, Peace and Serenity, even though there
27:24are new properties not on the lake.
27:26Does that make sense?
27:27I know they currently have a fire pit.
27:29They're going to miss that, too.
27:30What if we did a fire element with, like, a water accent?
27:35Have you ever seen those fire bowls?
27:37Fire in the middle, and then the water kind of trickles down the side?
27:40Yep.
27:40So why don't we bring both of those to Plant City and remind them of their old neighborhood?
27:44I do think they would appreciate that.
27:47The birds are telling us yes.
27:49The birds are giving us two wings up.
27:59We're going to put some garage doors in.
28:01It's a unique design.
28:03We have three garage doors on the main house.
28:05And on this detached garage, we have four garage doors, and they're huge.
28:10What's cool about it is the drive-through straight through.
28:13So when you bring your truck and your boat through, you don't even have to put a reverse on.
28:17So you keep on going.
28:21So every panel that we put up has two hurricane bars for a wind resistance of 180 miles an hour.
28:27That keeps the door from fluctuating when the hurricane comes and the wind hits it.
28:31Good?
28:32Yep.
28:32All right.
28:35Good?
28:35Long time.
28:36Thank you very much.
28:37This is the typical height of a regular garage door.
28:39Now we've got to add another whole door on top of this one.
28:48Three more to go.
28:54I used to work at a golf course back in the day, raking sand traps.
28:58So I have plenty of practice doing this.
29:01Used to get so mad after I rake it, somebody puts their footprint in it.
29:06Today we are transforming Debbie and Brian's backyard and adding a little water and fire element.
29:13Hey, you remember all the good memories we had around my fire pit back in the old neighborhood?
29:17It was some good times for sure.
29:18We had some long nights, some good times.
29:20So David is an outdoor living specialist and old neighbor of mine.
29:25When I wanted to find a fire pit slash fountain, I knew he was the guy to call.
29:29Let's make it happen.
29:30Yeah.
29:31Most times people either want a fire pit or a fountain.
29:34In this case, we wanted both, so it's definitely a custom piece.
29:37So once we get it centered here, we're going to go down about 11 inches.
29:40Okay.
29:40Sink that base in there.
29:41And then once that's going to be level with the ground,
29:43and then we're going to surround it with Mexican Beach Pebble and then some more of the salt and pepper
29:46rock.
29:46This is going to look good.
29:47It's going to look killer.
29:49Are they unloading the truck right now?
29:50Yes, sir.
29:51All right.
29:51Let's finish raking this out.
29:53What are those Zen gardens you rake?
29:54That's what this feels like.
29:59No, hey, no, no, no.
30:00Stop, stop, stop, stop, stop.
30:01No.
30:02Do not go any further.
30:04Wait, wait, wait.
30:05No, no, no, no, no.
30:06Stop, stop, stop, stop.
30:07No, no.
30:08You can't go that way.
30:09This is the drain field.
30:11Ace, we got to go back it up and then take it this way.
30:14All right.
30:15Whoo.
30:17My bad.
30:18I should have told you.
30:19The drain field is part of the septic system for the main house, and it's made up of a lot
30:24of intricate pipes that are very fragile, and you cannot drive heavy equipment over it.
30:29Dang, this is big.
30:31I can't wait to see this.
30:33That looks good.
30:35All right, so this is our basin, right?
30:36Yes.
30:36We're burying this all the way flush with the ground.
30:38Correct.
30:38How many shovels do you got?
30:43Like a glove.
30:45That's starting to look like a special project.
30:47Nice work, Brian.
30:57Now that the cabinets are in, we have all the countertops going in.
31:00Now what are you going to do?
31:02Could we have gotten a skinnier board for this front door?
31:04We don't have any more boards?
31:06Oh, wait, wait.
31:06No.
31:07We have no boards.
31:08Oh, my gosh.
31:08All right.
31:09Oh!
31:10Oh, man.
31:12All of the light fixtures are getting installed.
31:14The floor is getting finished, and we have 20 truckloads of dirt.
31:18Here he comes right now.
31:20Right on time, Ray Ray.
31:21All right.
31:24We got three fans on the lanai.
31:26Yep.
31:26Non-stop breeze back here.
31:29Hey, I didn't realize how low this was.
31:31How high do we need to bring it?
31:32He wants it all the way so there's no step.
31:35So straight out to the...
31:36Yeah.
31:37He wants the grass the same height as the port.
31:40It's going to be a lot.
31:41Keep it coming.
31:52Mika, where's the front door?
31:54Hello?
31:55Are you kidding me?
31:56Oh, there it is.
31:56There it is.
31:57Come on now.
31:57Come on.
31:57Sorry.
31:58It just blended right in.
32:00Follow the pop of color.
32:01Oh, man.
32:02Furnishing the house.
32:03I think that's what...
32:04It's going to sound super cliche, but that is what makes the house a home.
32:07Am I supposed to jump over that?
32:10Hey, I don't know where this goes.
32:11Okay.
32:11That's the entryway table.
32:13Put it against that wall.
32:13All right.
32:16Oh!
32:17Look at that.
32:17All right.
32:19Woo-hoo!
32:19Brian and Debbie, almost time to come home.
32:22This house really speaks to a true modern aesthetic.
32:25From the statement lighting to the colors, the fine lines, everything is like clean and sleek.
32:30We know Debbie likes orange, so you know we have some orange accents going in this house.
32:35Let's do it.
32:35Oh-ho!
32:36Hey, it matches the front door.
32:38Ah, yes.
32:39All right.
32:39Orange, you glad this chair isn't white?
32:41Uh, yeah.
32:42I need some throw pillows, though.
32:44I need some artwork.
32:45It feels like you are furnishing it the same way it looks on the exterior.
32:48Ah, you did notice that.
32:50Like black and white, clean lines with pops of orange.
32:53It does add a lot more energy.
32:54Formal dining.
32:56Oh!
32:56Hey, watch your head.
32:57Watch your head.
32:58I'm worried about your head, but more importantly, the beautiful chandelier.
33:01This is some statement lighting.
33:03Okay, wait a minute.
33:04Looks good.
33:05You know what's crazy to think about?
33:06This house is half the size of Brian and Debbie's last house, but it's still a massive
33:11house.
33:11You got it, Brian?
33:12I'm coming.
33:13Coming around the corner.
33:15Even though they're downsizing, I don't think they're going to feel that way when they
33:17move in.
33:18It still feels nice and open.
33:20I'll go in this corner?
33:21Yeah.
33:22Perfect.
33:23How about the view of the special project from here?
33:26That's actually perfect.
33:28I love how crafting supplies can also be deployed.
33:31Debbie likes to craft.
33:32I don't know what she's making in here, but she's going to create, and I am all about
33:35that.
33:35No one's going to know Debbie's even in this room.
33:38Bye, Brian.
33:42I wish we could sit down and enjoy this right now, but we still have so much to do.
33:47The good news is we'll probably be here when the sun goes down, so we can actually see
33:51the fire.
33:51Can we just test it out for a second?
33:53We don't have time.
33:54Oh, man.
33:55We don't have time to sit down.
33:57Come on, let's go.
33:57Brian, come on.
33:57I'm enjoying the water view.
33:59Come on.
33:59Aw.
34:00All right.
34:00We'll get it done.
34:01Do you think their neighbors here are going to be as cool as their current neighbors?
34:05Is that a trick question?
34:06I mean, probably not.
34:08Shh.
34:09Don't say it too bad.
34:10She didn't mean that, ma'am.
34:18Is it too much orange or is it just enough?
34:20For Debbie?
34:21Yeah.
34:22It's probably not enough.
34:23So today's probably not only bittersweet for Brian and Debbie because they have lived
34:26in their existing home on the lake for 14 years, but also we're losing really cool neighbors.
34:32Can we believe it?
34:33Can you believe it, honey?
34:35The day's here.
34:35I know.
34:36I'm so excited.
34:37They're definitely going to be missed.
34:38Yeah.
34:39This looks amazing.
34:40Even though it's much smaller than their existing home, it still feels really grand.
34:44I can't wait for Brian and Debbie to see their dream home.
34:47I mean, their old house was everyone else's dreams kind of together.
34:52A new beginning.
34:52Yes, it is.
34:53It's a new season of life.
34:55We've been for 17 years with other people.
34:57Less is definitely more.
34:59Oh, yeah.
35:00I think that this house is going to be perfect for them.
35:02And actually, they're going to be getting here any minute, so we better head out.
35:05All right.
35:06I can't believe it.
35:07Look at this.
35:08I'm going to go real slow.
35:09You are?
35:09Let's take it all in.
35:10Yeah.
35:11Oh, man.
35:12Here they come.
35:13We know that truck from our neighborhood.
35:14Oh, yeah.
35:15I love it.
35:16There's your ruckus orange.
35:18My ruckus orange front door.
35:20That's right.
35:20All right.
35:20Make a left-hand turn.
35:21This is a little bigger than their existing driveway.
35:24How did I guess you would be wearing orange?
35:26Oh, yeah.
35:27Right?
35:28I knew it.
35:28I mean, you got to compliment the house.
35:31This looks awesome.
35:33This, this is what we wanted.
35:34This contemporary look.
35:35I love the landscaping.
35:36This is more me.
35:37This is more me.
35:37This is for the new phase of your life.
35:38Yes.
35:39This is my house.
35:40Our house.
35:41Well, what do you say we walk through that beautiful orange door?
35:44All right.
35:45Let's do it.
35:45Debbie, lead the way.
35:46Oh, my gosh.
35:48Wow.
35:50Wow.
35:51Wow.
35:53Debbie, lead the way.
35:54Oh, my gosh.
35:56Wow.
35:58Oh, my gosh.
36:03Amazing.
36:04Amazing.
36:04Wow.
36:05It is.
36:06I don't even know where to go.
36:07Wherever you want.
36:08Welcome home.
36:09This is crazy, right?
36:10Just to see it all together and done.
36:12Yeah.
36:13Yeah.
36:13Yeah.
36:14Spectacular.
36:14Yeah.
36:15My other house was dark.
36:16I love that it's nice and bright in here.
36:18I feel like both of you should get in your spotlight.
36:21Oh!
36:21Oh!
36:21So, Brian, you get your spotlight.
36:23I get mine.
36:23Debbie, you get your spotlight.
36:25And there's the stars in the show right there, right?
36:27Yeah.
36:28Exactly.
36:28Love it.
36:29This is awesome.
36:31Awesome.
36:32I love it.
36:32Now, are you guys going to be okay with only one island?
36:35I think one is going to be plenty.
36:37Good.
36:38I love the way this pops.
36:39It's pretty.
36:40Very pretty.
36:41Wow.
36:41The coffee bar.
36:42He makes my coffee every morning.
36:44Oh!
36:45Brian, take notes!
36:46You know what I love most about this kitchen?
36:47The tray detail in the ceiling makes it feel even bigger and gives a little extra character.
36:53Yes, it does.
36:53It absolutely does.
36:54And I love these lights.
36:56The lights are awesome.
36:57I feel like there's statement lighting throughout this entire house.
37:01And it really does speak true to, like, wanting to go a little bit more modern with this design.
37:05Mm-hmm.
37:05Yes.
37:06One of my favorite light fixtures is in the formal dining.
37:09Ah, nice.
37:12Beautiful.
37:13I love it.
37:13Look at that.
37:14Wow.
37:15That is formal dining at its finest.
37:17Yes.
37:17This is a really big dining room.
37:19It is.
37:19Yes.
37:19And I wanted it to be big so we could fit our family on the holidays.
37:23We already know that you need a home office, but then we also know that you like to craft.
37:28Whose do we want to explore first?
37:29Uh, Brian's.
37:30Yeah, how about mine?
37:32Brian.
37:33Yes, sir.
37:33After you.
37:34Home office.
37:35Wow.
37:37Oh, look at this.
37:38I love the fact that you guys went with these painted doors.
37:42This is a really cool way to, like, add design and it's not super expensive.
37:46It looks really good.
37:48What do you say we check out Debbie's space?
37:50Ooh.
37:52Wow.
37:55This is awesome.
37:56Sewing machine.
37:57Hey.
37:58You're ready to go.
37:58How cool.
37:59I love it.
38:00I'm so excited about this.
38:01I no longer have to craft in a bedroom.
38:03I have my own room.
38:04This is awesome.
38:05You can make a mess in here and then you can just close this door and no one will even
38:08know it's behind you.
38:09That's right.
38:10Plus, we know you're still going to be hosting family and guests, so shall we go see where
38:14the guests are going to be hanging out?
38:16Yes.
38:17All right, let's go check it out.
38:18Awesome.
38:20Oh.
38:21Ooh.
38:22Nice.
38:24Wow.
38:24And the floor plan makes sense because this is kind of tucked away from the other spaces,
38:28so a guest, anytime they're staying, you want them to feel like they kind of have their
38:31own privacy.
38:32They may not want to leave.
38:34Yes.
38:34Um, yeah, that could be a problem.
38:36Yes.
38:37All right, hey, enough about the temporary guests.
38:39Uh-oh.
38:40Let's see where the permanent guests will be residing.
38:43Ooh, yes.
38:43Absolutely.
38:44I'm ready.
38:44Let's head to the main suite.
38:45Love that.
38:45All right.
38:46Other side of the house.
38:50Wow.
38:51Look at this.
38:53Oh, my gosh.
38:54Look at the chandelier.
38:56Wow.
38:57I've never had a chandelier in the bathroom.
38:59Oh, you deserve it.
39:00How exciting.
39:01Beautiful.
39:01It's fancy.
39:02Yes.
39:03So you've got the double vanity, a ton of storage, and then keeping the painted doors
39:07throughout.
39:08It's like every room kind of ties together.
39:10Mm-hmm.
39:10Yes.
39:10I like it.
39:11Very nice.
39:11It gets better, though.
39:12Shall we check out the main bedroom?
39:14Let's see it.
39:16Oh, this is nice.
39:17Do you like the size of this?
39:18I do.
39:19Your bedroom right now has a lot of space because you have that whole seating area.
39:23Yes.
39:23Even though this is smaller, you still can have that.
39:26I know.
39:26This is awesome.
39:27Oh, yes.
39:27Are you ready to see your new water view?
39:30Water view?
39:31Yes.
39:31Water view?
39:32Okay.
39:33Let me open the door for the ladies.
39:35Oh, thank you.
39:36What about me?
39:36Such a gentleman.
39:37Oh, you can be nice.
39:40Wow, look at this.
39:41I love how y'all put orange everywhere.
39:44Everywhere.
39:45It's so nice.
39:46It's so nice.
39:47I love it.
39:48It's great.
39:48Guess where else we put orange?
39:49Where?
39:50Ooh.
39:51The orange fire.
39:53How cool is that?
39:53That's amazing.
39:54That is so nice.
39:55That is great.
39:56Isn't that fun?
39:57We know that it's gonna be different not living on the lake.
40:00This was a way to give you that water and fire element all in one.
40:05I love the surprise.
40:06I can start the fire with a flick of a match and then the water feature.
40:10Just that sound and hearing that's very soothing.
40:13The only thing that draws my attention more than this nice gathering area.
40:17The biggest toy box in Tampa.
40:19All right, Brian.
40:20The moment you've been waiting for.
40:21Right?
40:22I think you're gonna need more toys.
40:24I really do.
40:24Sorry.
40:24No.
40:25Sorry.
40:27Oh, here we go.
40:28Here we go.
40:28Let's do it.
40:29Oh, wow.
40:30Look at this.
40:31Look at this.
40:33Wow.
40:34He's like a little kid again.
40:35Yeah.
40:35I'm telling you, right?
40:36He's already brainstorming how he's gonna fill this thing up.
40:40Yeah.
40:40Camper's gonna go on this little bit larger side.
40:42Bay boat in the middle and then my smaller boat over here.
40:45I'm ready to get to work.
40:46Yeah.
40:47We're definitely gonna miss you guys in the neighborhood, but we know you're closer to family now.
40:51Yeah.
40:51Even though you downsized, I mean, this house is right around 2,800 square feet.
40:55Yeah.
40:55But it still has four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, plus your office and your craft rooms.
41:00We kept it in your budget of $925,000.
41:03That's beautiful.
41:04You guys did a great job.
41:05Thank you so much.
41:06We're excited for our new adventure, our new season in life.
41:09Yeah.
41:09And thank you for letting us be a part of it.
41:11All right.
41:11See you guys later.
41:12It feels really good to see space that we designed and it's our space.
41:18It's gonna be a happy place.
41:20It's gonna be happy memories.
41:21And it's just gonna be so joyful for us to make new memories with our family and friends in this
41:26house.
41:26I'm very excited about starting the life here.
41:30Hey.
41:31Hey.
41:31Welcome to our new home.
41:33Come on in.
41:34Wow.
41:36This is so good.
41:37Are you getting something?
41:38This is huge.
41:40Huge.
41:40It's so much more different than your old house.
41:43Nice and white and bright.
41:44Yeah, I like it though.
41:46It seems more homey.
41:47I like how open it is.
41:48Molly.
41:49Come here, Molly.
41:50Right here.
41:51Come on, sit down.
41:51She likes her new home.
41:53Yeah.
41:53We're gonna have a lot of great memories to make here too, right?
41:56That's right.
41:57New memories.
