Ep 10. Living Through Renovations on North Padre Island, Texas

Living Through Renovations on North Padre Island, Texas is the 10th episode of the first season of Beachfront Bargain Hunt: Renovation. In this episode, a couple, Chris and Morgan, are on the hunt for a beachfront property on North Padre Island, Texas. With a budget of $300,000, they are looking for a fixer-upper they can renovate and turn into their dream vacation home.

The episode begins with the couple meeting their real estate agent, Lisa, who takes them to see three potential properties. The first property they see is a two-bedroom, one-bathroom house that needs a lot of work. The second property is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house that needs some cosmetic upgrades, but has a great view. The third property is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house that is move-in ready, but out of their budget.

After much deliberation, Chris and Morgan decide to purchase the second property for $255,000. The house is in a great location with a beautiful view, but is in need of some updates, including new flooring, a new kitchen, and a new bathroom.

The couple begins working on the renovations themselves, with the help of some family and friends. They start by tearing out the old carpet and installing new laminate flooring throughout the house. They also tackle the kitchen, updating the cabinets, countertops, and appliances. In the bathroom, they install a new vanity, toilet, and shower.

Throughout the renovation process, the couple faces many challenges, including finding asbestos in the ceiling, which delays their progress. They also struggle with the Texas heat and humidity, which makes it difficult to work outside.

Despite the challenges, Chris and Morgan are determined to make the house their own. They put their personal touches on the house by painting the walls vibrant shades of blue and yellow, and adding beachy decor like seashells and starfish.

As the renovations near completion, the couple reflects on all the hard work they've put into the house. They've transformed a dated and rundown house into a beautiful beachfront property, complete with all the amenities they were looking for.

In the end, Chris and Morgan's dream of owning a beachfront property on North Padre Island, Texas has become a reality. They can't wait to enjoy their home away from home and create new memories on the beach with family and friends.
