Ep 12. Destined for relaxation, the Guldens scour Villas, NJ to find a retreat that offers peace of mind

The Guldens are on the hunt for their dream beachfront retreat in Villas, NJ, a quiet coastal town where the stresses of life can drift away with the tide. In this episode of Beachfront Bargain Hunt, the couple is Destined for Relaxation, and they're scouring the area for a retreat that offers peace of mind.

As they explore the options, the Guldens have a few must-haves in mind. They want a home that's close to the beach, but not too close - they don't want to be dealing with sand in their living room every day. They're also looking for a place with plenty of outdoor space, so they can enjoy the fresh air and mild temperatures that Villas has to offer.

One of the homes they look at is a charming bungalow just a block away from the beach. The location is perfect, and the exterior has plenty of curb appeal, but as they step inside, they realize that the home is much smaller than they anticipated. The layout is cramped, and there's no outdoor space to speak of. It's not quite the retreat they had in mind.

Another option is a larger home that's a bit further from the beach, but still within walking distance. The house has a beautiful wrap-around porch, perfect for enjoying the sea breeze, and a sizable backyard with a pool. As they tour the interior, the Guldens are delighted to find that the home has plenty of room for their family, with multiple bedrooms and living spaces. It's a contender, but they're not quite sold yet.

The third home they visit is a sprawling beachfront property with incredible ocean views. It's an entertainer's dream, with a large deck, outdoor bar and grill area, and plenty of space for guests. The interior is spacious and modern, with high-end finishes and lots of natural light. It seems like the perfect retreat, but there's a catch - the price tag is well above their budget.

The Guldens have some tough decisions to make, weighing the pros and cons of each property and considering how they fit into their budget and lifestyle. As they work with their real estate agent, they narrow down their options and eventually find the perfect home that checks all their boxes. It's a peaceful retreat that offers everything they need to unwind and enjoy the beachfront lifestyle.

As the episode comes to a close, the Guldens settle into their new home and reflect on their journey. They're thrilled with their choice and excited to start making memories in their new beachfront retreat. It's a happy ending to a search for relaxation that was truly destined to succeed.
