Ep 59. You Gotta Downsize to Upgrade in the Hague

In the House Hunters International Season 31 Episode 59, viewers get the chance to follow a couple as they search for a new, smaller home in the Netherlands. The episode, titled "You Gotta Downsize to Upgrade in the Hague," takes place in the city of The Hague, where the couple has decided to move to downsize and simplify their lives.

The episode starts with the couple discussing their decision to move to The Hague, as they feel like their current home is too big and too expensive. They want to downsize and find a smaller, more affordable home that will allow them to live comfortably without needing to work as hard.

The couple starts their search by meeting with local real estate agents, who show them a few different properties in the city center. They initially have a hard time finding something small enough for their budget while still having enough space for their needs, but eventually, they find a few properties that fit the bill.

One of the properties they view is a small apartment located in a historic building near the city center. The apartment has a charming, old-fashioned style with tall windows and lots of natural light. It also has a small balcony where the couple can enjoy their morning coffee while watching the city come to life.

Another property they view is a modern studio located in a newly built apartment complex outside of the city center. While the studio is quite small, it has a functional layout that maximizes the available space and includes a full kitchen, a sleeping area, and a small living area. The apartment complex also includes a rooftop terrace with stunning views of the city, which the couple loves.

The third and final property they view is a small, two-bedroom house located in a quiet residential area just outside of the city. The house has a traditional Dutch architecture style, with a pitched roof and a charming front porch. While the house is slightly over their budget, they love the peaceful location and the potential to turn one of the bedrooms into a home office.

Throughout the episode, viewers get to see the couple weigh the pros and cons of each property before ultimately making a decision. They discuss their priorities, such as location, layout, and price, and take into account their personal preferences, such as style and charm.

In the end, the couple chooses a property that perfectly fits their needs and budget. They are excited to move into their new home and start their downsized, simplified life in The Hague. Viewers will be left feeling inspired to consider downsizing themselves and enjoying the benefits of living small.
