House Hunters International (2006)

Season 23: Episode 5

Mississippi native Amanda fell in love with Darren and moved to his native England, only to fall in love with the country as well. Now after the birth of their twins and years of renting, the young couple hopes to buy their first family home. They are searching in the county of Hertfordshire, a close commute to Darren's job in London. Although Amanda loves the English lifestyle and has even taken on the accent, her ideas of spacious living are all-American. The couple is looking for a 2 bedroom home in a village setting, but while Amanda dreams of a English cottage with lots of space, Darren has his sights set on a modern property. Real estate agent Katie Mardell tries to find middle ground AND work within their $400,000 budget. Will the house hunt make Amanda's cottage dreams come true or is this wayward southerner in for a reality check? Find out when House Hunters International travels to merry old England.
