00:00 Welcome to luxury land, guys.

00:01 Wow.

00:02 What is this?

00:03 Heaven.

00:03 [LAUGHTER]

00:05 People all want luxury, but they don't want

00:07 to pay the luxurious price tag.

00:08 I want the quality of a yacht life

00:10 for the price of a pontoon.

00:11 We got you.

00:14 My name's Michelle, and I've designed

00:16 some of the most expensive homes in the country.

00:19 But my small-town roots have taught me one simple truth.

00:22 Everyone deserves luxury.

00:23 Are you kidding me?

00:25 This is amazing.

00:26 This is overwhelming.

00:28 So my team and I have figured out how to get that luxury

00:30 for less.

00:31 Maybe we can repurpose something,

00:33 recover it.

00:33 You're getting a lot of room.

00:35 You can get this tint paint for like $0.25 a gallon.

00:37 Really?

00:38 Luxury doesn't fix you.

00:39 All right.

00:39 This is a scratch and dent.

00:40 All we have to do is change that one panel.

00:42 You got your ring?

00:43 I want the money where we touch.

00:45 This looks really expensive.

00:47 What does that mean?

00:48 We don't have a lot of money.

00:49 Do you want to take to the good life, but not break the bank?

00:52 No pressure.

00:53 Oh my god.

00:55 I need a hug.

00:56 [LAUGHTER]

00:57 Oh my gosh.

00:59 [MUSIC PLAYING]

01:02 So we're meeting Marsha and Jeff.

01:10 OK.

01:10 And they got the cutest dog.

01:12 What's the dog say?

01:13 Baxter.

01:14 And that must be Baxter.

01:16 That's Baxter.

01:17 Hi.

01:17 Hey.

01:18 How are you?

01:18 Don't shoot.

01:19 Don't shoot.

01:19 Hi.

01:20 How are you?

01:21 Oh, hi.

01:22 I'm Ty.

01:23 I'm Marsha.

01:24 Nice to meet you.

01:25 I'm Jeff.

01:25 We've been married for 17 years.

01:29 Yes, a long time.

01:30 When I think luxury, I want there

01:32 to be a wow factor when people come into our house.

01:35 And when I come into my own house,

01:37 I want there to be a wow factor.

01:38 I look at the magazines, and I think, I want that.

01:41 We have $100,000 to spread out through the main floor.

01:46 Oh my gosh.

01:46 Look at him.

01:48 Isn't it adorable?

01:50 It's so yellow.

01:52 Yeah, it's a lot.

01:54 It's on the ceiling.

01:55 Also, these stair runners have seen better days.

01:58 You're right.

01:59 They're expensive to replace, but you guys definitely

02:01 need an upgrade.

02:02 Right.

02:03 It's time for a change.

02:04 Oh, and Kai, look at that chandelier.

02:06 Someone sent it back to Game of Thrones.

02:08 Basically.

02:09 Yeah.

02:09 But it does evoke a good mood, I got to tell you.

02:13 It continues to be yellow.

02:15 It's literally everywhere.

02:16 Everywhere.

02:19 And we should reorient the furniture, right, Kai?

02:21 Because when you walk in, this is like a barrier.

02:24 There's no television.

02:25 So why not face the couch towards the kitchen

02:27 where all the interaction is happening anyway?

02:30 Did you paint that fireplace?

02:31 I did.

02:32 So it's the red brick from the front of the house.

02:35 How do you feel about the mantel?

02:37 Is it a keeper?

02:38 No, it's dated.

02:40 It feels old fashioned.

02:42 I would love either a natural wood beam or something.

02:46 We've been here eight years, and so we haven't touched anything.

02:48 How long did you leave here before you

02:50 realized you wanted to renovate?

02:51 Maybe four years ago.

02:53 We started talking about it.

02:54 We had smaller kids.

02:55 We'd go over and fix things up.

02:57 They'd just trash it.

02:58 Trust me, I get it.

03:00 I actually see that a lot with clients that have young kids.

03:02 How old are your kids?

03:04 They're 11 and 14.

03:05 OK.

03:05 I know it's not OK for you guys to say this,

03:07 but the kids are older.

03:08 It's time for you to be selfish a little bit.

03:10 Let's indulge.

03:11 Let's get what you want.

03:12 When we first moved in, I loved the kitchen.

03:15 It was certainly an upgrade from our townhouse

03:18 that we lived in before we moved in here.

03:21 I didn't mind the dark countertops.

03:23 And then living in them, it's like, oh,

03:26 I can see all the crumbs.

03:28 And I can see all this.

03:30 Yes.

03:31 How do you feel about the backsplash?

03:32 Well, I mean, if we lived in New Mexico or Arizona.

03:38 Some things I'd like to replace in the house

03:40 are certainly the paint color, update the countertops

03:43 and the cabinets.

03:45 An island is a must have.

03:46 I want to have a giant island.

03:48 As far as material goes, I love the look of marble.

03:51 I'm just not so sure if we can afford it.

03:53 I want the quality of a yacht life

03:54 for the price of a pontoon.

03:57 That's great.

03:58 Immediately, we want to get rid of this wall.

04:00 And Marsha, I know that's really important to you.

04:01 And you want it all gone, right?

04:02 If possible.

04:03 It's likely something in there.

04:05 And we're probably going to have to integrate it into the island.

04:08 We should take the island this way.

04:10 I want all of this open, if that's OK with you.

04:12 Make the island a lot wider, right?

04:14 Minimum four feet deep.

04:16 That way, you've got prep surface and sink on this side.

04:19 That's all you, right?

04:20 And then on the other side, Jeff and the kids could be eating.

04:23 Or Jeff, maybe you're washing dishes.

04:24 Who knows? - We never know.

04:25 There could be a switch up.

04:26 There's always a first.

04:28 So Michelle, what are some ideas you had for this island?

04:31 You know I want a waterfall, guys.

04:33 A waterfall in the kitchen?

04:34 Is that really luxury nowadays?

04:36 Absolutely.

04:37 Wow.

04:38 You know what that means, right?

04:39 The countertop turns 90 degree angle

04:42 and goes down to the floor.

04:44 Oh, OK.

04:44 I thought it was an actual waterfall.

04:46 I thought it was an actual waterfall.

04:47 Wow, I didn't know that was luxury.

04:49 That would be luxury.
