The Tunnel
S29E01 Newton: Move or Improve
In the premiere of This Old House's 30th anniversary season, the team embarks on an elegant addition to a 1915 Dutch Colonial Revival, enhancing the property with a brand-new kitchen, home office, and family room. Homeowners Bill and Gillian Pierce cherish their vintage home, yet it falls short in space, layout, and modern amenities. Architect Paul Rovinelli unveils his design for the expansion, while issues arise in both the basement and the surrounding landscape. Host Kevin O'Connor explores a nearby renovated home, and general contractor Tom Silva, alongside master carpenter Norm Abram, begins demolition with Bill, successfully removing the three-season porch by day’s end.
