The Tunnel
S31E01 Newton Centre; Welcome to Newton Centre
The 30th anniversary season of This Old House kicks off as the team embarks on an elegant addition to a 1915 Dutch Colonial Revival, featuring a new kitchen, home office, and family room. Homeowners Bill and Gillian Pierce cherish their historic home but find it lacking in family-friendly space and a modern kitchen. Architect Paul Rovinelli shares his vision for the expansion, while issues arise in both the basement and the landscaping of the existing structure. Host Kevin O'Connor explores a nearby renovated house, and general contractor Tom Silva, joined by master carpenter Norm Abram, starts the demolition process with Bill, successfully removing the three-season porch and making significant progress.
