They want their money to go into a home they own instead, but their search has been stalled by unsuccessful offers. They're looking for a four-bedroom house with a garden and a living room big enough for two televisions so the pair can enjoy their separate hobbies together. One particular property really hits the mark, but with other interested parties Kirstie must draw on her years of experience to ensure Antoinette and Matt aren't pipped at the post yet again. Meanwhile, Phil is searching in and around charming Chichester with Catherine, who wants a fresh start following the end of her marriage. Three-bedrooms and a short commute to work are priorities, but that narrows the pool of potential properties. Phil tries a couple of curve balls, but ultimately location wins out over size and Catherine finds a house she thinks is the one | |
