Four Nassau houses are being featured this month in the popular House Hunters International show aired by Home and Garden Television on Cable Channel 22.<\/P><\/p>\n
Episode 107, “Dream Home in The Bahamas,” aired for the first time on Monday night, and was repeated yesterday.<\/P><\/p>\n
The half-hour programme repeats on May 5 at 10.30pm and May 6 at 2.30am.<\/P><\/p>\n
“My phone hasn’t stopped ringing since the show started last night,” said realtor Sara Parker, a licensed Bahamas Real Estate Association broker with World Developers Limited.<\/P><\/p>\n
“I’ve had calls from Missouri and emails from all over saying what fantastic publicity the show is for the Bahamas.<\/P><\/p>\n
“The Rollins family was wonderful on film. They really showed off the Bahamas – from the beaches to their new dream house with incredible tropical views. I’m so happy to have found it for them.”<\/P><\/p>\n
The episode, according to the HGTV website, features Donna and Patrick Rollins’ four-bedroom home in Nassau, which “just is not big enough for the couple and their four growing kids.”<\/P><\/p>\n
“We did find our dream home,” said Patrick Rollins, owner of Wood You furniture store, which has branches in Nassau and Marsh Harbour, Abaco.<\/P><\/p>\n
The HGTV feature on Bahamian homes came about as the result of Mrs Parker’s response to House Hunter’s emailed invitation.<\/P><\/p>\n
“They liked my story of the Rollins family search for just the right house for their big family, two small sons and two teen daughters, complicated by Patrick’s need for high ceilings and lots of space. “Roger Sands, appraiser at Levi Gibson Realty, shot the taped audition with the Rollins Family for me Now, the producers have invited me to host another show, plus I’ve given thm leads on other homes owned by former residents now living in Amsterdam and Mexico. I’ve really enjoyed the process,” she said.<\/P><\/p>\n
The homes featured in House Hunters are all in the East of New Providence. “La Casona” is a large colonial building which crowns the Sans Souci hill-top and is filled with wood and sea views on a large terraced lot. “SpinDrift” is smaller but in immaculate condition on a large lot with sea views.
\nThe third house is in Winton Heights with large rooms, a big pool and a stunning garden views, all with an “Out of Africa” ambiance.<\/P><\/p>\n
“Because the Rollins family has done such a beautiful job of turning their EastWood home into a show piece with 12-foot ceilings, rose wood floors and an outdoor kitchen and pool area, I just can’t wait to see their renovation of their new Bahamas Dream Home,” said Mrs Parker.<\/P><\/p>\n
