HGTV was recently in the Boise area and filmed a episode of their 'Showhouse, Showdown' here! The took two identical homes built by Tahoe Homes - gave two professional designers the identical budget and had a competition to see who could create the best interior decor.
The public could view them over the weekend and the Real Estate community was invited this week to view them also.
Wow - what a neat thing to see. Both homes are beautiful, both have some interesting design concepts to them also. I definitely have a favorite - as did many of the agents that I saw there and overheard as we were walking back and forth to see them. These partiuliar homes were both patio type homes, with rear alley garages. Spacious homes, small patio/yards and all the storage of a 3 car garage even!
Both homes are in Harris Ranch - a wonderful section of SE Boise that sits right up against the foothills and is close to the greenbelt, Lucky Peak Resevoir and right down the road from Idaho Shakesphere outdoor theatre! Amazing location - you can bike, hike and explore with all the beautiful paths through out the area.

Idaho's Botantical Garden is also right down the road. An amazing place to see a concert or in the winter wander the garden that is lite up with thousands of tiny lights for the Garden a Glow.
So much to do in beautiful Boise - no wonder HGTV chose to film an episode here! Be sure to watch for it coming up in their fall line up!

Today I had the pleasure of volenteering for a new HGTV show...
It was taped here in Boise Idaho
with former Bachelor star Bob Guiney as the Host of the show!
The premise of the show is two local designers compete in decorating a home.
Both homes are newly constructed and are the same floor plan....
Designers have the same budget and same rules for each home.
This morning 150 local folks got to have the chance to vote on which home they liked best!
They filmed both Designers winning the show and will air the final show some time in November!
At this point neither of the designers or the public know who the actual winners were!
Filming was done in the beautiful Boise Foothills as a back drop in
the subdivision Harris Ranch.
Both Homes were built by Tahoe Homes

Heard Bob Guiney talking after the show and Boise had the biggest reception of guests from the community of any other location...over 1000 releases were signed by folks that they could be on the show!
He was a pretty ordinary guy....just doing a job....I couldn't believe how down to earth he was ....just like he appeared on TV.....
I wanted to take pictures but they asked that we didn't so that the show wasn't compromised!!!
It was a great experience...I was the last shift so there wasn't a whole lot to do....but \
Hey
I got a T-Shirt!!!
