Scott McGillivray Transforms a Decrepit Vacation Home into a Funky Farmhouse

When Nadia and Anwar bought their farmhouse, it was with the idea of creating family memories with their kids and maybe bringing in a little income on the side. However, they needed a lot of help. From the second you walked through the front doors, the property was rotting — it hosted every kind of critter and crawly possible, and there was an absolute stench coming from the bathroom walls.

So they called Scott McGillivray, designer Debra Salmoni and the Vacation House Rules team for (major) help. See how Scott’s crew transformed this decrepit pit of a property into the funky farmhouse rental of vacationers’ dreams.

Watch Scott’s Vacation House Rules  on Home Network. It is also available on the Global TV App and on STACKTV with Amazon Prime Video Channels and Rogers.
