Introduction
It's official: The renovation on Jonathan Scott and Zooey Deschanel's "dream home" is finally complete. And the pics are perfection.
The residence—which they dubbed "Park House"— was a "beautiful home with a lot of history," according to the Property Brothers star. But with a few modern updates, Scott turned it into a Pinterest-worthy space for his family.
While discussing their new home, Deschanel admitted that it was love at first sight. "As soon as we pulled into the driveway, we knew this house was special," she said. Scott added, "The abundant trees on the property make it the perfect place for kids— and maybe a kid at heart named Drew—to climb and play, and for us to watch them as we sit in the shade."
The renovation took two years to complete due to the pandemic, supply chain and other issues. "It was really hands-on for both of us," Deschanel admitted. "Many Saturdays, we sat searching for the right details to add to this home." This included everything from colorful wallpaper to modern fixtures. She continued, "This is a house that suits our tastes and needs, aesthetically and functionally."
One of Deschanel's requests included adding a solarium with a glass ceiling, olive trees and a water feature. Scott transformed an ordinary porch into a natural light sanctuary. "Jonathan knows whether an idea is practical or not," the actress said. "And he knew just how to turn this patio on the asymmetrical side of the house into a solarium."
To celebrate their new home, Scott gifted a grand piano to Deschanel. "One of my favorite things is coming home to Zooey playing music," he said.
The TV personality also used nothing but the best in terms of technology. "It still looks like it could be a 100-year-old home, but it's now LEED-certified and will end up using less grid energy than a small apartment," he explained. "This isn't just a smart house. It's a genius one."
