Over the last six years, Erin and Ben have transformed 70 homes and buildings on Home Town. We’ve watched their style and color take on a new form in each episode to match the personalities of those who will live there. It’s been a challenge, but we’ve narrowed down to the top 10 favorite kitchens from the past five seasons. Do you remember any of these kitchens and what house would you add to our list?

The Douglas Home

Gwen and Mike chose a house where they can entertain friends in a walkable neighborhood. Ben and Erin give the place a complete facelift, add a coastal color scheme, a built-in banquet, and a back patio that’s perfect for entertaining!

They are inspired by Ben and Erin’s work beautifying Laurel and want to make a similar investment in the community to help bring the pride of ownership to areas that haven’t been cared for as much as others. Ben and Erin give the house a colorful makeover adding a classic Craftsman front porch and swing, stunning kitchen and a cozy master bedroom.

The Berry-DeMonte House

Josh & Giorgio wanted to have a vacation home in Mississippi, where Giorgio is originally from.

The Turner House

Charlie and Melissa Turner were offered a Manse as part of their compensation with the Ellisville Presbyterian Church. With 5 children and only 3 bedrooms – the place was cramped. With an all in budget of $85,000, Ben and Erin showed them a solid plan to update the Manse and turn it into a living space that would be suitable for their family of 7. Erin and Ben created their dream kitchen and used their go-to blue to make it pop.
