Every home deserves a Hollywood ending.
THEY MAY NOT BE THE FIRST PEOPLE WHO COME TO MIND when thinking about house flipping, but actors Corbin Bersen and Amanda Pays are passionate about reviving diamonds in the rough.
Open House: Reinventing Space for Simple Living chronicles the couple’s journey from building a lavish dream home together through flipping houses out of a shared passion for design and renovation.
Lessons Learned
The couple’s first project was meant to be their dream home: a no-expense-spared house in which they would raise their sons and remain close to their work in Hollywood. They tore down walls to create ample natural light and imported luxuries—like a claw-foot tub from England. But when Corbin’s show was canceled and an earthquake damaged the house, the couple decided it was time to try something new. To start fresh, they moved to Surrey, England, back to the countryside of Amanda’s childhood.
