Military Families Duplex Built by HGTV Revival

Status: FAMILY OWNED

In a show first, the HGTV revival surprised two military families with a duplex in a community built specifically for veterans.

The Story

Both families had struggled to adjust to civilian life after active duty. The show enlisted volunteers to construct a home designed for their unique needs in a supportive veteran community.

A New Model

This episode represented the show’s evolution – focusing on community integration and support networks, not just impressive architecture. The veteran community setting provided ongoing support that isolated dream homes never could.
