MANHATTAN BEACH, CA — The dream of renovating your own home can quickly turn into a nightmare as one local Manhattan Beach family recently found out.
But fortunately for Brandy and Steve Hattendorf, who lost hope with their Manhattan Beach fixer-upper, TLC stars Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent are here to help. The couple and their three children will be featured this weekend on the hit show "Nate & Jeremiah by Design” as the latest pair of distressed homeowners in need of rescuing.
According to The Beach Reporter, the Hattendorfs bought the home for about $1.8 million with plans to lovingly renovate the 1,300 square-foot house built in 1949.
