The Search is Over

During Season 3 of Ugliest House in America, host Retta traveled across five regions of the United States to find — you guessed it — the ugliest house in America. After touring 15 semi-finalist homes, she called in Windy City Rehab's Alison Victoria to give the winner a much-needed $150,000 home renovation.

The Lucky Winners!

In Manassas, Virginia, Alex bought a house for him, his parents and his sister to share. The expansive home not only fits their living needs but provides office space for work-from-home days. However, the overall style of the interior wasn't exactly what the family was looking for, and though they originally thought they could update it with cosmetic fixes, they quickly realized they were in way over their heads.

Before: House Exterior

Take a peek above the front door for your first glimpse of why Retta tagged this home, “The House of the Gilded Angel.” The stained-glass window features an enormous cherub: the first of many. Note the overgrown landscaping and tired exterior in need of a little TLC.

After: House Exterior

Initially Alison wanted to paint the entire brick exterior blue, but the homeowners were hesitant. She opted to leave the brick as it was and use the chic, dark blue shade on the home's shutters, front door, garage doors and window surrounds.
