An Animal Crossing: New Horizons player managed to hide a secret superhero fortress in their character’s cleverly mapped out home design.

ACNH’s incredible customization tools allows players to craft nearly any kind of build their creative minds can conjure.

‘Home Inspector Joe’ Makes a ‘Bold’ Bathroom Design Choice You Absolutely Must See

Jaime E. Love

Joe Mazza, the host of HGTV’S new show “Home Inspector Joe,” finally finds a house with very few problems. That is, until the renovation starts.

In the episode “Stone Home Stuck in Time,” Mazza and his go-to designer, Noel Gatts, meet their new client, Marlon, who is hoping to create a family homestead where he, his mother, sister, and brother-in-law can live.

Marlon buys a beautiful $535,000 home in Hopewell Junction, NY—and while it seems at first that the 1970s house is in good shape, Joe is surprised to discover that the patio needs to be completely replaced, which will cost at least $20,000.

Marlon had originally hoped to spend no more than $115,000 on the renovations, but with all the repairs, this project ends up costing $148,500, well over his maximum budget. This is a pricey renovation, but in the end, it’s well worth it.
