Finally! This Old House has noticed our quaint little town. The TV series is looking for a historic home to renovate in The Big Apple.

They are looking for a “dynamic” family, but I’m pretty sure that any New Yorker is more dynamic than those small town shmoes they have on the show. Yeah, that’s right. I said it.

You needn’t be renovating an entire house, but more than just one room. Renovations must be completed in about 4-5 months, with construction beginning as early as August. I guess that leaves me out. My renovations take at least 2 years per room.

Renovations are completely funded by the homeowners, though This Old House throws in product discounts and donations.

The episodes will be on PBS in early 2009. Deadline for submissions is Friday, July 4, 2008.

Here are the guidelines:

*Brief description of the house including house style and year built

*Low-res digital pictures of the home’s interior and exterior

*Brief description of the current owners

*Low-res digital pictures of the homeowners

*The scope of the renovation

*How much you plan to spend

*When you need to start and conclude the project
