The age-old struggle between old-house charm and new-build convenience takes center stage in this Friday’s “House Hunters.” Set in Columbus, Ohio, “Cozy vs. Condo in Columbus” follows a pair of newlyweds on the hunt for their first home together. But their visions of domestic bliss are, shall we say, slightly out of alignment.

The wife is all about the cozy character of an older home, something reminiscent of her childhood. The husband, however, favors the low-maintenance lifestyle of a modern, move-in ready townhouse. Think hardwood floors versus no yard work.
