Jim Blandings (Cary Grant) lives with his wife Muriel (Myrna Loy) and two daughters, Betsy (Connie Marshall) and Joan (Sharyn Moffett) in a cramped New York apartment. Muriel secretly plans to knock out a wall and remodel their apartment for $7,000 or $73,000 in 2017 dollars. The Blandings purchase a dilapidated, nearly 200-year old farmhouse on some 35 acres where General Gates stopped to water his horses during the Revolutionary War. The old house turns out to be structurally unsound and has to be torn down before
