Bachelor Mansion Takeover Season 1: Love and Design Collide on HGTV

Get ready, Bachelor Nation, because the iconic mansion is getting its biggest makeover yet! HGTV's new series, Bachelor Mansion Takeover, premieres in 2026, bringing 12 fan-favorite alumni back to the estate where they once sought love, but this time, they’re swapping roses for power tools. The ultimate prize? A $100,000 cash prize and bragging rights for the best room redesign.

Hosted by the ever-charming Jesse Palmer, this competition will see former contestants from The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, The Golden Bachelor, and The Golden Bachelorette face off in a series of home renovation challenges. The alums, described by HGTV as having "expert renovation skills," will compete to transform various spaces, including both familiar parts of the mansion and never-before-seen rooms.

The competition heats up with Bachelor Nation alumni Tayshia Adams and Tyler Cameron returning as judges. They'll be joined by a new guest judge each week to critique the contestants' designs. As the drama unfolds and eliminations pile up, only one alum will be crowned the renovation champion.

This HGTV-Bachelor mashup is a must-watch for anyone who has ever dreamed of redesigning the legendary residence. Follow the journey, root for your favorite former suitor, and see the legendary mansion get the stunning facelift it deserves.
