Ashton Kutcher pretty much won Mother’s Day by unveiling an amazing present for his mum Diane. He’s renovated the basement of her house is Homestead, Iowa, and caught the reaction on camera.
The actor and his stepfather Mark hired a home-design company called Houzz to help with re-design, which took place in secret over 27 days and was captured for an episode of an upcoming internet series ‘My Houzz’. Apparently, he himself helped with original construction of the house over twenty years ago.

Kutcher, an investor in Houzz, was inspired to implement the rebuild “as a thank you for all she has done for him over the years,” according to a press release from the series obtained by Us Weekly.

“At the end of the day, it’s my way of saying thank you to my mom,” the former ‘Two and a Half Men’ actor said. “My mom has been the greatest influence in my life. My parents gave me everything. You know, they went to great sacrifices to give me the life that I have and anything that I can do to say thank you is the right thing to do.”
He continued: “So, if I can make this space special for mom and make it a space that she wants to go spend time in, and just really make it beautiful for her, that’d be fulfilling something I’ve always wanted to do.”
Kutcher, who is married to actress Mila Kunis and father to their seven month old daughter Wyatt, is renowned for his interest in investing in start-up companies. Recently, he was announced as a special advisor for a tech investment company, TPG Capital, alongside U2 singer Bono.
