Los Angeles, May 6 (IANS): Actor Ashton Kutcher gave his mother Diane a surprise in honour of Mother's Day by remodelling his childhood house in Iowa with his fiance Mila Kunis, calling the project a lifelong dream.

Kutcher remodelled the house with the help of a home-remodelling website to express his gratitude for his mother's endless love. The actor also revealed that he and his stepfather Mark worked together to build the house when he was 13 years old, reports aceshowbiz.com.

"I think everybody has a place in their life that they call home, the renovation that we're going to be doing is on a place that I call home, and I'll always call home. It's a house that I helped build with my stepfather. It's on a gravel road in a little town called Homestead, Iowa," Kutcher said in a video made by the home-remodelling website.

Kutcher went on to explain that the project was important to him.

"It's my way of saying thank you to my mom. My mom has been the greatest influence in my life. My parents gave me everything. They went to great sacrifices to give me the life that I have and anything I can do to say thank you is the right thing," he said.
