According to WonderWall, the Fixer Upper power couple have purchased Cottonland Castle – a historic fixture in Waco, Texas.
The stone building’s construction began in 1890 and was finished in 1913. Over the years it has been owned by a multitude of people however, for most people the cost of maintaining a castle is a little high.
“I can confirm that [Chip and Joanna] has purchased the historic Cottonland Castle,” a spokesman for the Gaines’ said in a statement. “For nearly two decades, Chip and Joanna have admired the property as a hallmark of the Castle Heights neighborhood, they’ve even made past attempts to purchase it.”
According to WonderWall, the 6,700 square foot property was listed on the market for $425,000 and is in need of a lot of repair and restoration. It is unknown how much Chip and Joanna paid for the property.
