Are you a fan of HGTV’s Fixer Upper? Step into the world of Chip and Joanna Gaines and experience the ultimate Waco getaway at The Giraffe House – the charming three-bedroom abode featured on HGTV’s Fixer Upper Season 4, Episode 15. This delightful home is the perfect retreat for anyone looking for a one-of-a-kind stay just minutes away from downtown Waco and all the Magnolia and Baylor hotspots.
While the home was originally celebrated on the show for its uniqueness from their other properties, it still features the signature Chip and Jo style that we all know and love. The Giraffe House exudes a cozy cottage vibe with modern upgrades and eclectic touches that will make you feel right at home.
Lounge on the inviting front porch swing, or head to the spacious backyard for a relaxing retreat. The open living room boasts stunning herringbone flooring salvaged from the bakery, while the pantry doors were a magnificent find from the garage renovation.
The fully equipped kitchen is ready for anything, while the upstairs bathroom is a true masterpiece with a wooden beam and rock from the house’s exterior. And if you need a quiet spot to unwind, the upstairs office/reading nook is the perfect place to kick back and relax.
While most of the homes featured on the show are chosen by couples looking for a new place to call home, this particular property received some special attention from Chip and Jo. The couple purchased it as an investment property before completely envisioning and remodeling the home. Originally owned and occupied by the Matsumotos, the brother of the director of Fixer Upper, since its sale, Jo has mentioned her adoration for the home, showing that it still has a special place in her heart.
