The multitalented power couple Chip and Joanna Gaines have the Midas touch—and they’ve struck again. Featured on “Fixer Upper,” the Baker House is back on the market and racking up clicks like crazy.

It’s listed for $359,500, and it’s this week’s most popular home on realtor.com®.

Magnolia Nation first fell in love with the house when Chip and Joanna gave it a makeover during the final season of their HGTV hit show.

It came on the market in 2018, shortly after an episode about its renovation appeared on the show. Still filled with plenty of the desirable Gaines aesthetic, it’s now available for another buyer who’s wild about Waco.

Besides the Baker House, this week’s list was crammed with off-the-wall dream properties.

1. 3829 Herwol Ave, Waco, TX

Price: $359,500

Why it’s here: You remember it from season five of “Fixer Upper.” The Baker House episode told the story of Patti Baker, who bought a little Waco bungalow for $162,500. She then enlisted the Magnolia experts to give it a masterful makeover.

Chip and Jo proceeded to put another $88,000 of improvements into the property and created an absolutely adorable result.

The two-bedroom home boasts custom Gaines upgrades, like the concrete countertops, and is filled with Joanna’s clever, lovely, and functional signature touches.

However, soon after the remodel, Baker fell in love with her pastor and moved a few hours away.

A California couple purchased the home in 2018 as “an adventure” but now that they aren’t spending as much time in the area, they’re ready to sell. And although the furniture is different from what you saw on the episode, the structural changes made on the show remain exactly the same.
