Too Small For Their Family
In 2012, Chip and Joanna bought a farmhouse together. It was a small place that came with an attic and only two bedrooms. This was much too tiny for them since there were seven people in the family. It was a good thing that they did not mind the size of the house! The truth is that they were more concerned with the size of the land. Among other things, they fell in love with the oak trees near the farmhouse. While they would have to spend some time fixing up the place, they did not mind. However, how would they turn a two-bedroom house into something big enough for seven people?

Longer Than They Expected
Back then, they had no idea how long the project was going to take. In the end, they spent 18 months on it! After all, they still had to set aside time to work on other properties for their clients. They found a lot of gems as they worked on renovating the farmhouse. Among other treasures, they found paperwork about the house from 1895! Even so, it was hard to determine just how old the house was. This only made Joanna fall even more in love with it. She adored the idea that it had its very own story.
