Chip and Joanna Gaines Paid $5.5 Million for Colorado Retreat at the Center of New Fixer Upper Series

The limited series documents a full gut renovation that also introduces daughter Ella’s design debut.

Overview

  • Located in Pitkin County near Aspen, the property sits on two wooded acres above the Roaring Fork River with 115 feet of private frontage.
  • The estate comprises a 3,662-square-foot main house and two adjacent cottages measuring roughly 680 and 373 square feet.
  • Public records show the home was previously listed as high as $7.5 million, reduced to $6.5 million, then sold in November 2024 for $5.5 million to an LLC linked to the family.
  • Joanna plans to strip both floors to the studs, rework the layout to add bedrooms, and move the kitchen to better fit their multigenerational needs while preserving midcentury character.
  • Fixer Upper: Colorado Mountain House airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. ET on Magnolia Network and HGTV with same-day streaming on HBO Max and discovery+, with its three-episode run spanning December 9 to 23.
