Chip and Joanna Gaines flipped a lakehouse to celebrate 10 years of "Fixer Upper."
They used midcentury modern design in the home, which was built in 1965.

Chip and Joanna Gaines have officially been household names for a decade, as the first full season of "Fixer Upper" premiered on HGTV in 2014.

Since their first show premiered, the Gaineses have created an empire through their home renovation series, the Magnolia network, the brick-and-mortar stores they opened in their hometown of Waco, Texas, and more.

In recent years, they've documented their renovation projects through spin-offs of their hit series, like "Fixer Upper: The Castle" and "Fixer Upper: The Hotel."

To mark a decade of the "Fixer Upper" franchise, Chip and Joanna flipped a lakehouse in Waco and documented the experience in a six-episode series called "Fixer Upper: The Lakehouse."

Take a look inside the renovated home.
