Third Generation Owner Transforms Pioneer Farmhouse
The Fraseurs remodeled their Tipton Iowa home on Highway 150, updating the front porch into a sunroom, enlarging the back porch into a heated garage, and adding a new bathroom, sunroom, and living spaces. They reused old materials, added new windows, repainted woodwork, installed carpet, and kept the local house’s historic character while improving energy efficiency. The project spanned about six months with work largely by the couple and included alterations to the doorway, doorway repurposing, and a new arch between living and dining rooms. The kitchen retained its layout and green linoleum while the dining room gained a modern touch and a large window.
