They filed permits for the house in 2019 and it was completed in 2020

The permit describes the home as a residential one-story 1,403 square-foot house. 

According to the plans filed, there is a private front and back porch. 

The home has an open floor plan, as the front door opens to the living room, and then to the kitchen and dining rooms. 

To the left, there is a hallway that leads to three bedrooms, a laundry room and one bathroom.

The master suite features a second bathroom and walk-in closet.

The home was completed on May 1, 2020 and cost the couple $133,270.97.

Joe’s dad Jim Bob initially sold the over eight-acre land to his son and daughter-in-law for $5,000 in May 2018. 

Jim Bob, 55, and Michelle, 54, initially purchased the home in 2014 for $57,000.

GIFTED HOME?

Joe and Kendra sold 1.66 acres to her parents Gene “Paul” and Christina Caldwell, who have nine children, on July 30, 2021 for just $10,000 in a “split parcel sale.”

The outside of the home on The Caldwell Family’s Instagram page matches the exterior of the yellow home, sparking speculation that they have been living there with their brood.

According to Instagram photos, the kitchen has white cabinets with black hardware, and white and gray countertops. 

The kitchen also has an island and stainless steel appliances. 

One of the bathrooms has the same cabinets and countertops. 

The home has gray wood floors and carpeting throughout.

There is also a staircase leading to an open den area. 

Property records don’t show a second home was built on the land.

As for Joe and Kendra, they live in a log cabin on the Duggar compound with their three children.

Kendra was expecting her third child at the same time Christina was pregnant with her ninth. 

Christina is a stay-at-home mother, while her husband is a pastor and in the car business. 

SHOW CANCELLATION

As fans know, Counting On was canceled after 11 Seasons following oldest son Josh’s April 2021 arrest on child pornography charges. 

Josh, 33, was found guilty of possessing and receiving child pornography on December 9 after a nearly two-week trial.

His sentencing has been set for April 5 and he faces 40 years in prison.

Josh’s legal team filed a motion for an acquittal of the guilty verdict, a new trial, or the dismissal of the possession of child pornography charge, as they argued there is no evidence he personally viewed the child pornography found on his HP desktop computer. 

Prosecutors fired back by claiming “the evidence of the defendant’s guilt is clear and overwhelming.”

A judge has yet to rule on the requests.
