"They added it and rebuilt the kitchen based on exactly what they saw on the set and the frames from the TV," Brown says. "They matched every color, every cabinet, everything we could, everything they could to look perfect." After adding a second floor to the home, the bulk of renovations went into the kitchen. "HGTV spent about $5.5M+ purchasing and building the house which is why we listed it at $5.5M even though we knew it was an aspirational list price," Brown said in a statement.

Is The Brady Bunch House real?

It goes without saying, potential buyers touring the property are blown away by the nostalgia that immediately hits them upon entering the home. "Especially [since it's] the Brady house, because every person in America, they think this house is their house and it really is." "As for Lance Bass, my brother from another mother, perhaps third time's a charm?" Brown said of the singer and podcast host's dream to own the classic home. The bedroom built to resemble the Brady brothers' room features a bunk bed and another bed, all decked out in blue bedspreads, while another bedroom for the Brady sisters includes three beds in matching pink bed linen. Trahan told "The Wall Street Journal" she plans on hosting charitable events and fundraisers at her new home, which she described as "a life-size dollhouse."

” Spencer teamed up with Plumb to recreate Alice’s room, which is located at the back of the house. The two went thrifting in New York City for small items, made their way to Connecticut to pick up furniture, and Plumb even added a needlepoint mini pillow made by Ann B. Davis herself. Also, as part of the second episode, Good Bones stars Mina Starsiak Hawk and Karen E Laine tackled three rooms—the boys’ room, the girls’ room, and the Jack and Jill bathroom. This time, Olsen was paired up with Lookinland and the two went thrift shopping. While many millennials did not witness the original run of "The Brady Bunch" sitcom, most of us watched reruns of the show on Nick at Nite during the 1990s.

So HGTV enlisted the help of viewers to help find authentic 1970s artifacts that were in good condition, taking the designers on a cross-country search for items. The house wasn't used for interior shots during the show's filming, meaning that HGTV was going to have to renovate a house that never included things like the iconic stairway in order to project the Brady look. The network purchased the midcentury Studio City home in 2018 for $3.5 million, nearly twice the asking price, before filming a gut renovation that matched the famous exterior to replicas of the sitcom's set. “Reportedly it is the 2nd most photographed home in the USA after the White House. Own a piece of pop culture history and pay homage to American sitcom television," the listing added. The network documented the process on “A Very Brady Renovation,” which featured the six actors who played the Brady children.

The house in North Hollywood is on the market for $5.5 million.

HGTV has announced that the renovation of the iconic “Brady Bunch” house is now complete. The network spent another $1.9 million to transform the house to resemble the home where America came to know Mike, Carol, Greg, Marcia, Peter, Jan, Bobby and Cindy Brady. HGTV added a second story to accommodate enough space for the rooms seen in the show.

The home design network decided to turn the interior into a spitting image of the show’s set, enlisting several stars like Drew and Jonathan Scott to assist in the renovation. The home transformed on HGTV’s A Very Brady Renovation hit the market in May 2023 for a listing price of $5.5 million! The house, which was purchased by Tina Trahan for $3.2 million in September 2023, was designed to look like an exact replica of The Brady Bunch set. Photos of the North Hollywood, California, property will bring nostalgia to loyal fans of the ABC sitcom. The online listing for the midcentury house invites buyers to “own a piece of pop culture history,” and shows images of its detailed and polished 5,000-square-foot interior, which includes five bedrooms and bathrooms. After outbidding everyone in 2018 and plunking down $3.5 million for the famous sitcom home, HGTV just recently put it back on the market.

The HGTV stars nailed every detail of replicating the iconic Brady home entrance. The name of the fictional street where the action of The Brady Bunch TV show took place was Clinton Way. Mr. Brady and his three sons lived at 4222 Clinton Way, but the name of the town/city was never specified on the show.

The two actors recalled childhood memories of playing on the teeter-totter and spending time inside the doghouse, which they helped build. Olsen also picked out the artificial turf that was installed, and her TV siblings loved it. According to House Beautiful, this home is the second most photographed property in the United States. The first-place position, and rightly so, goes to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, better known as the White House. As they reported further, HGTV launched a show entitled "A Very Brady Renovation" connected with the famous house. For the modern HGTV show, experts transformed a house into a replica of the actual home used in the sitcom.

'Brady Bunch' Cast Reveals Which Family Member Would Be the Most Social Media Savvy (Exclusive)

HGTV said the home will come with “many of its contents, including customized pieces such as the green floral living room couch and the credenza with a 3-D printed horse sculpture.” The house will be available for sale beginning this month. However, the inside of the home looked nothing like the rooms seen on the show. That’s because scenes that let viewers into the Brady residence were filmed on sets at Paramount Studios in Hollywood on Soundstage 5. On Yelp others have reported the security truck blocking part of the view of the house on the street with comments that the guard was not very pleasant. So, unfortunately, it sounds like the experience can be hit or miss.  I went around 5 pm on a Saturday.

Wood paneling and furniture was extremely popular during the era of "The Brady Bunch," and a lot of it was installed in the house for the final reveal. Wood paneling has made a comeback in today's homes, but with different hues and stains for a gentler look.

Mike and Carol Brady's bedroom on "The Brady Bunch" was one of a few different bedrooms the designers were responsible for recreating. Heading back to the days of quilts, large lampshades, and wooden nightstands, pieces of this bedroom are classic enough to be used in a room today paired with modern stylings. The online listing for the home notes that "Reportedly it is the 2nd most photographed home in the USA after the White House." The project to transform "The Brady Bunch" home also reunited six original cast members, who joked at the time that HGTV paid "WAY too much" for the home. Although the Property Brothers are renovation pros, Drew and Jonathan might feel a little pressure with their important tasks.

He said the team eventually came up with the home value by basing their estimate on the values of the land the property stood on and the structure of the house itself. Stepping into the home was an emotional blast from the past for the cast, who used to film the series on a sound stage in Burbank, California. But the designers have tried to duplicate the home exactly how it was on the show, even crowdsourcing original props from fans. The entire restoration crew and Brady cast helped show ET the before and after of the home. A lot of work went into this project, but the hardest detail to duplicate was the iconic staircase because the house did not have a long one. Last, but not least, the third episode showed viewers how the Good Bones hosts, plus Olsen and Lookinland, reimagined the backyard.
