A Complete Tour of the Brady Bunch House | Open House TV

[@markleon411]

This house should remain as a museum. I would definitely pay for a tour.

You're in luck. The new owner is doing just that. $400 (per person) for an hour in the house.

this house is iconic, but more recent memories go to a Full House in San Francisco

[@lilth501]

For those of us who grew up watching the show it's kind of comforting because they are memories of our childhood even though we may never have physically experienced

[@Marchant2]

It's amazing how they got the inside of this house to match the house on the TV show especially considering that the actual house wasn't a two-story house and that the original floor plan was nothing like the TV house. What an incredible job they did here.

[@brittscott4673]

I'm glad you mentioned that because I thought they used the exterior of this house but all the indoor shots were done on a set.

[@Tes7000]

That is good to know, because I never thought the front facade of the house could ever have the interior floor plan we saw on tv.

[@TheShrededward]

I agree, except... the intereior is again, difficult to replicate with the exterior. The original studio brady bunch house had no second floor, as well as no toilets. I would really have to walk around this house because there's not enough floor space to fit the boys, girls, and parents rooms with what it looks like from the outside. I'd give it maybe two rooms at best. Not three rooms, and certainly not the big rooms the bradys had.

[@user_16309]

@@TheShrededward In the HGTV show of the remodel, the kid's rooms were built in a free-standing building the backyard. Just as on the set, there was no upstairs. Still, it's impressive.

[@Cmunic8]

@@TheShrededwardI agree the interior looks much larger than what the exterior would accommodate. It would have been interesting to see a more detailed look at the interior

[@cgschow1971]

They did an amazing job coordinating the interior layout within the confines of the exterior, which was never intended to be that way during production. Sourcing the decor and the props must have been quite a feat.

[@ChiselMouse]

The telephone in the kitchen was from Silver Bay, Minnesota. I'm surprised they didn't put the Bradys' number on the card in the middle of the dial.

[@sirbarryvee-eight6485]

"Sourcing the decor and the props must have been quite a feat." Nope. Not really. My parents had a yard sale and that would have provided at least of it. 🤣

[@Marco-vw3mv]

I went to drafting school back in the 90's and studied a little architecture but ended up going into the commercial and industrial electrical side of the construction industry. But I have always wanted to see the floor plan of this house, even as a kid.

Awesome job! Especially considering the Brady Bunch house had no toilets and even though there were bedrooms opposite each other in a hallway, somehow every bedroom looked out to the back yard.

The house was built on level ground. But the height of the floor surface changes when you go from one room to another. You will either go up a couple steps or down a couple steps. Lots of opportunities for tripping.

[@christophercasey7388]

So annoying!! Every shot was less than 1 second. I never got a sense of the spaces, or how they were connected. we also didn't see the bathroom between the kids' bedrooms; definitely a negative in selling the house.

Totally annoying! You couldn’t even focus on anything! 👎🏻

[@tw9535]

You could try changing the playback speed to 50% (or lower) and turning down the audio. I think this is the default editing style for home videos these days-- kind of for gnats.

[@TVHouseHistorian]

There is literally a virtual walkthrough you can use to tour the house to your heart’s content. They posted it a not long after the remodel was finished. It’s been up for 3 or 4 years where have you been???

[@barbarakilman271]

I have often wondered why they didn't keep her house or his original house

[@scotwelker9741]

On the "fourth wall" of the living room there is a door leading into a hallway that has a staircase going up. If you look at the exterior, the second floor is actually on the opposite side of the house from where it's represented on the show. I want to see that side too. They must have blown out the back of this house for the "tv" second floor.

[@GarretGrayCamera]

That's my question too. I'd like to know where the bedrooms are. Looking at the front door from the outside, it looks like the house extends to the left another 20 feet beyond the stone. Inside, the 4th wall extends from the edge of the stone toward the back. What's beyond that wall? And where's the attic? The attic would be like a third story not visible from the outside. Also looking at the window on the outside to the left of the door, is that a bedroom window? And if so, who's? I still don't get how the main staircase is squeezed in there.

[@montanaplease]

This is the entire reason why I look this video up to begin with. The floorplan doesn’t match the exterior. I’ll be 50 years old in December and I watched probably 90% of the episodes when I was a kid

[@KittySkeed]

Wow! I hope someone turns this into a museum that fans/visitors can pay to see. I hope someone doesn't buy it and keep it to themselves. I visited this house back in 2013. It was occupied by the previous owners. We peeked into the backyard bc we had rented the airbnb next door. Unfortunately, we did not see the Bradys. It was practically empty lol.

[@geniushisfriends1260]

Where was Alice's room?

[@montanaplease]

They kept her in the garage. Her and Sam were so loud when he was giving her his beef that they didn’t want the kids to hear

[@MurphCat-zl8vu]

What is that to the left of the oven at 1:56? Some sort of indoor grill?

[@josephd8407]

When you look at the house from the outside, the second story is on the left. On the inside the second story is on the right. 🤔

[@cjhoward409]

The hallway upstairs goes to the left. Unlike the show that showed the kids going to the right at the top of the stairs.

[@rgrndu]

To make the interior match the tv show they had to build an addition off the back. Only the exterior of the house was used for the tv show.

[@danawalker9417]

You forgot to show the laundry room with a box of Safe on the wash machine. "Mrs. Brady, the suds are calling you."

Thx for the tour ❤😊

[@landreaulover]

There is no doubt that the set design played a huge role in why people remember the show so fondly.

[@southernguy35]

I have an earlier version of the cookstove. That should be a Theradore built in electric range. The one I have appears to be an earlier model built in the 1950s. The thing I don't like about it is the controls are in the front and pots can get in the way. In the middle of that shove is a cover and under it is a griddle. That looks to have a stainless steel cover while I have a colored aluminum one.

Celery green walls, too. What happened?

[@daniels7907]

Where does the stairway of the dining room lead to? I don't remember it ever being shown on the show (because I assume that they put the camera in there).

[@Christopher-ye6cv]

It leads to the attic below and the master bedroom above.

[@jethal]

amazing that the interior matches the TV show.. so many houses were sets on studio stages and didnt match the real house at all.. most famously, the Seinfeld apartment had an exterior hallway that would have cut through their kitchen IRL

[@lorenavelvet]

The Brady house was a studio set. This house didn't match it they have renovated it.

By looking at the layout of the house from the outside, I don’t understand how the stairs to the second floor can be where they are inside.

[@Christopher-ye6cv]

They dug down to fit the new two-story section flush with the top of the one-story roof on the right side.

[@1001Hobbies]

I thought it was shot in a studio, I didn't know it was actually inside a house. I thought the outside was the only part of the residence they used on the show for establishing shots, and then all the story part took place in a studio. Wow, you would not know what the house looked like inside from seeing it from the street, if you've never seen the TV show.

[@ericlozen9631]

You're correct, the exterior images of this house were the only ones used for the show. The actual interior looked nothing like the one we're all use to seeing in the episodes; until now. This is the magical transformation.

[@protorhinocerator142]

The television is wrong. The Brady Bunch had a 1972 Philco Ford color TV. It was a regular TV, not a console. I know, because we had that TV and when they showed the kids singing on that talent show, our TV was on TV. It was weird.

The house was done by HGTv. property brothers. They did it with the kids. so it is right
