Most of the filming actually took place in Los Angeles on the Warner Bros. lot. My Full House fanatics will all know it’s pretty safe to say the show was set in San Francisco, just based on nothing more than the opening credits. The answer, my fine friends is 8 — which is kind of surprising given how many pop icons we’ve gotten from the show in addition to the fact that it’s practically cemented into all of our minds and childhoods. If you’d like to visit 1709 Broderick Street and snap a picture of her no-longer red front door (from a respectful distance, of course),  there are several options. If you were an American kid in the late 80s and early 90s, you likely remember TGIF television, a block of Friday night shows run on the ABC television channel. Whenever I'm guiding a tour in San Francisco, I can usually look forward to certain specific questions, and one of the more popular queries is about the Full House location.

Is the Full House house for sale?

It is, in fact, in the neighborhood of Lower Pacific Heights, over a mile away from the park, which is significant considering San Francisco is famously only seven miles by seven miles. The San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency Board of Directors voted to ban tour buses near the iconic Full House in San Francisco. In sum, no, the "Full House" home was not officially listed for $37 million on Zillow. An update was made to the Zillow listing by a person or people without proper authorization to do so. Our teams use a number of different tools to prevent inappropriate content from publishing in the first place, but if a listing is found to be fraudulent after it's posted, our team takes steps to remove it. In this case, we discovered a "For Sale By Owner" listing was illegitimate after it was posted, and have since taken it down.

There's also a "sexy master suite" upstairs, according to the listing.

In the episodes "The Seven-Month Itch (Part 2)" (season 1) and "Fuller House" (season 4), after Jesse moves out, Stephanie moves back in temporarily. There is something about family sitcoms from the '80s and '90s that makes us nostalgic, and "Full House" is certainly no exception. It follows the heartwarming moments, trials, and tribulations of the Tanner family after the patriarch, a young widower, invites his best friend and brother-in-law to move into his San Francisco home to help raise his three young daughters. The family room is now at the back of the house, where the old kitchen once stood. The brand new kitchen now stands where the family room once stood in the middle of the house. A new door has been put into the wall left of the fireplace, leading to the kitchen, which has now been moved to where the family room once was.

Like a classic Chanel outfit, the Full House House remains timeless, even as public perception shifts and evolves. In the season five episode, "Oh Where, Oh Where Has My Little Girl Gone?", it becomes Stephanie and Michelle's room. It is exactly across from Jesse's/Joey's room and is right next to the bathroom.

But the show was never even filmed inside the home — the show's creators used a soundstage.

According to Landis Construction, row houses are usually no wider than 12 to 25 feet, making 1709 Broderick Street much too long and narrow to house the spaciously wide living room seen in the show. In a Full House home tour for Entertainment Tonight, Saget joked that the house would have to be about 12,000-square-feet to fit the family. The real Full House house is just over 3,700-square-feet with three stories, four bedrooms, and four bathrooms, according to Zillow.

According to Entertainment Weekly, recreating the set meant going frame by frame for over 100 hours of Full House. “Showrunners wanted the set to look like the San Francisco home viewers remember, with some slightly modern touches,” states EW. The home we all gush over in SanFran is actually not where it was filmed – that was just the exterior shot.

The Ultimate Guide To Joshua Tree National Park

Full House was a feel-good sitcom created by Jeff Franklin, along with Thomas L. Miller and Robert L. Boyett. The show, which lasted eight seasons, was centered around Danny Tanner (played by Bob Saget), a widowed father juggling single parenthood. With three daughters in need of direction and guidance, he enlists the help of his childhood best friend Joey (played by Dave Coulier), his brother-in-law Jesse (played by John Stamos), and some other characters in between.

After the property was purchase by Jeff, numerous walls have been knocked down or moved. As you can see the narrow hallway has now gone, with the front door leading onto a spacious, open, living room. The front doors, which were green/gray at the time, lead on to a narrow hallway and a staircase.

The San Francisco home, seemingly nestled among the iconic Painted Ladies, was ever at the heart of the popular sitcom. Unbeknownst to most, it’s actually located at 1709 Broadrick Street, proving that reality can, indeed, be stranger than fiction. The house that was their home wasn’t just a filming location but a beam of California sunshine that gave charm to the TV series.

By April 2019, the 1709 Broderick Street house was wrapping up major renovation work — done by award-winning high-end residential architecture firm Landry Design Group — and was listed for sale. But after Franklin was fired from Fuller House in 2018 following complaints about verbally abusive and vulgar language in the writers’ room and on the set of the series, he decided to sell the property. In fact, the entire original series was filmed live before a studio audience at the Lorimar Studios in Los Angeles, with no actual footage being taken inside the house. The Broderick St. house was used to film the opening credits and establishing shots for both Full House and its Netflix sequel Fuller House, but no interior scenes were filmed here. Originally built in 1883, the house used on the show is a perfect example of a San Francisco family home — though it’s admittedly on the pricier side.

Many folks believe the characters of Full House lived in one of the Painted Ladies, but they were merely the backdrop for the credits. One of the most memorable images from the show comes from the opening credits. Because parking enforcement or police patrols can often be found standing by, it’s best to get in and out with as little fuss as possible. They have convinced the city to ban tourist buses altogether in an attempt to cut down on traffic. Neighbors do tend to get upset with those who don’t remember that private individuals live in the surrounding homes. This show, with its simple one-liners and audience laugh track, struck a chord with American kids, allowing the makers to churn out hundreds of episodes before it was canceled in the mid-90s.

Israel has defended its actions, saying it has been targeting militants. Celebrities included Academy Award winner Da'Vine Joy Randolph, Scarlett Johansson, Jon Hamm and Chris Pines. Under Johnson's unconventional plan, the Ukraine bill will be sent to the Senate as part of a package that includes aid for Israel and Taiwan and a third bill that forces a sale of TikTok and allows the United States to confiscate Russian assets. With the property market being a wild ride these days, the Full House house was last sold for an estimated $5 million!

However, by email, a Zillow spokesperson told us the page for the house had been "fraudulently" updated and that it was an "illegitimate" posting. The home was not for sale, nor did it previously sell for anywhere near that high of a price. But the neighbors weren't too fond of that idea, and so Franklin instead renovated the home into a modern masterpiece that homebuyers would find appealing.

The opening credits of Full House showed the family enjoying a lot of the attractions around town, including the Golden Gate Bridge, Alamo Square Park, and the Painted Ladies. He planned to remodel the interiors to make it even more like its on-screen counterpart and was issued a building permit in 2017. Neighbors appealed it, concerned that further attempts to make it more like the show home will drive even more tourists and fans to the otherwise quiet residential area.

Now, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom house is for sale for $5.5 million. And in 2016, "Full House" creator and former executive producer Jeff Franklin paid $4 million for the home and intended to turn it into a replica of the TV show set and even allow fans to visit and walk through the place. The color of the door has also changed, but anyone on a sitcom pilgrimage can still be transported back to a time when “Everywhere You Look” was the catchiest song on the tube. The home is still a private residence so respect to the current owners is appreciated. In addition to providing the Full House address, I'll also include details about some of the other houses shown on the sitcom and why these locations are so culturally and historically relevant. No, the house on Broderick Street is not one of the Painted Ladies – they are located on Steiner Street close to Alamo Square park.

Carla Hashagen, a resident of Broderick Street, told Curbed San Francisco that there are more than a thousand visitors on busy days. People flock there in whatever mode of transportation works for them, from a single person on a motorcycle to a busload of fans of all ages. According to an article for MeTV, Bob Saget called the Full House home architecturally impossible. “While the real home may seem like it could possibly fit the Tanner family from an outside perspective, Saget said the house would have to have a rather unique shape if it were to actually represent what fans saw on the show,” MeTV states.
