According to HGTV, on-screen talent involved in the project will include “Property Brothers” Drew and Jonathan Scott, Mina Starsiak, Karen Laine, Leanne and Steve Ford, Jasmine Roth, and Lara Spencer. The network paid $3.5 million for the house, outbidding a host of prospective buyers including NSYNC’s Lance Bass. The online listing for the home notes that "Reportedly it is the 2nd most photographed home in the USA after the White House." Mike Lookinland, who played Bobby, will be joining Karen and Mina to transform the current bedroom into the one his character shared with brothers Greg and Peter. Although the Property Brothers are renovation pros, Drew and Jonathan might feel a little pressure with their important tasks.

The process ended up being a trip down memory lane for not only them but millions of television viewers who grew up watching the classic show. Bringing a famous television home back to life was not an easy feat, however. 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. HGTV will sell the house with many of its contents, including the green floral living room couch and 3D-printed replica of the series' horse sculpture. HGTV said it bought the house for $3.5 million and spent almost $2 million during the renovations.
You Can Now Live In the Restored 'Brady Bunch' House—for $5.5 Million
After a full update and remodel completed by HGTV, including a major second-floor addition, the original Brady Bunch house can now be yours for a cool $5.5 million. The home was listed by the network on May 24, and it's been restored to the full glory of its television days—with a few new features and a lot more square footage. While $3.2 million seems like a pretty penny, it’s down from the original asking price of $5.5 million. The home was part of HGTV’s 2019 series "A Very Brady Renovation" as the Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott worked with the show’s cast to re-create the interior of the house.

The actor fully immersed himself in the process, helping with demo, construction, and furnishing, including updating a donated drafting table. Mike Lookinland (Bobby Brady) joined them for a bit to help build the home's two-sided fireplace. The Brady's kitchen was classic 1970s all the way with orange countertops and green cabinets. This groovy design was fun for HGTV's designers to replicate with its bright and cheerful colors.

At the time it was unclear what would happen to the home after the renovation series aired. But the actors had speculated it was unlikely to become a museum or public attraction because it's in a residential area. When the property hit the market in 2018, it was for the first time in 45 years — having not changed hands since 1973. The original asking price was $1.85 million and some speculated that it might be knocked down and redeveloped. — and HGTV’s bold move to dramatically renovate it into the ultimate Brady enthusiast’s abode ensured that would not be the case. Fans of the iconic sitcom “The Brady Bunch” can now own a serious part of the show’s history.

The North Hollywood, California, house used for exterior shots of "The Brady Bunch" home has sold for $3.2 million. WASHINGTON — One of the most iconic homes in TV sitcom history has a new owner. After purchasing the Brady Bunch home in August, HGTV is moving forward with plans to remodel the iconic Studio City ranch house seen in nearly every episode of the 1970s sitcom. The house was redesigned to look nearly identical to the home featured on the show. HGTV documented the process through a 2019 series called "A Very Brady Renovation."
All six original Brady kids also made appearances on the show—their first time reuniting in years—to lend a hand (and knowledgable eye) to the redesign. With exactly eight chairs at the dining room table (sorry, Alice!), the Brady's dining set on "The Brady Bunch" coordinated with the kitchen and was the focal point of many family discussions worked into the various episode plots. Lighter wood hues paired with brightly colored cushions was a popular look for 1970s families.

"Our responsibility is that we don’t screw this up," Drew joked to People. The property was also used for other HGTV specials and other series, such as Trixie Mattel’s “Trixie Motel” on Discovery+. Each TV sibling was in charge of renovating a specific room in the home, re-creating the look from the iconic set. In the fourth and final episode, titled, “A Sunshine Day on Clinton Way,” Williams worked with Roth and Flea Market Flip's Lara Spencer to recreate his legendary room.
Redfin shows similar-sized homes in the same zip code ranging from $2.2 million to $7.8 million, so if a completely updated, state-of-the-art look combined with '70s design are what you’re into, the price isn’t too bad. While the show's interior house scenes were shot on a soundstage, HGTV bought the property in 2018 and rebuilt it to replicate the set from the 1970s sitcom. The renovation was documented in a four-part series titled "A Very Brady Renovation."
This renovation appeared in the 2019 event series “A Very Brady Renovation,” hosted by Property Brothers Drew and Jonathan Scott, which also brought in the six Brady kids to make the effort become a reality. A ratings success, the show nabbed more than 28 million viewers during its four-week run. While he's happy to make a sale, he's ultimately hoping the home will go to someone who will appreciate its value as a piece of history and its importance for so many people. "We want someone who's gonna be a steward for the property for the next hundred years and really, really pay homage to the legacy and the spirit of the show," he says. "So that will probably be an investor or collector, some combination of the both." In the second episode, “Here’s the Story,” Hidden Potential host Jasmine Roth worked closely with Barry Williams (Greg Brady) to create Mike’s Den from three existing spaces—living room, hallway, and kitchen.
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. HGTV’s reproduction of the fictional Brady house has mangled the real-deal, late-’50s split-level home designed by Harry M. Londelius. HGTV has announced that the renovation of the iconic “Brady Bunch” house is now complete.
