STUDIO CITY, Calif. - The famous"Brady Bunch" house in Studio City that served as an exterior in the popular TV show has been sold for $3.2 million, it was reported Monday.
The television network HGTV sold the home to Tina Trahan, a historic home enthusiast and the wife of former HBO chief executive Chris Albrecht, the Wall Street Journal reported. The price was about 9% less than HGTV paid for the home in 2018. HGTV listed the circa-1959 house in May for $5.5 million. After buying the home for $3.5 million, the network renovated it to match the interiors depicted on the show, documenting the process for the series"A Very Brady Renovation.""It's almost like a life-size dollhouse," Trahan told the Journal.HGTV spent about $2 million renovating the interior to resemble the show's set.
Trahan told the Journal she felt the house was overpriced because it doesn't have modern appliances or conveniences. HGTV had won a bidding war with former NSYNC star Lance Bass. The average home on the block typically trades for $1 million to $3 million. "Nobody is going to live in it," Trahan told the newspaper."Anything you might do to make the house livable would take away from what I consider artwork.""The Brady Bunch," ran from 1969 to 1974 on ABC. The Studio City home was also used in the 1995 big screen film"The Brady Bunch Movie" and its sequel.
