A Very Brady Renovation Brady Bunch House Tour
Before you make a comment, especially a snide one, of all times we could not get the video to flip horizontally into landscape mode to get wide shots. We had limited time to make a video and had to work with what was available to us. We felt very privileged to shoot what we did get, so please be kind and try to enjoy the video anyway. Thank you.

(No narration) We start in the red tiled entryway of the home, including the closet, just inside the double front doors.

50 cents a pack 🤣
Great tour but what's at 4:55, you skipped that area.
That's the real "service porch" of the new addition behind the kitchen and family room. It's mostly for storage and utilities. There is a washer dryer back there. It was not a recreation of anything. You're supposed to pretend it doesn't exist. Right before it is the new downstairs bathroom, also not a recreation of anything but added just for the sake of having a bathroom.
@@retrounderground1 ohh, ok, cool.
Marion Ross played a house-call making doctor on the Brady Bunch.
I bet if they knew how popular this “set” house would be they would have never dismantled it
Whoa mind blown!!!
"Dad always said, 'Don't burn holes in the furniture!"
LOL! "Don't burn holes in the couch!"
👋🏻🆒️🌹🏡😎😍🌞
The Brady Bunch would have been a better show if they all smoked.
The Brady house!
Robbie Rist AKA Cousin Oliver was in it too. He was much younger though.
I’ve seen that one couple on Love American Style back in the 1970s.
Hey! It’s cousin Oliver!
I believe cousin Oliver is still squatting on that set today
Cousin Oliver got the Cunninghams smoking from Greg Brady's leftover cigarettes.
So weird seeing Mr and Mrs C with different names, in the Brady's house, smoking, and with that wretched Cousin Oliver as one of their kids. Alternate universe overload!🤯
Thanks for the full tour. You showed a lot of what was missing from other tours like the master bedroom is separate from the kid's rooms and Greg's attic isn't an attic after all. They did get some other things wrong in the house. Alice's headboard, lamp bases, bedside tables, and artwork are all different.
Where's the REST of it? Why was this video cut short?
Amazing !
They did an amazing job recreating the inside of the house. Yes, the house was always there and they used it in the TV series but the OUTSIDE ONLY. The inside never looked like that and they used a set for TV (for those who actually think it always did and filmed on the inside.
Listen to your mother? More like Grandmother. Those must be Chuck's kids.
I remember watching this in high school health class around 40 years ago. The first thought I had when watching this back then was "What are the Cunningham's doing in the Brady's house?"
Thank you so much for posting this. I loved watching the renovation. This is on my bucket list. I wish I could take a tour of this house.
The Bradys left and Oliver and his siblings and parents moved in. Oliver's mother is Marion Cunningham's identical twin sister, and his father is Howard Cunningham's identical twin brother.
Love this! Great job by all, especially two of my favorite TV parents. I'm glad Tom was able to eventually quit. Sadly, the damage was done and he died due to lung cancer. Still, I'm sure he bought himself time.
Why is there a print of the Acropolis at the top of the stairs ? Lol
What the hell happened to this show? It used to be beautiful.
So, that’s where that door goes to at the top of the stairs. Mike Brady sure designs weird closets What was that room “behind” the kitchen with the shelves? If Greg’s attic room is in the lower level, then that room behind the kitchen would be the cellar where the storm windows are kept or where Myron the mouse went to hide from the exterminator?? Nice tour, I knew one could circle around the stairs to get back to the kitchen. Want to see a tour where ALL the doors and hatches are opened.
All the bedrooms threw me .... not where I expected them. 😞 Oh well...
Well, that was a problem for HGTV, trying to fit four bedrooms that were depicted on multiple floors in a house that did not have a second floor. So the parent's bedroom was relocated into the upper level of the split level side of the house, and Greg's bedroom that was depicted as being in a non existent attic, went below the master bedroom in the lower level of the split level section of the house. At least the McAllister house had the rooms needed, they just weren't where the old TV series pretended they were located.
Well whatta you know, there is a toilet in that house!
Acting performers should resist any role that has them smoking.
For all those who questioned why stay at home mom Carol needed a live in housekeeper, just imagine the daily grind of keeping a multi floor house this size clean and tidy with six growing children in it. Consider all the appliances, furnishings, knick-knacks and various surfaces collecting dust and smog grime that come in through windows, vents, doors, settling on clothes plus dirt carried in on shoes. You would thank your lucky stars you had help with those and other domestic chores. The work never ends because running a busy house is like being the sole proprietors of a small business.
Also don’t forget that Alice originally only had to take care of a house that contained just 3 boys and two parents. So the original “Mrs. Brady,” pre Carol, had it even cushier. For those who think the housekeeper idea was far-fetched for a middle class household, I think a more historical viewpoint might be in order. Domestic help for middle class households was dying out by the 1970’s, but it it was still very much a thing for professional middle class households to have a cook or a housekeeper on hand - particularly in mid-20th Century LA. It wasn’t anything fancy. It was just part of the culture back then. There wasn’t a lot in the way of retirement back then, and if you were older and single with no children to support you, becoming a domestic was a natural matter of course. In fact, prior to the 1970’s, there wasn’t a lot in the way of government assistance for older people at that time. So in decades and centuries prior to the 70’s and 80’s, becoming a domestic for a family meant you became integrated into that family, and you had a roof over your head, along with a small income. The history of domestic help in the United States is very interesting. Only in recent decades has this phenomenon died off.
Somebody from another country had the gall to assume Carol was just a lazy housewife and that Alice lived in the basement ! I question the observational skills taught in their school systems.
I raised six kids with close ages, I could’ve kept a housekeeper very busy!!!
Look up the name Vivian Maier. She was a live-in housekeeper by profession who was a talented but entirely unknown hobbyist street photographer, and once worked for Phil Donahue in his Winnetka, IL home. This lady was a sort of Alice-Fran Fine mash up with a much more serious demeanor.
@@China-Clay .... My former boss had four kids spanning eleven years---his wife didn't work and had a nanny to help out during the day. With a big house on a spacious lot, kids busy with school, sports and other activities along with meetings, appointments, volunteering, etc. there was always someone or something requiring attention. My old boss could very well afford to shell out the money for help and he did ---to be rewarded by a happy family life and a well functioning home.
Looks like it would be a very nice place to live.
Wow, I feel 5 years old again. Watching on a black and white t.v. sitting on the floor
There were a few things that HGTV did not replicate in the Brady house, most likely due to space constraints, or possibly going over budget, or maybe just couldn't find. The most obvious was the "service porch" off the kitchen, which was deemed low priority early on because there simply wasn't room to build it. So sorry, no avocado washer and dryer. The "mud sink" that you commonly saw outside of Alice's bedroom door, was put in place just for the visual as it is in a different location from where it was on the set. A folding step stool with black vinyl seat was completely omitted from where it was normally seen in the corner of the kitchen near the door to the service porch. The built in storage cabinets of the plaid daybeds in the family room. The long tubular bolsters sat in front of them and hid them. They just made the bolsters to set up against the wall. Having the daybeds sit out an extra foot or so from the wall probably through off the scale of what could be built, and they were very meticulous about getting everything to scale. The writing desk and chair in the master bedroom was completely omitted. It sat in front of the bed close to the cameras, again most likely left out due to space limitations. The dressing area behind the rice paper panels (with maple leaves) which on set was a long space between the bed and the master bathroom couldn't be added due to the studio set being much larger than the master bedroom of the house. It was pretty much left to its original dimensions but completely gutted and heavily remodeled. Behind the dressing area was the master bedroom. What they did instead was, instead of making the louvered door the actual door the bathroom, was actually the door that went into a small enclosed room where they did install an actual toilet. All just a clever optical illusion. A tall narrow window that you always saw on the side shot of the house was left in place. It was in the dressing room of the original house, now it is inside the closet of the master bedroom. That's right, the Bradys now have a closet with a view of the Dittmeyer's place next door. Outside in the back yard, the built in brick BBQ grill wasn't added. The carport wasn't added since there was an existing detached garage where it would sit. It is now hidden from the view we saw on the set. The arbor was relocated to sit right against its side to hide it.
Did you notice that the family room was not angled the way it was on the sets? Also, the girls room is shortened to make it fit. In the Den there is now a raised area at the back that was not in the set, along with an added window and closet.
@@Christopher-ye6cv Yes, the architect's den was built out from what was the ground level existing kitchen, and the rest of the house was sunken down. The real house had a raised kitchen, dining area, and foyer across the front elevation, then the rest of the house was sunken down from them. This raised area in the real house helped make the renovation possible, as the Brady set had a raised foyer, so there were similarites between the two. Did you notice there is no window behind the plaid curtains next to Mike's architect desk and the curtains stay closed? That would have been a great place to add a fake lighted window with background scene like in Greg's attic room.
I know none of the appliances in the kitchen work, does anyone know if the house has any functional plumbing? Do any of the toilets or showers work?
HGTV did install toilets, sinks, tubs and at least one shower head that they showed on the renovation episode. There is at least one more bathroom just off the kitchen but was not shown on the series since there wasn't one there before. Ive seen it and a glimpse of it appears in this video. Some of the Brady cast did say the plumbing was functional, but nothing was demonstrated as proof.
@@retrounderground1 Thanks for the information, and the video is great, thanks for sharing it!! It's fascinating to see what the house actually looks like in a walkaround. The weird triangular space behind the door at the top of the stairs is so wild! And the "closet" in the girls' room that's not really a functional closet and is only about a foot deep. But I did wonder about the toilets because the new owner wants to let people rent the place out for sleepovers for charity, but I don't know how that'll work since the kitchen isn't functional and they're going to have a problem if there's no working bathroom in the house. I hope the one you mentioned works!
You're welcome! From what I've seen and just mentally gathered, the house does have a lot of oddities like you mentioned. Odd shaped closets, cubby holes here and there that had to be covered up all because they created either excess or inadequate spaces due to this remodel being done primarily for the visual effect on the surface rather than the functional purpose of a regular house.
@@retrounderground1 I can believe that! It's essentially a big, nonfunctional set. I hope the new owner can use it as she wants but it's going to be a challenge to have people stay overnight there with no working kitchen, and I also wonder what she's going to do when things start getting broken or worn out over time. She's not going to be able to replace most of the items in that house.
@Sue18631 Bolt things down. Alice's bathroom looks to be an original bathroom in the house, so it would function, and another bathroom off the kitchen. I noticed the shower head in the jack & jill tub is on the opposite side from the faucets.
I never knew the parents room was on the other side of the house, that explains the window on the front of the house that is on the 2nd floor
Yes, the false window in the A frame section was attached to the exterior of the house in the beginning (just for appearance), but here's the story of a Brady bedroom....(LOL!). On the soundstage set, the master bedroom was shown as being up the staircase on the second floor across the hallway from the kids' bedrooms. In reality, the upstairs set was not upstairs because there was no upstairs, not on the set nor in the house. The second floor was set was somewhere on the ground floor of the soundstage, out of sight from the main set. When they built the second floor onto the real house, there was only enough space to build a long narrow extension onto the rear of the house. That's where the kids' bedrooms are now. Meanwhile, the big A frame on the front of the house was the location of the real master bathroom/bedroom all along, so they just remodeled it to look like Mr. and Mrs. Brady's TV bedroom. Thankfully, the Brady bedroom and the real bedroom were laid out very similar that it could be recreated. The window that you saw on the old series was fake since there was no bathroom window on the real house, but now the front wall has been cut out with a real window added!
They have the attic downstairs
Wheres the attack?
No dishwasher?
I remember watching this on HGTV when the Brady kids helped to reno the replica of the iconic Brady house.
kinda weird 😅
That house is absolutely insane!.. one of the coolest things I've ever seen!
Tom Bosley my hero!
One thing I noticed was the intro theme--"The Entertainer." That song was used around the same time as the main title theme for "The Sting" (an awesome movie). I wonder if that was intentional, considering the time frame.
In Pittsburgh they would play it in the early am
What an amazing, emotional step back into time 🥹💕 Great job🙏 Wow!
Make me feel sadness and amazing people sigh and wow
Thank you for this video!! So nice to have a look around without it just being clips and commentary and all the fluff they throw at you when you just want to see the full tour. This was perfect!! Thank you!!
I loved the Brady bunch as a kid and now watching the tour of the real deal made me extremely homesick and longing for my childhood days and I have never been there. Weird huh?
You could have turned your phone 90 degrees and had a great video. Instead you did this.
Well I guess Oliver got some work after the Brady's.
