- The Flintstone House is an eccentric house in Hillsborough, California. It was designed in 1976 by William Nicholson and most recently purchased by Florence Fang in 2017 for $2.8 million. Large dinosaur statues and other Flintstone-themed artwork cover the front and back yards. Town officials from Hillsborough sued Florence Fang, stating that her property doesn't comply with the community's code.

Inside The $2.8 Million Real Life Flintstone Home
I love this house. I drive by it all the time. It is not an eyesore. It’s stupid that she is getting sued.
wendlerkurt I also live near this house and find it to be whimsical and fun. Not an eyesore at all.

When the white guy own it , the city was ok with it. Now we have a Asian owner, the city wants it demolished.
Guvugv Fucubi I don’t care about the race of the owners, however the previous owner did not have all the yard sculptures. I guess that’s what the city is opposed to.
Live close by too

She won the lawsuit. She gets to keep it the way it is. And rightfully so!
The people who filed a lawsuit for the house just liked the Jetsons better
Jetsons
Meet the jetsons
They’re the retro sci-fi family
Any other native Bay Areans here who grew up driving past this house on 280?
I've been seeing that house and watching it progress over the last couple of decades. The city of Hillsdale and its residents are stupid to call it an eyesore. It's the only reason anyone knows who your bullshit dank ass town is and where it is on the map. I hope the city loses its case and it becomes incorporated by San Francisco. Then all the homeless people can move in and leave their "shit" sculptures all over your streets.
@@johnkelly1916 okay that was a bit harsh but I agree, I don't get why people hate it. It brings people joy. I remember when it was all white.
Baron Frolik yes Baron. Ik u do
dis girl
I've delivered mail there a handful of times - but only a handful since it's not my regular route. Driven past it on 280 many times.
This house is cute. I’m glad she won her lawsuit.
Imagine walking around the house at 2 drunk, high on weed and you come across the dinasour.
I can't imagine living somewhere that they tried to tell me what MY HOUSE could look like.
Sadly it happens all over. Subdivisions, HOA’s, etc. It’s about conformity
Welcome to California where if someone you don’t even know disagrees with you you’re apparently a public menace
I thought this was supposed to be the land of the free!? She has to pay property taxes but they still sue her for what her home looks like?
This is an incredible sight, I would love to drive by this house ❤️ Some ppl are just miserable they can’t mind their own business.
I’m slightly older now but I remember driving by this as a kid and remembering how amazing it was to see such a thing in real life and how much I would’ve loved to live there.
If I lived there, I'd NEVER leave! That is my Dream House plus I'm a Huge Fan of The Flintstones!
BEAUTIFUL HOUSE! Just drove by there yesterday! Creative & one of a kind! Amazing job👌🏽
The way she described sitting in the conversation pit sounds like magic
"We disapprove of your freedom."
"I'm sorry, I thought this was America."
This is so cool. Makes me want to watch flintstones again
Yeah but just visit Africa if you wish to see the real thing. No use in looking to cartoon depictions for an accurate and historic timeline.
Don’t care about what anyone says!!!!!!! I bet it’s a tourist attraction 😂
It pretty much is just not officially. It’s in a very expensive neighborhood who all likely are very upset about losing all their property value
Well that's the same way some ppl who live in "ghettos and hoods" don't ever talk down on people houses..... They make it home
I drove by to that place. Its never an eyesore at all. Its actually one the interesting spot whenever i drove by in I-280.
I am doubtful and I am thinking twice. I think if only the owner is white, i dont think there will be a lawsuit that will be filed. Rather, the neighbors would even glorify this house for its uniqueness.
I love this house so much. I drive with my parents all the time there and I love it. I mean how is it an eyesore!
I wish I can see it with my own eyes 😔
Drove past it last month on my way to San Francisco! I had never heard about it and when I saw I i thought it was awesome!
so happy that Florence won the lawsuit and wish she live ever happy in her magical house congratulations ~!
I drive by this place sometimes. Always wondered what it looked like inside. It is cool. I like it.
It's sad that she is getting sued for what she loves.
they have no legal grounds to suit that's why they just called an eyesore and yet they do mention any rules that she broke. In my opinion, it's just an intimidation tactic
@@Pedro-qm1of People like you should mind should mind their own Business, its their House they can do WTF they want, to be Honest with you every time I pass highway 280 and I see that Sculpture it just put a Smile on my Face. they don't need your Approval how they wanna design the House
@@rockman469 what are you smoking. I am saying that the city has no legal grounds to base their lawsuit and it will get dismissed as soon as a judges precides over the matter. Your opinion or anyone's opinion doesn't count in a legal court.
@@Pedro-qm1of - You were correct. Mrs Fang won and the city has to PAY here $125,000 for her legal troubles and will gurantee her that she can do any updates she wants (after applying for a permit) with no more legal actions against her.
Moral of the story: City should have just left her alone, they are kicking themselves in the a$$ as it COST them for their stupidity
I feel happy looking at the house.
Me too!! 😊💜
The house is probably the only good thing in Hillsborough
I wouldn't pay 75000 for it however glad she's fighting town planners / or zoning laws as I think you Americans say 💪💪
there are no zoning laws being broken nor town laws In my opinion its just an intimidation lawsuit
old millionaire chinese lady got the last laugh over silicon valley billionaires
I love love love this house!! It's beautiful!
I would love to have that house in my neighborhood, better than some run down crack house.
Beautifully said
just passed by this and wow i feel bad for florence having to deal w these town officials
Every time I pass it, I yell flinestone house
I live in the house right next to this
Looks like fun to be in that house.😍 I love the Flintstones btw.
Love this!!!!💜
Its like an artsy landmark my innerchild would love! It would remind me always, to stay open-minded (like a child)❣️
Are they made from Flintstones gummy vitamins
Yum!

I don't give 2 s*its about the town of Hillborough, but I will go visit just because of this house! SO COOL!!!
"built in windows", WOW, what a concept!
I always see this house on the freeway great video
so glad the loser bullies have to pay up! good for Fang!
Right on! 👍
The inside of the house is way nicer than I expected.
It's a free country!! Do wat you love and desire...👍👍
OMG I loved that house the first time I saw it 20 years ago from highway 280 bridge :-). It used to be light sand colored those days and reminded me of some sort of Star Wars landscape. I didnt love it after they painted it brick red, but this latest theme is fun and different. The neighbors sound like real shits. For years seeing that house on the way to work made me smile and feel the California spirit - individuality, whimsy, friendly, and fun. Stay strong Florence! One of the cars you see out your window is probably mine✌️
A friend of mine tried to drop by and see if Fred & Wilma still lived there...lol 😁 Jokingly, they were there along with Barney and Betty but as statues! He left satisfied 😊
Soo cool😍
I like the Flintstones I watch it all the time and when I was a kid I was watching it and I still watch it this day on the channel Me-TV
As an Automatic Gate Contractor I have done many Projects in Hillsboro and there is more to the Story...Hillsboro is a Very Wealthy Comunity to the likes of Bing Crosby! Hillsboro has no Commercial Business of any kind within its City Limits...its strictly Residential and the City Zoning Laws kept to a Very High Standard. Never-the-Less...I would be Honored to have this House next door to me if I lived in Hillsboro!
I LOVE THIS HOUSE. Every
time I am driving on the 280 freeway I look over at the house. One of these days I’d like to go visit it 💕
Anyone else sad they live in another country??? America is full of awesome houses, that woman is so lucky...
Omg I met that woman when I was visiting as a friend and i didnt even know XD
There is a old Flintstones amusment park in Arizona but it is run down and you can't go inside it now but it looks so cool.
Ahh The Flinstones.. Those were the days..
They sure were....
The good old days of flintstones❤
How did the mosque inspire him 😂😂
Wow, 3:13, The Big Orange Splot! I remember that book! My second grade teacher read it to us in 1989. I thought how crazy and rude all the neighbors were. Now as an adult living amongst HOAs that will put a lien on your house for driving the wrong car, regardless of how new it is, I realize that this book was no joke. Everyone must live in the same boring house and drive the same boring car. How dare someone wanting to be different?
Ma'am, please SUE those faux 'officials' back personally for violating the Constitution and the losses and harm that they have forced upon you and your PRIVATE property. Sue them for the damages they inflicted PERSONALLY, and perhaps their whole office needs a mass lawsuit against them PERSONALLY as well for allowing this and I can imagine many, many others.
She did, and she won. She received something to the tune of $125k and was affirmed the right to make the dwelling how she sees fit.
I agree with you. Regardless of whether you like how it looks or not, it’s _hers_ to do with, not _ours._ (Otherwise we may as well live in a communist country)
Now I personally DONT like everything about it, but I’m not gonna go whine and cry about what my neighbor decides to build or adorn on land that they bought, and pay taxes on. That’s just petty and selfish, and not the American way…. That’s why our country has all kinds of houses that reflect the owners personalities and lifestyles, instead of bleak concrete apartment blocks that are all the same and government-mandated.
All houses should be built like that. Is durable and can stand against twister and storms.
this is awesome. whoever think this is an eyesore must be some old angry miserable person who likes to take the fun out of everything lol
When I have money anything can be a piece of art..
@Tattle Boad I didn't said anything abt the artist I am talking abt the owner..
@Tattle Boad I agree with it..
@Tattle Boad actually it's been proven many times that when you say something is art people will believe it and buy it.... also the art market is corrupt.
@Tattle Boad yeah but people dont have to like it for it to be art. Also let's say you were a Holocaust survivor some people will buy your crappy drawing they will consider it art or let's say you died that drawing will hold value to your family (maybe) they will see it as art.
@Tattle Boad have you seen Adam's ruins everything? He has an episode where he talks about modern art and how basically the rich have corrupted the field.
I pass by this house almost once a month
I always drive by that freeway 280 and wonder what it is. I wanted to take my kids there thinking it was a play ground. Now I know it a home lol
Cool!
you can see it going north on 280
Yabba dabba doooo!!!!!!!!!!!
That Barney Rubble was a great actor.
Live this house, so much fun!!!
That’s GRAND.
Wow, this is so dumb to file a lawsuit against this. Like, I don’t want to solve actual problems, I want to kill anything that’s doesn’t resemble my tastes
Each dislike is from a person who sued the house
Now that is one GRAND old DAD...
How did I know this was going to be in CA
Because California is the best
Where are their cars with holes for your feet to run?
Just add a few half buried Cadillacs here, a sprinkle of flamingo lawn ornaments there... it will balance the look out an make it more inviting...
The house is a eyesore i think the officials is an eyesore to the community and a kick in the ass smh😂😂😂
I just read that Florence counter-sued the city for trying to make her take down her dinosaurs and won $125,000.
Lol. People who claimed this is eyesore are just jealous. They WISH they thought it first.
I remember driving past this thing a few times
I seriously wonder
"Was it worth it?"
Totally worth it
She won the lawsuit!! 😁
280 highway north San Francisco I pass by all the time love that house
Whenever Ms Fang unfortunately passes away I hope this House becomes an official landmark or something
The Flintstone's House is a wonderful place and brings joy to all who see it. The NIMBYs are just haters with lousy taste and generalized Bah-Humbug Disorder.
I like it 😛
I want that house.
Yeah I would likely spend 2.8 million on this house too if I had that kind of money!
YABA DABBA DOO !
Thanks....
She won the lawsuit ❤😊
Ross would love this
One amazing house that is what I call cool location art at finest I'm so glad she won lawsuit yab da do time
Her neighbors are trying to get it taken down
Craig Bantz why?
GOD
Cause she’s Asian
@@rick03168 Completely untrue, learn your facts.
@@god5620 They're calling it an eyesore for their inferior houses
Whaaaah! She isn’t part of the hive mind... good for her.
What an eyesore
Wow this house is awesome! who wouldn't want to live there? especially with how the world is today! You would wake up happy every day its like a fairy land 🧚♀️🧚♂️😊 💙🍄🤸♀️😛🤪🧚♂️🤶🎅🦖🦕🦜🌞🧸🍄💚🧡
I love the design; so much story, fun, characters, etc. love love love. The people sued the owner are stupid lack of sense but owning a shit load of money thinking they could decide what every they like!!! Just jerk
I thought you said Flint Lockwood
Hanna dabba doo! The current owner must have spent hours in her childhood at miniature golf courses.
Go Florence! Congratulations!
Haha! Hilarious
Now that a Chinese family bought the house, everyone is trying to take them to court over this house. Sad....
Looks like a golf place
They should file a lawsuit against whole Las Vegas then
