“When you’re lost out there and you’re all alone, a light is waiting to carry you home,” as the Full House theme song goes — and that light just led a new owner to the iconic Full House home in San Francisco for $6 million.
The famous Victorian home at 1709 Broderick Street, part of the city’s picturesque “Postcard Row,” or “Painted Ladies,” was scooped up by an undisclosed buyer on Monday. The buyer and seller were both represented by Rachel E. Swann of Coldwell Banker Realty.
The sale marks the first time the home has changed hands since 2020, when it was purchased for $5.35 million by Full House creator Jeff Franklin, TMZ reported. The home was listed in June 2024 for $6.5 million, receiving a cut to just under $6 million before landing its final sale.
According to TMZ, the sitcom’s stars left behind a special treat for the new owner — their handprints and signatures in the home’s backyard.
Originally built in 1883 by architect Charles Lewis Henkel, the 3,737-square-foot home underwent a major renovation in 2019 by renowned architect Richard Landry, according to the property’s listing description. The result is a blend of historic charm and modern elegance, complete with white walls, high ceilings and bay windows.
The home features a primary suite with a fireplace and spa-style bathroom, a sleek wet bar, a private fitness room and even a manicured English garden. The home also includes four bedrooms and four baths spread over two spacious floors.
While the interiors of Full House were filmed in a Burbank studio, the exterior of this Pacific Heights home became forever tied to the fictional Tanner family. The sight of it instantly calls to mind the opening credits and nostalgia of the show’s theme song.
Full House, which aired from 1987 to 1995, followed widowed dad Daniel “Danny” Tanner, played by the late Bob Saget, and his household full of love, chaos and unforgettable catchphrases, especially “You got it dude,” delivered by Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen.
The Netflix reboot Fuller House ran from 2016 to 2020 and reunited much of the original cast, along with that familiar front stoop.
