From the New York Post: A house that once symbolized TV’s most wholesome blended family is now officially part of Los Angeles history.
The Los Angeles City Council voted Wednesday to grant Historic-Cultural Monument status to the iconic “Brady Bunch” house, cementing the famous TV home into the city’s history books after a vote held before a packed chamber at City Hall.
The modest mid-century split-level ranch house at 11222 West Dilling Street in Studio City — often described as the second-most photographed home in America after the White House — will now officially join Los Angeles’ list of protected historic landmarks.
Before approving the designation, councilmembers determined the move was categorically exempt from environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act, clearing the way for recognition under Class 8 and Class 31 exemptions.
Current owner Tina Trahan, who purchased the home in 2023 for $3.2 million, said Wednesday, “The house is a piece of art, and I did not want anything happening to it. I knew the only way I could control what happened to the house was if I bought it.”
The 5,000-square-foot, five-bedroom home was first built in 1959. However, only the exterior of the house actually appeared in the beloved Brady Bunch show, and all the interior scenes were filmed on a Hollywood soundstage.
But in 2018, HGTV bought the iconic house and carefully rebuilt the interior to match the set used for the television series. Now, when fans walk through the front door of the house, they see exactly what they saw on the show.
