The Iconic ‘The Golden Girls’ House Hits the Market for $3M

“Architecture, location and a slice of Hollywood history!” is how the listing describes this mid-century home that was originally constructed in 1955. While the front facade was used in establishing shots for The Golden Girls, the interior of the TV home was actually filmed inside a soundstage (not at the house).

Arguably the most distinctive feature of the home is its rear face, which is entirely floor-to-ceiling glass. Just imagine how much glass cleaner The Golden Girls would have gone through had they actually lived in this place!
