“Father of the Bride” House for Sale in California

“Father of the Bride” was a very funny movie. It was also set in a spectacular home in Alhambra, California. The house has a classic style and is large and airy. Its elegant style was a clever foil to the zany antics of the father, George Banks, played by Steve Martin. Would you like to own the “Father of the Bride” home?

This house is now for sale. It has been listed for sale online for close to 50 days, but no one has purchased the home yet, notes the Daily Mail. However, this home probably will not linger on the market long, as it would be a great home and an investment too. The house could be used again for a movie role someday. Thus a new owner could perhaps make a profit off the property at some future time.

It might be fun to live in a home that served as a set for a movie. After all, how many people can say that Steve Martin worked in their home? And the movie had a lot of fans, but probably not of the fanatical sort who would loiter outside the home as tourists trying to get a glimpse of the property.

The home was built in 1925. It has five bedrooms and three fireplaces. The current asking price for the home is $1,350,000. The town Alhambra is just about eight miles outside of Los Angeles. The “Father of the Bride” house is listed for sale online here.

The “Father of the Bride” house is far enough outside Los Angeles that the tourist buses viewing movie related locations probably don’t stop there. Any potential buyer of the property should probably look into that though. Some people wouldn’t mind having a tour bus parked outside briefly and for others it would seem an invasion of privacy.
