Property Porn: The house from ‘Father of the Bride’ is for sale

What's not to love?

Rebecca Keane

Who could forget the classic Father of the Bride?

In 1991, Steve Martin starred as George, an overprotective father to Annie, Kimberly Williams in a comedy that would stand the test of time.

While we all wish from time to time that we could’ve been cast in the 90s film, becoming one of the Banks is now within reach – as the house where some of the most important scenes were shot – is now for sale.


Yes, that tender basketball scene and Annie’s wedding were both filmed at 500 North Almansor Street in California, which is currently selling for €1.7 million ($1.98 million).

While the house has film history linked to it, it’s also not too shabby on the eyes either.

Built in 1925, this elegant Californian house has four bedrooms and four baths and the exterior of the house is just as exquisite as the inside. Anyone wanna lend me 2 million euro? Anyone?

But perhaps the most important detail of all is that the very same basketball hoop that George and Annie played basketball in is still there. 25 YEARS LATER.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to rob a bank.
