Inside San Francisco's 'Full House' home made famous by the 1980s TV sitcom that's now for sale for $5.5 million
The facade of the home at 1709 Broderick Street in San Francisco's Lower Pacific Heights district is shown in the "Full House" opening credits — but only briefly.
But it has still become an indelible part of the "Full House" world, as well as a San Francisco Victorian with a claim to fame.
The home is a popular tourist attraction, with visitors snapping selfies in front of the home.

The tourism was at one point such a nuisance to the neighbors that the city's transportation agency voted to ban tourist buses from Broderick Street in 2018.

But the show was never even filmed inside the home — the show's creators used a soundstage.

The fictional Tanner family didn't even live in the home at 1709 Broderick Street — they were said to have lived in one of the Painted Ladies homes a mile south.

The Broderick Street home is listed as the "Full House" House on Google and is also a historical landmark in the city.
And it's a far cry from the 1980s aesthetic of the TV show, especially after Franklin, the creator of both "Full House" and the Netflix reboot "Fuller House," conducted a ground-up renovation on it.
The home was gutted, and living space was added on a lower level with a bedroom, bathroom, den, and wet bar.

This lower level also opens up to a backyard with an English garden, which is a rare feat in San Francisco.

The interior throughout is sleek and modern, with a mostly neutral palette and brass accents.
The kitchen boasts deep midnight blue cabinetry.
It opens up to a living space.
On an upper level, a row of windows lets in natural light.
A dining table is currently staged in this area at the top of the stairs.
Franklin actually never lived in the home. In May 2019, after being renovated, it hit the market for $6 million.

But after going four months without a buyer, the listing got a price cut down to $5.75 million.

The listing was removed in early January before popping up again in early February, this time listed for $5.5 million.

Rachel Swann, one of the home's listing agents, told Mansion Global in 2019 that the future owner could end up being a lover of "Full House."
"If someone is a fan of the TV show, it's an incredible opportunity not only to have something that's an iconic piece of television history, but also to have a home that's really beautiful and luxurious," Swann told Mansion Global.

And Swann said some of the "Full House" history is literally embedded into the property.
She told Mansion Global in 2019 that there are handprints of several of the cast members in stone at the back of the house.
