Full House Home Drama: A San Francisco Real Estate Rollercoaster

Move over, influencers – San Francisco’s most famous sitcom house is back on the market, and it’s spilling more tea than the Tanner family ever did.
The iconic “Full House” home at 1709 Broderick Street has once again changed hands, proving that in the Bay Area, even TV real estate is a wild ride. Jeff Franklin, the show’s creator, originally snagged the property for $4 million and dumped another $2 million into renovations, hoping to transform it into a fan attraction that would make tourists swoon. Spoiler alert: the neighborhood was not having it.
From TV Fantasy to Real Estate Reality
Franklin’s grand plan to create a Full House shrine was quickly shut down by locals who were less than thrilled about becoming a permanent Instagram backdrop. After selling the property in 2020 for $5.3 million, the house has now been flipped again, landing at a cool $6 million.
Hollywood Meets Home Sweet Home
The property isn’t just another Victorian – it comes with some seriously quirky memorabilia. Left behind are plaster casts featuring handprints and signatures from the show’s cast, creating a bizarre backyard museum that screams “Silicon Valley meets 90s nostalgia”. The 3,700 square foot home boasts four bedrooms, three and a half baths, and amenities that would make even Danny Tanner’s cleaning obsession proud: a wet bar, gas range, marble island, and wine fridge.
The Tourist Trap Dilemma
Owning this piece of television history comes with a price beyond dollars – an endless parade of tourists wanting to relive their childhood memories, one selfie at a time. It’s like living in a perpetual sitcom, minus the laugh track and with significantly higher property taxes.
