Thank you for being a friend! After the home used for exterior shots on “The Golden Girls” landed on the market last week, the web went bananas. Obsessive fans of Dorothy, Blanche, Rose, and Sophia clicked like crazy and made the Los Angeles lair this week’s most popular home on realtor.com®. On the popular sitcom, the home’s address was in Miami. However, the home we saw onscreen is in the tony enclave of Brentwood. Built in 1955, the home hit the market for the first time ever, and nostalgic fans clamored for a peek. The home’s interiors weren’t used on the show, and are more modern and elegant than you might expect. A buyer might want to make some cosmetic changes, so we’ll stay tuned to see who winds up with the iconic residence. HGTV, perhaps? Aside from sitcom scenery, you also clicked on a couple of massive mansions in Connecticut, a historic home in Alabama, and a marvelous midcentury home in Minnesota built by a chief draftsman for Frank Lloyd Wright. We won’t ask you to name your favorite “Golden Girls” episode, but we will implore you to scroll on down, for a full look at this week’s most popular properties. 10.

Main St, Scotland Neck, NCPrice: $296,800 For the past two decades, the five-bedroom home has been in service as the Tartan House Bed and Breakfast, offering a charming historical escape for countless guests.

Saltair Ave, Los Angeles, CAPrice: $2,999,000 Now the home used for exterior shots on “The Golden Girls” has landed on the market, and we’re seeing the pattern repeat. We’re curious to see if a buyer will pony up and try to replicate the success that HGTV had with renovating the Brady home. One big difference from the “Brady Bunch” house? This one is move-in ready. However, if a buyer chooses to recreate the soundstage look of the fictional residence of the four iconic ladies, there’s plenty of work ahead. The four-bedroom home currently features elegant, understated interiors without a hint of a Florida grandma vibe, although Dorothy might feel right at home in the original turquoise, avocado, and yellow kitchen.
