Behind The Scenes[]
- This house has an actual first floor interior (Kitchen & Dining-room), all other inside shots (Family-rooms, Formal Dining, Bedrooms, Bathrooms) are filmed in a soundstage on the studio.
- Originally built for the 1946 movie So Goes My Love, it was known as the "Maxim House"
- It was used as 1313 Mockingbird Lane in The Munsters (1964-1966)
- The house strictly avoided by the Desperate Housewives crew during Season 1, because it was considered to be too recognizable as the house of The Munsters. The house was therefore completely remodeled for Season 2 following the decision to introduce the Applewhite's.
- Because of the Desperate Housewives remodel for Season 2, preservationists and film buffs alike have wished to the see the home restored to the façade it was known for from The Munsters.
