People Are Sharing The One Home From A TV Show Or Movie That Has Lived Rent-Free In Their Head For Years

1 year ago 7

Several weeks ago, as I watched murder after murder unfold in season 4 of the Netflix series You, I couldn't take my eyes off of one thing: Joe's perfect London flat.

It got me thinking about all the fictional homes I've loved before, so I asked the BuzzFeed Community to tell me about their home crushes from TV and movies, and it's truly the coziest thing. Here's what they had to say:

1. "Umm, every millennial girl would definitely choose Jenna Rink's apartment from 13 Going On 30. The scene of her getting ready for her party while 'I Wanna Dance With Somebody' plays lives rent-free in my dreams! I still dream about her walk-in closet filled with everything that you could need as a 13-year-old stuck in a 30-year-old body!"

—Mary, Bartow

2. "Steve Martin’s apartment in Only Murders in the Building. I’m obsessed with the patterns and the colors, and the secret passage."

3. "I will ALWAYS love the beachside apartment that Donna, Kelly, and Clare shared on Beverly Hills, 90210. I just thought it was the coolest! I still want that wooden bookshelf with the moon and stars carved into it!"

By the way, this is what the outside of the apartment looks like:

If I could just sip my coffee on that balcony one time, I'm pretty sure all my troubles would be over.

4. "I love Arnold's bedroom on Hey Arnold! I'm sure the rest of the apartment is nice too."

5. "The Invisible Man (2020). The house where the husband lived was straight up house porn."

—Emme, Canada

7. "I don't know if this counts, but I always wanted to live on the Starship Enterprise (from The Next Generation). All the rooms on it were so plush and luxurious, and I loved the warm colors and moody lighting. A little '80s, but not the tacky side of the '80s. And who wouldn't want a replicator?"

8. "Meg Ryan’s Kathleen Kelly apartment in You’ve Got Mail."

9. "Susan's or Lynette's house on Desperate Housewives. I loved Susan's kitchen and Lynette's was so homely."

10. "Grace and Frankie's beach house. The layout and colors are beautiful, and with the beach right outside the door... absolute heaven."

—Mary, Chicago

11. "I would love Frasier Crane's apartment. I loved the lines and the view."

Frasier's apartment was exactly what my kid-self hoped I would have as an adult, back before I understood rent or whatever. Anyway, here's the absolute genius who designed it walking us through the set:

13. "Hever Castle as portrayed in The Tudors — with its gorgeous garden and sundial outside and late-medieval interiors. Hey, a gal can dream."

14. "Lorelai and Rory's house in Gilmore Girls! Talk about nostalgia. Warm colors, cool decorations, wraparound porch. The opposite of millennial gray, and not teeming with tropical plants either like you see in a lot of curated spaces now."

15. "Otis and his mother Jean's house in Sex Education. I'm probably too cowardly to live on the slope side of a mountain, but I love the idea of sitting on the porch where I enjoy my cuppa and the landscape."

16. "The mid-century dream apartment given to Renee Zellweger's character in Down With Love. Is it possible for an apartment to live rent-free in my brain? Because this one does."

17. "The New Girl loft for sure. It’s so bright and open and just seems like a great place to live and hangout."

18. "Julia Louis-Dreyfus and David Duchovny's house in You People. Omg it was BEAUTIFUL!"

19. "Mia’s Genovian castle in Princess Diaries 2 made me soo envious, especially during the closet entrance scene and the mattress surfing scene. From secret passageways to elegant ballrooms?? Please, I was obsessed."

20. And finally, "Literally any of them. Any apartment on any show where adults are living alone. Because housing is so expensive right now that I, an almost 30-year-old human, can’t afford to move out of my parents house."
