John Whipple - By Any Design ltd. My wife and I picked up "Daddy Daycare" for the planning phase of our home renovation. I love that house and so does my wife!

newmouse I love both the London town house and Napa home in The Parent Trap.

ASVInteriors I have to confess to watching a lot of movies for their interiors.

I saw a film the other day, the Ghostwriter with Ian McGregor and I realized I was more fascinated with the house than the movie.

Also Cameron Diaz's home in The Holiday is another great house that I really love
Most Nancy Meyers movies seem to feature very cool architecture.

summilux Tomas' apartment in "The Unbearable Lightness of Being" was and is one of my blueprints for interior spaces. The interiors in "Hugo" are a more recent inspiration- especially the bookstore and Hugo's attic space. Both films are visual gems.

Elena Vega Moonrise Kingdom for that groovalicious '70s wonder home!

midmodfan Ferris Bueller's Day Off is the only movie I ever watched because of the house.

Charmean Neithart Interiors, LLC. Karen Blixen's plantation house in "Out of Africa", my favorite!

Dawn Taillon Back in the day when Father of the Bride was out, I could not get that yard and home out of my mind. I thought it was attainable over time, even on a limited budget, to get a similar feel.

Also I love Craftsman homes and it seems that is all you see in movies these days, they are the best for gathering that, "I want that home" feel. So I imagine there are many more homes that we all love than listed.

Under the Tuscan Sun, spot on.,. I also loved the home in The Other Sister, but it is not so attainable unless you have lots of cash. Which was also one of my favorite feel good movies and laugh out loud movies of all time too.

Karolina Panfil When a Stranger Calls house is pretty amazing.
http://www.verticallaunch.com/awesome-house-design-on-when-a-stranger-calls-movie/franklin-canyon-park-beverly-hills-set/
Also, Mad Men 60s inspired interiors!

Living Space Landscapes FARGO
I loved the booth style kitchen eating area with built in benches. Even a pregnant police officer looked comfortable eating breakfast there.

feeny I'm convinced that "Something's Gotta Give" began the trend in white Shaker kitchens. It is certainly the case that people frequently refer to that film as a kind of short hand when describing what kitchen style they want.

stierney I have always been amazed by the modern house in the movie, Strangers when we Meet (1960). Kirk Douglas plays an architect who designs a house for Ernie Kovacs and Kim Hunter is Douglas' forbidden love interest.

steinertbarbara It would have been nice to actually see the houses!

Patricia Coelho Somenthing's gotta give!

simps214 Obsessing about movie houses is one of a few-or a lot according to DH-of habits that make me say "I thought I was the only one!"

All those homes are gorgeous but I've always been particularly drawn to the kitchen in Practical Magic with its ivory cabinets, butcherblock counters, Aga range and large farmhouse table at its center.

There's just something about a historic kitchen even if its really part of a new set.

simps214 Oh and Ms. Harris all your ideabooks are great but after this one I think I'm offically fan-girling you :P

daniinla I don't think any list would be complete without the beautiful craftsman house in "Hope Floats" and the amazing mid-century homes in "LA Confidential".

Jo Allan Loved the old Italian villa and Diane Lane in The Tuscan sun! I've wanted to rent a villa in Italy ever since. Also the Meryl Streep movie It's Complicated, had a REALLY nice house and property.

Jo Allan What about the apartment in Breakfast At Tiffany's?

sharonzlong As good as it gets I love marvin's apartment he has a painting that I would love to know the name of the artist

Kenna Routt I fell in love with the kitchen in the house on "The Lucky One."
Also love the house in "Forces of Nature."

Karen Heffernan I modeled my kitchen on the one in "Something's Gotta Give," and if I could have thrown everything out and started fresh, I would have modeled my whole interior on it. I did manage to get pieces of it throughout my house: the paint palette in many of our rooms, and I even managed to incorporate the white and black pebbles as a bathroom mirror surround, and shower floor.

Karen Heffernan Everyone laughs, when I say it, but I love the family house in "The Incredibles!"

Rick Spence C'mon the Brady Bunch home is so ripe for an update!

kirgan I loved the Practical magic house with its great kitchen and the magnificent glass solarium. Have always wanted an herb room to mix my potions in! LOL

Becky Harris I can't believe I left Wes Anderson out, though I don't know which visual feast I prefer - Tennenbaums or Moonrise Kingdom. They are both so brilliant.

dianawoodward The gorgeous French Chateau from 'A Good Year'

wyndyacre The Mercer Williams House from the movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil!
I was visiting Savannah GA on a motorcyle trip when the movie was being filmed. I had never heard of the book at that point and couldn't figure out why there was a whole neighbourhood decorated for Christmas in May...lol. I especially travelled there for the architcture and gardens which are simply stunning and walked the whole historic district taking photos of homes and gardens for days. I purchased a Bird Girl statue for my own garden where she is a lovely reminder of my time in Savannah.

lowprofile The house in the end of the movie the island. From ewan mcgregor

trasgorshek There's so many, I know I've said this before in an old post but absolutely love the home in Disney's The Kid (one of my all time favorites), along with the high rise apartment in What Women Want. I love so many that have already been mentioned but to add to Something's Gotta Give, her home is stunning but absolutely love his as well! Always wished they would have put more of it in the movie! And an oldie, the seaside home in The Uninvited.

Dana Veach Under the Tuscan Sun...hands down, no contest!

Britt Heimann What about the amazing home in the movie"It's Complicated" which Merrill Streep lives in alone after divorcing Alec Baldwin. Fabulous kitchen and immaculate yard!

Laurel Ennis Too bad you didn't show the houses. My favourite movie houses are Please Don't Eat the Daisies, Sex & the City penthouse Carrie & Big briefly owned, and the Ghost & Mrs. Muir.

FredAndEthelsMom I would die if I could have James Mason's character's house in South Dakota in the movie "North by Northwest". Stunning midcentury.

victrala The best place to look at the movie houses (and others) is over at Hooked on Houses.

Anna Hawkins The Lake House (Keanu & Sandra movie) is my favourite. Its Complicated (Meryl S & Alec B) rates high too.

sagmoorecottage Mr Blandings Builds His Dream House | 1948 - Cary Grant & Myrna Loy - My husband and I LOVE that house and the movie is very charming too.

robstephwill Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

aussiemeg81 Best apartment "The Break-Up"

jamma33 What? No Home Alone?!

manosymama I'm with Britt and Anne who finally mentioned Meryl Streep's beautiful California spread in It's Complicated! The kitchen was divine, as was her vegetable garden. I barely watch tv or movies, but I watched that twice just for the house and soundtrack.

ladytenor The apartment in Victor Victoria. Art Deco to the nth degree. I also wish we could have seen pictures of the Houzz choices.

dfachler My favorite house is Meryl Streep´s House in It's complicated

Monica M I love the house in "What lies beneath" it looks so cozy but with the right lighting can look soooo creepy!

kirstjen My favorite movie homes are featured in The Ghostwriter and The House Sitter.

Align Design LLC I'm disappointed that the house from "It's Complicated" didn't make the list!

Robeson Design My Favorite is Somethings Gotta Give but I also ADORE the house in "The Holiday" If you haven't seen it, you gotta rent the movie!

zruby How could you not include Meryl Streep's home in "It's Complicated." It's house porn for women!

peggo It's Complicated-I love that house-especially the kitchen. & Something Gotta Give, My 2 favorite movie houses!! Oh and what about the BAKERY on its complicated! DREAM BUSINESS!

manosymama I forgot to add earlier that I also loved the Cullen house from the Twilight movies. (It is probably the only "Oscar"-worthy thing from the series! ) The house was a modern jewel, set in the woods, with lots of glass and open space. It had a very Zen feel to it.

Laura Lind In "About a Boy" Hugh Grant had the most deluxe London converted loft I've ever seen in film. It came with a wall of artfully placed artfully designed kitchen appliances, and even an aquarium with baby sharks, or some such thing. Apparently Grant owns a bunch of lofts in London. Pity the loft didn't come with Hugh Grant.
Also...
I met a designer once who told me he as a child he was completely captivated by the layout and flow of Ellen Burstyn's Washington D.C. house in The Exorcist! Which goes to show what a good eye he had at a young age - to notice the decor amidst all the spewing bile and backwards-head-spinning and what not.

peggo I judge movies on the houses! It's bad!! oh lets not forget Legends of the Fall! I LOVE that house! & the movie & Brad!

scunniffe Hands down, Cameron Diaz's house in The Holiday. Total California chic perfection.

seaventures How could you leave off "The Lake House" from this list?

peggo LOCATION OSCAR goes to "An Unfinished Life" with Robbie Redford! I would Love to live there!

jaxsue I loved the house in the movie "The Proposal."

peggo or...The Horse Whisperer...

peggo Best CLOSET: .....CARRIE'S........the closet BIG built....

Nancy Anderson Great article :) Perhaps in the honorable mention category - the renovation of the house from The Notebook and Home Alone

peggo yea, the NOTEBOOK renovation!!

marthaelena You forgot the house in "Life as we know it"

mmbuzz I owned and lived in the craftsman during the filming of "Monster In Law" and the experience was awesome! The interior shots were done in an authentic mock up built in the studio but the outside shots were filmed at our house. All sets were architecturally accurate. We no longer live there but that L.A. experience was an amazing look inside the making of a movie. By the way, the "Father of The Bride" house is 4 blocks away.

leslieming Merle Streep's house in "It's Complicated"!

peggo mmbuzz: did they mess your house up?

K K I absolutely LOVE this ideabook! When I watch movies I often pay more attention to the houses and decor than the actual plot! Some of my all-time favorite movie interiors are from The Exorcist, The Omen (the original), The Shining, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Stepford Wives (the original), Burnt Offerings, Rosemary's Baby, and Casino Royale (with Daniel Craig). After reading this post, I now have some more movies to watch with awesome interiors. Thanks!! :)

K K Oh, and Uncle Buck.

1946october I enjoyed the different NYC apartment decors of both Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in You've Got Mail.

Becky Harris The Holiday and It's Complicated and the more recent Parent Trap are mentioned, but I gave the ultimate award to Nancy Meyers for Something's Gotta Give (it's in the caption). As I understand it, she was also a writer for Father of the Bride (she directed the others mentioned) and I wonder if she had anything to do with the house in that movie. She has such a great eye for creating homes we want.

I think that house in Life As We Know It is about a mile from mine - they filmed that movie all over my neighborhood.

Angela Melrose My 4 favorites: the Glass House, Sleeping with the Enemy, Twilight (the Cullen's), the Notebook ( the house he builds for Allie) &.

mmbuzz peggo: No, they did not. In fact, we were paid handsomely. We also had access to the set and best of all the food services! Everyone in the neighborhood was included because it does cause some inconvenience so it was like a three day block party! We even had paparazzi. J Lo was there with her new husband. I must say it was great fun!

candyjayne3917 A picture of the houses referred to would have made this post complete.

alanpacek Best Lakehouse is Mel Gibson's Man Without A Face!!!!! Awesome Library with a view!

maeeast The Pelican Brief cabin -- It's rarely on lists like this, but I love that little cabin belonging to Denzel Washington's character. Although I'm strictly an urban girl, that cabin is an oasis in more ways than one. It's a respite in a 'chase movie', and it offers a realistic home-away-from-home dream for many of us. The cabin is only on screen briefly, so I usually rewind several times and sometimes stop the movie entirely to study it.

peggo what movie has the best: pantry, bathroom, pool, ect...???

ljohnsonatty This is 40-Leslie Mann's & Paul Rudd's house. I'm ready to move in.

rrvernon Awwww, I wish you had shown pictures of the houses and not the front of the DVD covers....

ehpehp Love the house in "What Lies Beneath"

Kirstin Davidson My all time favourite apartment is Meg Ryan's in "You've Got Mail". I enjoyed this article but would have liked to have seen it include images from each of the movies.

embracegrace For those interested in the interiors of many (if not all) of the houses in the list, check out the Hooked on Houses blog. She has a TON of movie house tours. http://hookedonhouses.net/houses-onscreen/

Deborah Hall Nice kitchen in "Rabbit Hole".

summilux The cantilevered home in "The Limey" was as opulent as it was ominous. It was as much a character as the actors in the film.

Karen Heffernan the lake house in "The Lake House" with Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves"

Barbara Lee Just give me Downton Abbey!

sgatensby Mr Blandings Builds his Dream House with Cary Grant is a classic

Rachel Grace The only good thing about 'You, Me and Dupree' was the Craftsman house.

Longview Builders, llc The red brick Georgian in Home Alone

Painted Lady Studios I LOVE, love, luv the house in the classic Christmas movie "Holiday Inn"!
I'll throw in the house in "Christmas in Connecticut"- very similar.
I also ADORE Jonathan's Connecticut country house in "Pillow Talk" (hmmm I see a pattern here.)

If you want to see these movie houses in detail, go to this site......hookedonhouses.net
It's amazing, she even has floor plans from a few movie sets...lots of photos and backstories etc.

acwink I agree with all the comments and the article, and I wanted to add "Stepmom" and "Psycho" to the list. Great houses!

sharonzlong Mr and Mrs. Smith

partis Yes! Yes! Yes! The Italian villa in "Under the Tuscan Sun" makes me want to own my own villa and vineyard.

Dawn Taillon Step Mom, yes in deed, it was a nice house and the movie made it even a warmer feeling house.

snowjewel The house in The Proposal was amazing. I also liked the home in The Family Stone.

cdeh62 Tops! the Mediterrean ranch in "It's Complicated" and later featured in Traditional Home. Have copied all the photos to my house file and am using it as the jumping off point to designing & building our home!

ptmatthews The beautiful San Francisco home in Guess Who's Coming to Dinner with Katherine Hepburn and Spencer Tracey. Timeless!

whalerwoman there is a movie made in the 50s, starring Gene Tierney called "Leave her to heaven". She's a psychopath, but the modern stone house and Maine lake setting is remarkable. Great movie for a vintage soap fix on a rainy Sunday afternoon.

dream4today Love the "Home Alone" house and "What about Bob". Guess I'm a traditionalist, they just feel so homey.

sjmom My son, whose tastes lean toward modern told me he and his wife would like the home in Father of the Bride. My favorite as well.

midmodfan I just learned that the Vandamm House in Hitchcock's North by Northwest did not exist - it's 'movie magic'! Wow.

schmorgasboard I can't believe no one has mentioned Tom Hanks' urban loft in Big. Come on, that's a dream space!

catniptardis I don't think I could ever actually live in it, but the house from Housesitter was the first to pop out at me and yell, "Look at me!"

Monica M I also like Patrick Dempsey's penthouse in "Made of Honor" as we'll as the Castle in Scotland from this same movie.

adawnw1999 My favorite house, one that I wanted from the time I was 8 years old, is the ranch house from the original Parent Trap - Hayley Mills. I still want a house like that, and with that view as well!

bathbob Kinda lame without pics of the houses.

sstarkes Love the kitchen in Diane Keaton's Baby Boom....the whole farmhouse was amazing ...the film was made about 7 miles from my village in Vermont...it was fun seeing all the places we see everyday in the movie!

japarkinson Although it is a long time ago, I nominate the large southern house in the great movie-The Big Chill. Its actually a home in Beaufort South Carolina.

littlemissgiggles There are so many my list is endless. I love the big old house and the garden in Practical Magic. I love that sweet little house in the movie Up and Ron's house in the Harry Potter movies stange but true sorry I cant help it.

beadqueen The Italian castle from Enchanted April - I had tears in my eyes when Josie Lawrence threw open the shutters. Also the house from How to make An American Quilt seems to have been overlooked here.

beadqueen Also forgot Meryl Streeps apartment in The Hours. Lovely palette and lighting. Just so New York and cosy!

cheewood Agree with most of these. The awesome house (and barn!) from The Proposal makes me drool everytime!

deepistol Merly Streep, It's Complicated - great house, fabulous kitchen.

deidrem1 I grew up watching old movies for the set design. Folks have mentioned a lot of contemporary favorites but one of my old school favorites is Ingrid Bergman's apartment in 'Indiscreet" (Cary Grant is also very beautiful in that movie). And I just watched the original "Father of the Bride", in which Spencer Tracy is excellent, for the architectual details. And how can any design buff not love "Mr. Blandings Builds his Dream House"?

holidaywithmary Meg Ryan's townhouse in You've Got Mail.

Andrea Echols I love the cottage in Sense and Sensibility!

michmc Bewitched - the house she "creates"

Ann Zerby What about Sally Field's house in Mrs. Doubtfire?

ninaof2 Hands down, Diane Keaton's homes are my favorites. The beach house and the LA house are wonderful homes. I'd take either one!

ninaof2 Also, loved the contemporary beach house on Figure Eight Island used in Sleeping with the Enemy.

Keegan Designs Dennis Quaid's Napa Home in the remake of, The Parent Trap, and the Island home of Pierce Brosnan's character in the remake of, The Thomas Crown Affair, are both fav's.

csgraphic The incredible paint peeling walls in the speech therapy room from The King's Speech. Another favorite is the artist studio with all of the wonderful windows from Benny and Joon.

kyfromky Its gotta be Meryl Streep's gorgeous house in It's Complicated!

le box Hey, how about the "spaceship" house in 1984 film "Body Double"?! Love that one!

le box And another Lautner designed house in the James Bond film, Diamonds are Forever. The Arthur Elrod House in Palm Springs.

arielago Oh dear. How could you forget that marvelous house in It's Complicated?

hmb8 Something's gotta give.......bestest!

fredmick My love of movie houses started here in Scotland in the 50's when I was six or seven with Calamity Jane. Longed to have a gingham filled cabin. Still love the look in my sixties.

clavrot I always loved the house off Home Alone. All 90s decoration and Christmassy in every last square inch. Love it

ploefff Hmm I was trying to find interior pictures from my favourite films and realized much to my surprise that they more or less all are in the same style: creepy vitorian/steam punk:
"Addams family", aunt Josephines house in "Lemony Snicket's a series of unfortunate events", "The city of lost children" and "the hotel Splendide." I couldn't find good pictures from the Hotel Splendide but here's a link to the trailer: Oh and anthing Tim Burton
I find it wierd because my personal style is very plastic pop - maybe I have a dark side I didn't know about?

craigjlafollette The House in "Home Alone".

Bethany Crenshaw - Lowe's Bashford Manor My husband is so tired of me commenting on the living spaces of a movie when we are watching it. Have you ever seen the movie "Lucky Number Slevin"? I spent the entire movie trying to get over how bad the wallpaper is in almost every scene. It was ghastly!

kimdem Meryl Streep's house in It's Complicated.

Suzi Yenchesky Catch and Release with Jennifer Garner and Old School with Will Farrell- I love both of those houses!!

Becky Harris I wished we'd had pics of the houses too - unfortunately, getting permissions to use those images is no easy feat. We only share photos we have official permission to use on Houzz.

I'd love to know what percentage are just sets. I recall they built the house for "The Housesitter" (which I mentioned in my ideabook about houses that star in movies as a character - see link above) in Concord, MA. It was just a temporary set they built and took down when production was done. It's always stuck out in my mind because they shot most of the movie in Cohasset, MA, which was the next town over from HIngham, MA, where I was living at the time. Big excitement having a movie shot nearby at the time!

Jo Norejko The Brooks family"s house in "Mr. Brooks" is definitely a favourite of mine

ellielascari I absolutely loved the house in the 80's movie, House Sitter, with Goldie Hawn and Steve Martin. Adore the houses in Something's Gotta Give, Marley and Me, and Father of the Bride.
I just read Becky Harris' comment about the House Sitter house. I'm soooo disappointed to learn that it wasn't an actual house, but was built for the movie and then torn down. Every time I watched the movie I dreamed about living in it and envied the family that probably did.

Christine Austin Design I had to buy Something's Gotta Give because I had so many clients who requested their Kitchen look like Hers.

arielago I remember Barbra Streisand's character had a memorable desert house in A Star is Born.

Pine Street Carpenters & The Kitchen Studio Tree houses count, right?!

Becky Harris arielago, did you catch Babs at the Oscars last night? Memories!

AMERICA ITALIANA The Italian Villa in "Under the Tuscan Sun" it's beautiful!

Adelene Keeler Smith Interior Design My all time favorite movie homes:
"The Pleasure of his Company" starring Fred Astaire & Debbie Reynolds (my moving van's ready!) Timeless and exquisite...
"What lies Beneath" starring Harrison Ford & Kim Basinger AND Kim's historic bachelorette cottage in "LA Confidential"
James Bond - M's London high rise and various offices are fabulous -
"What Women Want" starring Helen Hunt - her new flat is to die for!

emmasaunt Adelene, What Lies Beneath starred Michelle Pfeiffer. I love that house too and grew up on the other side of that bridge. I second the apartment from The Break-up. Hate the movie but will suffer through for views that home.

I also loved Michael Caine's house in Children of Men...all those books. It was so cosy and a testament to lives well lived.

littlemissgiggles Hi Im a huge house and movie fan, some of my favorite movie houses have got to be the tree house and 70s houses in ''Now and Then'' starring Helen Hunt. The house from the ''The Labrinth'' starring David Bowie I grow up watching it and I loved the little girls bedroom and I always wanted one just like it. I also love the old houses in the movie ''Little Women'' and the one in ''How To Make An American Quilt'' both starring Clare Danes, I love the house in tvs ''Charmed'' Briget Jones apartment in ''Briget Jones Diarys'' Meg Rynen's book store in ''You've Got Mail'', I love houses in Jane Austen movies, Im irish, living in Ireland and I love old irish houses. But right now Im living in my 1960s home.

existlookingup The Dr. Oliver Bronson House in the Bourne Legacy. Incredible! Maybe there will be a Fixer Upper category.

georgethecat The house from Home Alone is fantastic.

Lee Poehler need pics of the houses...some of these movies never seen and some don't care to watch, but love looking at homes in general.

LAYLA RIAL Agree with previous comments re: The Ghost Writer; I dare to dream. Nancy Meyer has a gifted ability to illustrate what we all want before we knew we wanted it. She brings ideals to life. I'd love to see what my two favorite Kellys (Hopper and Wearstler) would design if they were to do a set.

loroca -All the houses in A Series Of Unfortunate Evens
- The farmhouse in Babe
-bilbo's House! In Lord of the Rings
- all of rivendale in Lord of the Rings
- the apartment in Amelie

ddchumley Almost twenty years ago, I saw the movie Love Affair (re-make of An Affair to Remember) and I'm still lusting over the house Katherine Hepburn's character lived in. Huge veranda, Bahama shutters, crisp white couches, plank floors--relaxed elegance. I can feel the ocean breeze just thinking about it.

noojsmum Stepmom house is forever in my mind!

Sherry Moore The San Juan Islands house from " five easy pieces" with a very young Jack Nicholson.

Dawn Taillon Oh I have it, I know you Houzzers will agree with this one, Jude Law and Cameron Diaz,'s
"The Holiday" 's home in England, OH MY Gosh, that cottage is so awesome. In fact all the houses in the movie are fantastic.

marissa camacho "Love Affair"!!! Thank God, someone else noticed how beeeeeeyutiful that house is. You open the walls all the way leaving only the posts allowing the balmy wind to breeze through from all directions. I really made sure to scroll down through all the comments to see if anyone else fell in love with that charmer. We are having a house built next month and that is what I patterned it on. My only problem is that, I do not have 100% say on what happens and hubby's first question is always about security!!! i wish I just shoot a wisecrack answer like, "Easy, get the island as well!"

marissa camacho BTW, I am talking about the Warren Beatty-Annette Bening flick in 1994. Please, do everything you can to see that movie.

ljhall Steve Martin and Goldie Hawn's house in 'The Housesitter' (pictured)? And I can't believe no one has mentioned the mansion from The Witches of Eastwick!

ljhall Not the best pic of the 'witches' mansion....but love jack Nicholson's spread!

Jody Thompson Okay....I have to weigh in here. When I look at houses, the part I am most fascinated with is the library. So it would make sense that my all-time favorite set / house is My Fair Lady with the two-story library!!! Another thing that intrigues me are secret passages. I once visited a castle near Toronto, Canada that was amazing! My boys think the castle in Young Frankenstein is super cool as well. Great idea book, Becky.

mamadama Ever see Mr. Belding Builds His Dream House? Nothing beats a beautiful house unless it's a beautiful Cary Grant.

twilcox YES! YES! YES! to the house in the movie Stepmom, where Susan Sarandon lived! I want to live there!!!!

Conservatory Craftsmen Saving Grace! The story revolves around the house, and especially the Conservatory! The cinematography will have you longing for a trip to the UK!

ktadindavis I live in the suburbs but dream of Barbara Bel Geddes' apartment (and art studio) in "Vertigo."

Madison Modern Home Paul Rudd and Rashida Jones' house in "I Love You Man"

firepeak Best modern beach house: The Ghost Writer (does anyone know if this was the same house as in Anthony Zimmer?). Best vegetable garden: Merrill Streep's place in "It's Complicated"

lkunf Hands down...the FG plantation home...beautiful Beaufort by the sea.....

lkunf Another great was "The Big Chill" plantation home....

minnaliz i love the house from the film "House Sitter" with Goldie Hawn and Steve Martin

Erno Windt For an apartment, Mia Farrow and John Cassavetes' (or rather Rosemary and Guy Woodhouse's) Dakota apartment in Rosemary's Baby.

dsnygrl One word.... Tara

maoms01 I would,love to have the library in My Fair Lady

Suzanne Connolly The movied ended with the start of the renovation in "It's Complicated". I would have loved to see the finished product as I could envision the planned changes!

cheapdiva How could you leave out the house in Stepmom - one of my all time favorite movie houses! Or the English cottage in Holiday? Or the house in Family Stone? I could go on . . . and on!

nccurran303 The house in "Something's Gotta Give" is my absolute favorite. Even though I am a house lover I rarely pay attention to them in movies. But that house....!!! The kitchen and the bedroom were beautiful, but my favorite scene was when they were eating dinner sitting at the round dining table. They had 4 glass or probably crystal candlesticks as the centerpiece. I loved them. I was obsessed. I found similar looking ones online from a floral supply house. Now I have my own as a centerpiece. Weird source of decorating inspiration!

maritajb I have been mesmerised by house decoration more than the plot on several movies, particularly films set in the 50's including Revolutionary Road, The Tree of Life and series like Mad Men. I also love Downton Abbey for the gorgeous photography of the decor, that opening shot with the crystal against a deep teal green wall always catches my breath. I think it's great that film-make appreciate how much the colours, furnishing and decorative elements of a house can tell us so much about the characters, just as the best homes reflect their owners.

pattydshugaree I've always been crazy about the country house Micheal Douglas's character bought in Fatal Attraction.That's where I got the obsession about having a beautiful fireplace in the kitchen. Also the Carmel by the Sea house of Clint Eastwood's character in Play Misty For Me. Very cool California style.

moccasinlanding Another good one is BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL. I actually felt I could smell the mustiness of the rooms, but the garden was exquisitely beautiful.

rpdesignfreak The fabulous art deco flat in Miss Pettigrew Lives For A Day. I could just move right in!!!

Cindy Schneider I love the house on "Complicated"

Chantal Looyen I'm showing my love for the supernatural genre here, but I absolutely love the Cullen house from the Twilight Saga (The Hoke House by Skylab Architects). The Arts and Crafts style home in Zathura is beautiful. I also love the Victorian home from Charmed (not a movie though). maybe you could do a TV house list next Becky?

Becky Harris Chantal, we have the Twilight house on Houzz - http://www.houzz.com/Hoke-house

Hmmm, a tv list, that is a good idea. I just wish we could get permission for more photography! Right now I am still trying to figure out how Betty Draper moved into The Addams Family house on Mad Men. Of course, the Brady Bunch is one of the most iconic TV houses to me, the kitchen on Family Ties, the living room on The Cosby Show .... oh this would be fun! Thanks!

Chantal Looyen You could add Desperate Housewives Wisteria Lane, Salvatore Boarding House from Vampire Diaries, Seinfeld, How I Met Your Mother, Dallas, The OC... The list is endless. TV people have awesome houses. Ennis House by Frank Lloyd Wright has been used in Buffy and a few movies.

jaxsue A lot of those locations are on a TV lot, so they're not real. Desperate Housewives and Seinfeld are that way, and probably most of the other TV shows as well.

Becky Harris Chantal, a friend of mine here in ATL is a set decorator for those vamps on the CW.

Bowden Carroll Design I seem to remember an interesting interior "garden" in Andie MacDowell's apartment in "Green Card"... And my brother used to rave about the ever-changing interiors in "Auntie Mame" from 1958!

Suvra Chakrabarti The Cullens house in 'Twilight'

Emma Drohan Interiors Love the Californian house in the original Parent Trap with Hayley Mills
