A real live version of the Simpons house: http://design-fetish.blogspot.com/2009/11/real-simpsons-house.html

The $120,000 house was constructed for use as the grand prize in a contest sponsored by Pepsi, Fox, and the homebuilder. The contest was known as "The Simpsons House Give Away".

Very cool.

If they were going to do it 100% correct, then they should have seen the garage is all wrong..

but still cool..

I'm sure I remember this from a competition a few years back are they rerunning it?

Yeah, they kinda missed the target there :/ (At least the outside)

$120,000 for a 2 story house with garage?

Man that is one ugly colour scheme. forget whether or not it's accurate you'd go blind living in there.

spend 5k repainting it and you've got yourself an awesome house.

s*** you know a cheap painter bro hook us up

i think the bigger question is, if it indeed the simpsons house, where is springfield?

somewhere between ohio, nevada, maine and kentucky.

Here?

Did you mean:
Springfield, Sangamon, IL
Springfield, Hampden, MA
Springfield, Clark, OH
Springfield, Lane, OR
Springfield, Fairfax, VA
Springfield, Robertson, TN
Springfield, Penobscot, ME 04487
Springfield, Lauderdale, AL 35652
Springfield, Randolph, AL 36274

theres like 30 something springfields in america.

there was an origional thread about this here a few years ago.. i think it also told of how the winner of the house painted it and tried to sell it straight away..

too gaudy to live in

i think it also told of how the winner of the house painted it and tried to sell it straight away..

I think i read when this first was built that the paint job violated housing codes or something and was painted immediately after the give away.
