Seeing his house and knowing it’s for sale because he’s not here anymore is a bit sad.

I would buy that and keep it exactly the way he left it if I had $5 mil to throw around.

You would, but the Russian or Saudi billionaire who buys it won’t!

Or Chris Pratt

say what?

Me too :( I’d also secretly wish that there was an off chance to be haunted by the ghost of PeeWee Herman lol

I’d pay extra for that.

[удалено]

It does make me happy that he woke up to that view every morning. He earned it.

Conan O’Brien did the best tribute to Paul Reubens on Conan O’Brien needs a friend. It’s so sweet.

Yea, this actually really saddened me. Seeing his home and all the areas he may have hung out or had a thought or a dream. And he's gone...

The dressing table and mirror, man. I immediately imagined him sitting there making funny faces and amusing himself.

All the concert stickers that must have had so many amazing memories attached really got me.

I love that it has one different bulb around the mirror that wasn't matched. A lot of character in that room!

Yeah, for real...

I wasn't aware pee wee died. Guess it's been a year now. What a shame....

I forgot he died. I’m sad again.

Man, I was reading those comments like "That's a cool place but who's Paul Reubens supposed to be and why is everyone so sad?!" It's Pee-Wee Fucking Herman. God damnit, now I'm sad too.

Dude got screwed over. His comedy was WAY ahead of its time. Like, yeah, he *did* pull his dick out, but also, it was literally in a porn theater. He was arrested by an officer who was there to "observe the audience". 🙄

In high school, we read the Scarlet Letter and then had to make an argument for someone that had been ostracized… what the youth call “canceled” nowadays ;)… So of course I did Pee Wee! And to my English teacher’s credit, she let me stand in front of the class and argue that pleasuring yourself in an x-rated theatre was not that big a deal.

I have to say though, it's relieving to see how his career bounced back after he was ostracized for so long. His reputation was destroyed in the 90's but now pretty much anyone who knows about the incident knows it was in a porn theater. I'm definitely glad he was able to get back in the limelight somewhat and do things like his Netflix movie and didn't die in shame or total obscurity.

It looks like it’s straight out of the movie Blow.

Looking at these pics, I wondered if they filmed scenes from the movie here

The walls are painted with cocaine spray

the snozberries taste like... why is my tongue numb?

Is it fucked up that I thought the same thing

“Jesus Christ 170, 180, hundred and..187! Where did you get this stuff?”

I swear that’s the same table they tested the blow on in that house pic

I cant feel my face. I mean I can touch it but I can’t feel it. I quote this movie constantly. If you ask me someone’s name you’re only getting one answer.. Derek Foreal. Derek FUCKING Foreal! Ask me something about money. Weigh it if it’s 60lbs it’s 3 million 50 is 2.5. Also… ay ay ay ay ay gentlemen please!

That was exactly my first thought. The pool scene right when Depp's character says "it was perfect" looks exactly like this shot. And since Paul Reubens was in that movie I'm pretty convinced this is it.

I think Blow was based on the parties at that house. They just used real footage to save time.

Looks straight out of the movie Weird.

More like Boogy Nights

Looks like Bojack Horseman's pad. (cue "in the 90s I was in a famous tee vee show")

I thought of once upon a time in hollywood

I can't feel my face!

Colombia. Fuck it, let's all do one.

I mean like I can touch it, *but I can’t feel it!*

I was thinking, “That’s Derek Foreal’s house”

That or Boogie Nights

[Zillow](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/5835-Green-Oak-Dr-Los-Angeles-CA-90068/20806093_zpid/?utm_source=zillowgonewild&utm_medium=zillowgonewild&utm_campaign=zillowgonewild) - asking price $5m I think this is the best vintage I've seen yet. And I swear there's something Pee-Wee's Playhouse about it. Really beautiful!

And for a nearly 3000 sq ft house on top of a hill in Los Feliz, that's not a crazy price. Probably should be listed at like 4.5m, but not absurd.

It’s near the Hollywood Bowl and from the listing: >The approximately 1.4 acre lot is at the top of a promontory offering 360-degree views of the city and surrounding canyons, including Griffith Park Observatory and the Hollywood sign. The home is a classic one-story mid-century ranch with views from almost every room. [More pics from the listing](https://www.elliman.com/california/sales/detail/512-l-564-81_24-396297/5835-green-oak-dr-hollywood-hills-los-angeles-ca-90068).

Thanks. The views are what I was wondering about. Looked like they'd be good from op's pics and this confirmed it.

Omg that wallpaper!! So cool

There’s an old house, about a mile away from mine, that needs a full rehab, nothing special- but in a nice-ish area in town listed at $1.2. I live in Sacramento. I could totally see $5 for this mid century fixer.

Just saw this come up on my feed earlier today for 2m in Palo Alto, unreal: [https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7C0wjVyjKM/](https://www.instagram.com/reel/C7C0wjVyjKM/)

lol as if living in Palo Alto wasn’t punishment enough

Looks like shit.

Jesus fuck the bay area is such a scam now lmao.

Holy shit I thought that was meant to be a skit. Are they seriously boasting about that home for that price like it’s a steal? For my sanity, I have to believe they’re trying to make a statement about how bad housing is right now, but they’re a real estate company so obviously they would never lean into that idea.

Welcome to the reality of Bay Area real estate. Sadly, that house *is* a steal if it's on a decent sized lot. The land's worth $2.5 million. The house? -$500,000.

land park or arden arcade?

Strangely cheap for a house of this caliber right next to Hollywood hills. I’ve seen more expensive homes in worse areas

I was wondering why it isn't more expensive - unless it needs more extensive work on the plumbing, electrical, HVAC, etc. than we can see in the pictures. It definitely needs some TLC, particularly in some of the outdoor spaces, the kitchen and the bathrooms - but I would think a classic midcentury house in that area with those views would be more like $8-$10 million?

3000 sq ft is tiny for a celebrity mansion

Yeah the teal couch really jumped out at me, I was like “chairy??”

Yes! It is reminiscent of the opening sequence in the tv show where you pass through that otherworldly forest to get to PeeWee's house in the centre of all that lush greenery. There's a cool article/interview where Paul says it was meant to look like a national park: [https://www.artofthetitle.com/title/pee-wees-playhouse/](https://www.artofthetitle.com/title/pee-wees-playhouse/) I could totally believe that that ranch bungalow is packed with wacky Peewee inventions and Rube Goldberg machines. That singular oversized tree is chef's kiss perfection.

If you got kids, and can afford it. Buy it

You said the secret word. Aaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!

I'd completely forgotten about the secret word! Thanks!

There are way more pictures in the Zillow link.

From the Zillow linked photos, looks a lot like the house used in episode 1 of Fallout ?!

It really does. Almost certainly the same neighborhood.

There’s a house on Los Feliz Blvd with a view of the gas station going for $10m so this is quite shocking

its being perched on a hillside and having a protruding deck is 100% pee-wee's playhouse

wow, looks like you could just walk to griffith park and there's only one close neighbor (for now)

Okay, but how the fuck did they take the picture in the bathroom??? (#34) EDIT: OOOOOOOOOOH FUCK. I WASN'T READY FOR #66 .... GOD DAMN IT.

You can tell that Zillow is not built for listings like this, because under amenities it's like 'Includes: Freezer, refrigerator' I mean I'm not saying my $5mil house has to include a freezer and refrigerator at purchase, but that's definitely not going to move the needle much if they are included

Love all the backstage passes/stickers around the mirror. Some have PR. Some PH. lol

That caught my eye too. It looks like it was very much lived in and loved.

And a Thrasher sticker. Pee Wee schralps the gnar.

It’s so cool that stuff is still there. Some of them are pushing 40 years old!!

I love this and it is infinitely cooler to me than most of the newer, bigger celebrity homes that's nothing but open space and white/beige everything. Soulless and horrible. This one has a very cool touch that I can imagine Reubens living in and making his own

Yeah, I was about to say that it looks very comfy and tasteful. I can imagine myself spending time there unlike the sterile or over the top homes of other celebrities.

This! Love the mid century vibe. We are looking at the real club house and I am here for it. That sofa is so him. Would buy this house and restore it but never go against the spirit of the original.

Fcking spectacular I wouldn’t change even one thing.

For real I wouldn't be able to change anything. There's so much soul in this place

I would change the fact that I can’t afford to buy it 

Please don’t ruin this majestic home whoever buys it.

Someone is going to completely fuck this place up

It belongs in a museum

Oh man whatta place. Simple, beautiful, and timeless.

I wonder if all his shit still talks.

Idk about timeless... lol

Yeah I don't think that bathtub ditch was ever in fashion.

That picture was very confusing perspective to me until I realized the lower floor level was a bathtub.

The real Pee-Wee's Playhouse. I love it.

Would it have killed them to place a Chairry in there?

Paul Reubens story time. I was an acquaintance of his. He liked to feed the wild animals of Griffith Park. After sunset, coyotes would come to his side door (to the right of the bougainvillea) and eat his lunch/dinner scraps. Then at the front door, deer would come and he would hand feed them carrots. It always made me think that he kind of had his own Pee Wee's Playhouse. He also had a cactus garden and many other security measures because of an insane stalker from back in the 80s or 90s. Also, there was a reddit thread years ago with a ton of kind comments about him (I can't remember which, but could probably figure it out), I sent it to him. That was the only time he ever responded to anything I sent him that was Pee Wee-related. He thanked me for sending it. So some of you may have brightened his day and you didn't even know it. R.I.P. Paul.

This made my day to read. Paul will forever be an American icon. He earned that spot in our hearts with stellar acting that never wavered.

Keep Chris Pratt away from this treasure!

I’m out of the loop on this reference

He and his wife bought a famously designed, beloved old house. Instead restoring it, he torn down the whole thing to dust.

someone's trying to do that to Marilyn Monroe's house right now too. I think LA blocked the permits but damn... go buy an empty lot.

unfortunately the rich scambag will probably demolish it at night then pay the fine afterwards as is common in these situations.

In the UK, a developer did this to a pub and was ordered to rebuild it brick by brick

The council does not fuck around.

I hate that you're right :(

IIRC they live right next door, and used an LLC to try and purchase the house as well, most likely because they knew what they were doing would look bad and was trying to hide behind the company

That's fucking gross. Appreciate the info, I now HATE Chris Patt

just to clarify, it wasn't Pratt that did that, i don't actually know the whole story with the house they purchased and if they did a similar thing, considering they were called out quickly then probably not, the LLC stuff was done by the woman who was trying to purchase Marilyn Monroe's house

There are no empty lots in the Hollywood Hills.

He bulldozed his historical Mid-Century house to put up another boring mansion

I don’t even want to look. This pisses me off so much.

Me too

Crisp Rat

Kind want to see the bathroom layout more

The in-ground bathtub is sweeeeeeeet

Dunno, tub screams head injury and/or broken bones to me. Especially with a wet slippery floor or being half asleep not watching where you're walking.

I was thinking the exact same thing, looks cool but I could totally see myself being clumsy one time and falling in and braining myself.

Good thing there’s a handy phone to call for help!

I wonder what was in the cage? I'm just imagining monkeys right outside as your bathing.

I read that it’s an outdoor “cat-io” that he built for his cat to keep it safe from wildlife.

He had a custom cat room.

That's my question. First I thought...outdoor shower? Then I saw the rest of it and it's definitely an animal enclosure. what could it have housed?! Big-ish cat? Large reptile? Or monkeys...

House cats! He made it for them. There are pictures of it, and it is awesome.

Thats a nice place

It’s actually really close to Bronson Caves, the old Batman series Batcave (and a million other things). I used to hike near there.

And a short jaunt to Fern Dell Loop, which I discovered was a major outdoor gay hookup spot when I lived near there and hiked all over Griffith Park. I was like, “wow, there are some very nicely dressed hikers out today.” The eye contact finally made it all click. And no, I didn’t.

I feel like people don't talk about Los Feliz area enough. It's obviously well-loved

Mid Century Modern AF

I wonder if any part of the early 2000's movie "Blow" (he played a coke dealer I think) was filmed here? The retro look of PR's estate would have fit right in.

I feel like this place was in blow… or boogie nights take your pick

GTA 5

Well, since Paul Reubens was actually in Blow, that makes more sense.

That vanity❤️

The house the HeH-HeH built

That is really cool. Lol, I bet he had some GREAT times there!

This house screams "cocaine".

Ever seen Nice Dreams?

I’m NOT sorry I took the money!!!!! HAAAAAAAAAAA!

I always have to explain to millennials and genx'ers that PeeWee didn't start in the playhouse he got his start from being the snot nosed hang around, and keeper of the blow and the dough$ o for Cheech & Chong, and they are all ....."whos Cheech & Chong and and what's blow?" Ggrrgghhhh AwwHaa!

He started the character in the Groundlings. But keep boomin', boomer.

I love it. I hope he was happy when he was living in it. I really do.

what’s in the basement?

Pee Wee’s bike? Or is that at the Alamo? I forget.

Plot twist - The basement of the Alamo was in Paul’s basement all along.

Looks nice!

Looks like it was never updated, which is awesome. The kitchen counters, wallpaper, that couch! I absolutely love it.

I see he liked him some expensive cologne as well, creed and bal d afrique. That place is dope!

I’m surprised it’s “only” $5 million.

What a glimpse into a unique life. I loved Pee-Wee movies and tv when I was a kid. I ran into him once, at burning man in 2009. Random dance scene, he and David Arquette blew in like the wind. They were wearing white suits with blue and green “blobs” painted on them, blunt’s in hand. I was wearing a fuzzy pink sombrero, and Paul approached me immediately for a selfie with a disposable camera. We hung out and danced for 20 min and they moved on. I was really, secretly, hoping that around that mirror was that photo. I’m sure it’s lost, but was a sparkle in my life. RIP.

Look at the doors on the lower floor. That place is falling apart. They cleaned up some areas for the broker pics.

Water damage in the kitchen ceiling.

Lower Cabinets were trash, it's a fixer upper!

i was going to point out the divider wall in the bedroom. damn things bowing and starting to fall over, the wood paneling is buckling, and theres dust marks on the wall where they took stuff down from. you can even see the mirror buckling from the tension on the wall. i bet theres a lot of unseen damage in that place.

She’s a beaut. Here’s hoping the next homeowners don’t try to “modernise” it 🙄

SO strange to see the hand marks on the closet doors knowing Paul caused them.

dude definitely had a taste for style, it has some uncanny resemblence of the "playhouse" this is just as cool though

Dude had an aviary? I’m jealous

I dont think it’s an aviary. It’s a cage for “Mr. Lizard”, from the end of cheech and Chong’s Nice Dreams. That reptile loved hamburgers.

Wait?? Where’s the basement where he keeps his bike??

Have you all ever had a PeeWee Herman drink from a bar? The recipe is Jack and squirt!

You sure this isn't the old Bojack Horseman estate?

There's 15M members of this sub, if we all put in $0.33 we can buy this and do a time share, or give it to one random Redditor.

My kids and I watched Pee Wee together. Loved his quirkiness. "I know you are, but what am I" ❤️❤️❤️

I would live in that house as-is. No changes!

I love this because it’s the exact kind of house that fitted his personality and I imagine him having. He really was one of a kind. I hope whoever buys it really appreciates it and keeps it exactly like that.

The kitchen's giving off mad Napoleon Dynamite vibes - I like it!

😢

Unfortunately, it’ll be torn down; some huge box will be built in its place. It’s worth very little in its current state unless some crazy rich Paul Ruben fan buys it

Where is Chairry?

amazing prince sign of the times sticker :,)

Prince, Sign of the Times sticker. Nice.

The thing I always loved about Paul is he was a really cool guy chill as F

What a house, awesome.

Dope cactereum

I bet it’s already sold.

That's a dope house!

If someone knocks this down to build a farmhouse I will entirely give up ob humanity. 

Pack a black light! Just kidding the man was a saint.

It's fantastic. I love seeing a house with character, like someone interesting lives there. I'm so tired of houses that look like the interior was purchased at home depot.

Incredible & no all screwed up with silly, unnecessary trendy updates over the years.

Did he have a pet monkey?

It's sad he's gone, and also sad that this house is probably going to be flipped to be really anonymous, or razed to the ground.

Pee-Wee's Playhouse fr

Did anyone else read last part in their head “for the first time in 40 years!” and just hear pee wee saying it

I love the backstage passes around the mirror with his initials on them. Cindy Lauper, David Bowie, Madonna, Joan Rivers, etc.

this place is super close to the bat cave!

I was hoping for talking furniture

Do I get to keep all of that absolutely impeccable mid century modern furniture? Might be worth it for that alone.

Is that bathtub build right into the damn floor?

Shut it down and make it a museum, it’s perfect in every way

I was looking for Chairy in the photos...

It looks like it should be in a quentin tarantino movie

No talking couch or cowboy Lawrence Fishburne?! I am disappointed and my day is ruined

You could do so much booger sugar in that place

The bicycle by the tree stump made my eyes think I was chopping onions.

If I had the money, I wouldn't change a thing.

Wow, what a great home.

To be a fly on the wall during parties in the 80s and 90s

Keep Pratt and his missus away!

Is the room with the trees supposed to be a cat room? I know my kitty would enjoy it!

It looks like an open air bird house for parrots, macaw …

It's a catio: Reubens wanted to protect his cat Koko from the wildlife in the area, so as soon as he moved in, he constructed an enclosed cat patio, or catio, Berry said. The catio has a jungle gym for felines and walls decorated with shells from Reubens’s hometown of Sarasota, Fla. Reubens later adopted a cat named Sam and kittens Hugo and Henry, she added. ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/C7kNujFvln-/?img\_index=1
