Reece Witherspoons House in Home Again
I've gotta paw it to yous guys — when there'south a house you want me to feature, you're persistent about it! I got so many requests to come across Reese Witherspoon'south house from the movie "Home Once again," I lost count.
The rom-com was filmed on location inside this sugariness 1929 Spanish-style hacienda in Brentwood, California.
It was already accustomed to a certain amount of fame, having been formerly owned by celebs similar Cindy Crawford and Jennifer Garner.
Have a look!
Reese Witherspoon's House in "Home Again"
At the start of the movie is a flashback to the 70s, indicated by the sepia tones and peacock chairs.
We later on run across those same "Morticia Addams chairs" in the present-day scenes outside Alice's chamber.
"Home Over again" was produced by Nancy Meyers, so you know the sets are going to be good!
We have her to thank for some of our favorite picture houses, from Something's Gotta Give to Father of the Bride.
Her daughter Hallie Meyers-Shyer wrote and directed information technology.
The Entry Hall:
The Living Room:
The movie'due south about Alice (Witherspoon), who recently left her husband and moved into her tardily father's dwelling house with her girls.
On her 40th birthday, she meets three aspiring filmmakers who need a identify to stay. With a little arm-twisting (and plot twisting), she agrees to let them alive in her invitee house.
She starts an affair with one of the immature men (played by Pico Alexander, who was 25 when he filmed this, merely simply looked about 18 to me), and some other ane falls hard for her, as well. Things get even more than complicated when her ex (Michael Sheen) shows upwardly to win her back.
There's a pink theme running through the house, which emphasizes the idea that Alice and her girls are living hither on their ain. At to the lowest degree that was the plan, until the three young guys moved into the guest business firm and the ex showed up with his suitcase…
These drinking glass doors off the kitchen expect slap-up.
As someone who ducks and covers whenever someone unexpected rings the doorbell, though, they wouldn't work for me, ha.
The Kitchen:
The countertops aren't actually woods. They only put contact newspaper on them to await like butcher block.
For the flashback to the 1970s nosotros see the kitchen looking very retro with different tile and curtains:
They used stick-on vinyl tile for the back splash in the flick.
Candice Bergman played Alice'due south mom, and now I can't wait for the "Murphy Brown" reboot!
I found photos of the house from when information technology was listed in 2013 that you can run into here.
I took equally many screenshots of the firm as I could while watching the moving picture.
There weren't a lot of wide shots of the rooms, unfortunately, and so you have to kind of mentally piece together how the spaces connect.
For instance, you get glimpses of the breakfast room and dining room through the doorways behind them:
The Dining Room:
I really like the classic bluish and white scheme they went with in the kitchen and dining room.
Product Designer Ellen Brill says, "We didn't put a lot of night things in the house."
She told the L.A. Times, "The house is like a character in the motion-picture show. That's what happens in Nancy Meyers movies. We were on a limited budget, but Hallie knew that she wanted a very calorie-free and bright feel to the identify. She wanted it to feel very much like California. Antiques with a practiced patina always piece of work.
Alice'south Dad's Onetime Office in the House:
Alice's Bedroom
Brill created the colorful headboard in the master sleeping room with two rugs from Raoul Textiles.
Alice's Home Function:
Those window treatments await like the Bingham curtains from Ballard Designs.
I found some photos of the house that were taken by abode stager Meridith Baer.
She posted them on her Facebook page and wrote: "We were thrilled to donate select MBH furnishings for the set of Dwelling Again Movie, the directorial debut from Hallie Myers-Shyer, and starring Reese Witherspoon. This dwelling house is the definition of California absurd!"
Ellen Brill as well worked on sets for American Horror Story and Parenthood.
They wanted the "Home Again" interiors to accept a mix of rustic, Midcentury and bohemian influences.
The Family Room:
The Invitee Firm in the Backyard:
The producers needed a property that came with a guest house, then this 1 fit the bill!
In the distance are the two chairs nosotros saw in the 1970s flashback:
Patio with Fireplace:
This brick patio with the fireplace and built-in seating created ane of my favorite "rooms" in the film.
