“I Still Dream About Her Walk In Closet”: People Are Sharing The Homes From TV And Movies That Live Rent-Free In Their Heads

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.

A closet big enough to twirl in??? I’m drooling.

Sing-along time!

Aside from, you know, the murders, I’d take any spot in that building if I could afford it.

Oh, and check out the real-life Arconia, aka the Belnord:

That bookshelf needs to come get in my bedroom, and I wouldn’t mind having that chair around either. 

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

And now I am once again obsessed with Arnold’s massive skylight. The things I could write at that desk…

If the sight of Arnold’s room just filled you with sweet, delicious nostalgia, check out this 3D recreation made by a talented artist featuring little snippets of the show:

The scenes in this house are very dark, literally and figuratively, but I’m not complaining about the modern vibe and cool lighting in the garage.

Here’s a brighter view of the real-life location and architectural landmark, Headland House in Australia:

Just look at that classic old New York City building.

And this rooftop patio!! Is that a mimosa I see? I’ve never watched this show, but I might have to for this apartment alone.

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?”

Fancy a room with a view? Captain Picard can see the whole galaxy from his.

Even the android Commander Data has a nice cozy spot to share with his feline companion, Spot.

The perfect place to accidentally catfish your nemesis and fall in love.

9. “Susan’s or Lynette’s house on Desperate Housewives. I loved Susan’s kitchen, and Lynette’s was so homely.”

Check out this behind-the-scenes tour of the Wisteria Lane set used in Desperate Housewives and other shows and movies like The Burbs and even The Munsters.

It’s a coastal grandmother fantasy house.

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:

And here’s a walk-through of this classic set:

I’ll take it, as long as I don’t have to marry anyone named Henry…

And here’s a tour of the real-life castle:

Raise your hand if Gilmore Girls is one of your comfort shows ??‍♀️. I swear just seeing the tiles on their kitchen counter gives me a wave of serotonin.

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.”

Aaand this is now a Gillian Anderson appreciation post. Please discuss.

16. “The mid-century dream apartment given to Renée Zellweger’s character in Down with Love. Is it possible for an apartment to live rent-free in my brain? Because this one does.”

BTW, if you love this movie and this style, pleeease check out Doris Day and Rock Hudson in Pillow Talk. They are the blueprint.

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

This loft is indeed sun soaked, as promised in the ad.

18. “Julia Louis-Dreyfus and David Duchovny’s house in You People. Omg it was BEAUTIFUL!”

If you gotta have an awkward time, might as well be in a beautiful house.

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.”

Absolutely everything about this place is epic.

Just for kicks, here’s the mattress surfing scene:

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.”
