9 Iconic Homes from Movies and Television

November 5, 2021
  • Share

The art of making a fantastic show or movie isn’t just about great characters. It needs an iconic setting. Whether that is in an apartment with six friends or inside an old mysterious mansion. A movie or tv show will have a lasting impression if the character’s home is memorable. I recently toured one of my personal favorites, the Beverly House that was featured in The Bodyguard. It is a Spanish Colonial Revival with a gorgeous garden and pool. It was a cool experience to tour an iconic location. It was also hectic because I kept being asked to stop taking videos of the house. I couldn’t resist! I highly recommend going on tours of famous homes from movies and tv shows. Just be more discreet with your phone than I was.

The photo above is known as the Wollaton Hall located in England. Several movies have filmed on location including The Dark Knight Rises and Netflix’s Princess Switch. Wollaton Hall was built by Sir Francis Willoughby between 1580 and 1588. The hall is also the host for the Natural History Museum.

Check out my other blog to get a tour of the Beverly House.

The home that launched Will Smith into stardom has recently been seen on The Late Late show with James Corden. Corden tried to convince Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to buy the home. The exterior of the home was the only part of the house that was used for the show. The interiors were designed on a soundstage at Columbia/Sunset Gower Studios.

Before you start moving furniture, ask yourself thBefore you start moving furniture, ask yourself these three questions:
Does this improve the room’s function?
Does it create a better focal point?
Does it make the space easier to walk through?
If the answer is “no” to all three, maybe it’s just the rearranging itch talking. 😅
Save this for the next time you’re tempted to move every piece of furniture in your house.
Watch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? TWatch to the end to weigh in. Clogs or no clogs? They are on sale...not sure.
Summer sale season is here, and we are not holding back. 👏
This is the time of year to finally grab those pieces you’ve been eyeing all season. The good news? Major markdowns are happening right now across some of the best brands.
Our tip: Shop with intention. Know your palette, know your fit, and choose pieces that work with what you already own, not just because they’re on sale.
We’ve already done the hard work and created a Summer Sale Shopping Board filled with our favorite finds. A Shopping Board is like your own storefront. It’s a curated collection of products you can shop yourself or share with others to earn when they purchase through your links.
✨ Want to make it yours?
Comment SALE and we’ll send you the link. Then just tap “Add This Board” to save it to your Chirpyest account.
Or grab the link here 👉 https://www.chirpyest.com/s/cocoedit/summer-sale-2026/2071?mode=share
From there, you can shop the collection, share it with your audience, earn from your recommendations, and get cashback on your own purchases. 💛
This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and k This is the house that stopped us mid-scroll and kept us there.
A 90s home in Amman, Jordan, entirely remodelled by local artisans. Neo-Florentine bones, Levant-eclectic sensibility, arched passageways, and a flea-market-meets-commissioned-art collection that makes every wall feel intentional.
What makes it work: restraint where you’d expect excess, and boldness where you’d expect safety.
This is what happens when a home is built by people who actually know the place. 🖤
Save this, it’s a masterclass in culturally rooted design.

Panic mode activated!
If you only have 10 minutes, focus on these three things:
1. Make the bed. It instantly makes the whole room look cleaner.
2. Fold or straighten the throw blanket and pillows.
3. Clear visible clutter from nightstands and the floor.
That’s it. Those three steps make the biggest visual impact without deep cleaning.
Save this for the next time you need a fast bedroom reset. 🔖

Black is not a bold choice. It’s a neutral, and one of the most versatile ones in design.
The rooms that get it right treat black the same way others treat white or greige: as a foundation that lets everything else breathe. The texture of the wall. The warmth of the wood. The drama of the marble. Black doesn’t compete, it amplifies.
Save this the next time someone talks you out of going dark. 🖤
