Brady Bunch House Oddities
The real house in only a one story. The film crew hung a fake window in the peaked roof area to make it look like two stories. Even if you let yourself believe it's a two story, it doesn't match the floorplan of the inside of the house. As you know, you go up the stairs on the right side of the house and that is where the upstairs is. Not the left side of the house where the (fake) second story is. I remember thinking that when I was 9!
In one of the newer Brady Bunch satire/whatever movies (I didn't care for them...Greg having incestual feelings towards his sister was just disgusting to me, but that's another thread) they cheated by shooting the house from an angle that the tree covered where the "window" would have been, as obviously there is no window there.
It is amazing that they didn't bother to shoot another house, or even a phony one on the backlot, that more closely resembled the layout of the interior set. One of those odd things that was never cleared up!

I always find myself doing that as well when I watch indoor/outdoor shots of tv houses.

Brady House
Well, I never tried to disprove the real house vs. the studio set. I just wanted to immerse myself into the Brady home and just believe that it was real.
I always wished the Bradys or Partridges could've adopted me.

I thought it was pretty cool to just stand in front of the "real" Brady house, take pictures, and admire it. 37 years after the Brady Bunch hit the airwaves that house is still recognizable today as the Brady's.
I'm with Pete too, I figured out early on the exteriors they were using did not fit the interior at all.
Brady legend has it that Sherwood Schwartz chose that house because it was "typically" suburban.
