Does anyone know where the actual "Golden Girl" house is? I'm fairly sure that it isn't in Miami, or perhaps it is. I have been searching and searching. Does anyone have any pics of the actual house recently?

I believe the original house is situated in an area of California called Pacific Palisades. They used this house for the outside shots from Seasons 1-3. They then purpose-built the facade of the house at Disney in Orlando, Florida. From 1988 onwards, the daytime shots of the house were of the new one. The night scenes remained shots of the original house. Up until 2003, it was possible to go and see the facade at Disney (which I did in the 1990s), but since then it has sadly been torn down.

Actually the house has always been on the backlot of MGM Studios in Orlando Fl and the studio where the show taped was located at Sunset and Gower in Hollywood CA

No, for the first 3 seasons, a real house was used. It was (maybe still is) situated in Pacific Palisades in California. Only from Season 4 (1988) did they start to use the model at MGM.

The studios were situated in California, too - Sunset-Gower was the original location for the show, but it moved to Ren-Mar a couple of seasons in.
