The famous Southern California house Will Smith inhabited on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air is hitting the market for the first time in nearly a half-century.
The Georgian Colonial home, which is actually located in Brentwood, California, will be placed on the market for the first time since 1978, when it sold for $732,000, an insider told People (https://people.com/fresh-prince-of-bel-air-house-hits-the-market-for-the-first-time-in-48-years-11886526).
It has been listed at just under $30 million, according to TMZ (https://www.tmz.com/2026/01/13/fresh-prince-of-bel-air-house-to-hit-the-market/).
Smith starred on 148 episodes of the show amid its six-year run from 1990–1996. The cast also included Alfonso Ribeiro, Tatyana Ali, Karyn Parsons, Joseph Marcell, and the late James Avery.
The home, which was built in 1937, was used for multiple exterior shots during the six-season run of the popular series.
The five-bedroom, five-bathroom home spans more than 6,000 square feet. The asking price was not immediately clear, according to the outlet.
Smith and the cast did not film the entirety of the series on the premises - but rather on a soundstage - but the house remains an iconic piece of television history, as the NBC show was a pivotal step in launching Smith's A-list career.
