BB House location/schematics

[Hbomb]

Hi everyone! I decided to make it my personal project to compile some inside stuff on the BB house.

For starters, the below is a satellite image of the BB house.
4024 Radford Ave
Studio City, Ca 91604

If anyone decides to look it up. The house if just to right of the arrow running parallel to the concrete trench.


To see an overview of the sound stages on the CBS studio center lot, click the link below. BB is filmed on stage 18. Drag your cursor over the buildings and the stage # will highlight. When you find stage 18, you can click on it to see the schematics of the house.

For just the schematics of the house, use the link below.

And although this artical is from last years big brother, it still holds some intresting information about what it's like behind the walls.

Thanx. I know if you guys are anything like me, you just need to know everything. And I love the inside info stuff.

And you can thank dingo for the pic. I don't have the software to snap pix or vids, so dingo helped me with that one!

Also, I think there has been some modifications to the layout of the house. Starting from the left side of the left half of the spec, you can see one of the bedrooms. Next is the hallway that they walk out to the stage to meet Julie, then it's the diary room with the hallway. It's the room underneath the bedroom that has me a bit confused bc don't they have two bedrooms off of that main room? I think they must have divided the main room in half to create the 2nd bedroom. And the sliding glass doors that lead to the yard is currently closer to the spiral staircase than is shown on the specs.

I think this is the bedroom layout & current sleeping arrangements (not counting whoever's in HOH) but I'm not 100% sure how that back bedroom works either.. it used to be the "hidden" gold room for BB6 and the red room for BB7, and I think it was the round beds room last year? It was apparently split into two smaller rooms this year

Julie's boudoir could be split up any number of ways.. I'm going to ass-ume the area(s) above it are control room and where the feedmasters live

yes, thanks for posting all this Hbomb! it's interesting and trickier to correlate to what we see on the feeds than it seems it would be

Oh, I totally forgot about the pantry. That's why I got soooo confused. That makes sense. Thanx for the labels.

It's fun to "spec"ulate :p
