While living there, Franklin — who wasfired as producer ofFuller Housein 2018after reported complaints about his behavior in the writers' room and on set — restored one aspect of the 1883-build to its formerFull Houseglory, painting the previously seafoam-green door back to the red that’s seen on the show. “It will be a lot more fun for the fans because now the house will look like the Tanners really live there,” he said, adding, “It’s a gift to the fans but it’s also fun for me to own it.”
The Agency
According to theSan Francisco Chronicle, he had also planned to remodel the home’s interior and was issued a building permit to do so in 2017, but neighbors appealed it because the Planning Department didn’t notify them in advance, as required.
His neighbors said that Franklin was using the home to garner attention forFuller House, which brought hundreds of tourists to the neighborhood each day, theChroniclereports. At a discretionary review hearing in December 2017, neighbors claimed that Franklin was planning to overhaul the interior of the home to make it look like the Tanner family house (the actual show was filmed on a sound stage), and they were afraid that would draw more fans to the premises.
The San Francisco Board of Appeals revoked his building permit because of the lack of notification.
According to the listing, the home’s interior was recently renovated, but listing photos show the elegantly appointed rooms don’t mirror the spaces seen on the show.
Initially, Franklin had plans to rent the space out to a San Francisco fan. “It’s a shame to let it sit empty,” he said of the estate. “I will be renting it out, but I’m not sure yet what, where, when or how. At some point soon I will figure that out.”

“The home will always have tremendous emotional significance to me,” Franklin told theChroniclein a statement announcing he would sell it. “It is a symbol of the shows I love, and the second family I have formed with the casts ofFullandFuller House. Now thatFuller Houseis ending, I will be putting the home back on the market. I hope to find a buyer who wants to make it a full house once again.”
Franklin continued: “I wish the cast, my second family for over 30 years, continued success. I’m so proud of all we accomplished together, and beyond grateful to our loyal fans. Adios Tanneritos!”
