Hot Property: 'Full House' for a lesser price

LOS ANGELES _ There are plenty of "Full House" fans out there, but apparently none with pockets deep enough to buy the show's famous home.

The San Francisco Victorian _ used to portray the Tanner family's residence in the famous sitcom _ listed last year for $5.999 million. With no takers, it's back on the market for half a million less.

The storied residence is owned by the show's creator, Jeff Franklin, who bought it in 2016 for $4 million. Franklin has since renovated the property, updating the living spaces with modern style and high-end finishes. The bright red front door seen on the sitcom has been painted a darker hue.

Built in 1883 by Charles Hinkel Lewis, the home spans three stories in the Lower Pacific Heights neighborhood. Inside, there's a living room with a marble fireplace, a lounge with built-ins, a den with a wet bar and a sunny dining area. In the kitchen, which sports an island, royal blue cabinetry provides visual contrast against subway tile and skylights.

Upstairs, the master suite features a walk-in closet and stylish bathroom. It's one of four bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms in about 3,700 square feet.

Outside, an English garden with manicured hedges holds a dining area.

In addition to creating "Full House" and its recent sequel, "Fuller House," Franklin's other shows include "Hangin' With Mr. Cooper" and "Malcolm & Eddie." On the film side, he directed "Love Stinks" and produced "Stuart Little."
