Malcolm in the Middle fans were left shocked after discovering the current appearance of the sitcom’s iconic house. The American comedy series, which aired from 2000 to 2006, followed the lives of a dysfunctional lower-middle-class family. The show starred Frankie Muniz as Malcolm, a child prodigy, with Jane Kaczmarek and Bryan Cranston portraying his parents Lois and Hal. Christopher Kennedy Masterson, Justin Berfield, and Erik Per Sullivan played his brothers Francis, Reese, and Dewey. Throughout its run, the series received numerous Emmy Award nominations and was recognized at the Golden Globes. However, nearly 20 years after its conclusion, fans were devastated to see what had become of the family’s home.
Located on 12334 Maple Boulevard in the show, the house was situated back from the road and partially hidden by a tree in the yard. According to an Entertainment Weekly article from 2000, the owner earned a substantial income of $3,000 to $4,000 per day whenever filming took place on the property. However, in 2001, the house was put up for sale. Despite continuing to serve as a filming location throughout the series, recent images reveal a dramatic transformation.
The real address of the house is 12334 Cantura Street in Studio City, California. Fans still visit the location to take pictures, but they are in for a surprise. The house is now completely unrecognizable, having been rebuilt. Instead of the humble bungalow depicted in the show, it has been replaced by a two-story modernist-style home made predominantly of concrete. The front garden features a manicured lawn, enclosed by a small wall and fence.
Upon seeing the new design, Malcolm in the Middle fans expressed their disappointment. One Reddit user commented, “Transformed from a classic to an abomination. Such a shame.” Another person shared their outrage, saying, “I’m disgusted how dare they get rid of a Malcolm in the Middle house?! Especially replacing it with that ugly thing, how dare they!” Many fans felt that the new house did not pay homage to the show and lamented the loss of a potential landmark.
