John Stamos Defends His "Design Taste" After Mega Mansion Goes Up For Sale
Imagine building your dream home, eventually selling the property, and then seeing it back on the market with a makeover far from your initial design vision. That’s exactly what John Stamos recently experienced when his former Southern California home hit the market for a smidge under $13 million. The Full House star had the Calabasas home custom-built in the early 1990s, and he wants everyone to know the home’s currently bold, marble-heavy look isn’t of his own doing.Related StoriesWhile the home is listed online, the Instagram account IG Mansions also posted fresh photos of the home, resulting in an Uncle Jesse-style "Have mercy!" from many commenters. Naturally, people had thoughts on the home's bold design scheme—including Stamos himself, who popped into the comments to set the record straight. “In my defence, I sold that house many years ago and it has been ‘redecorated,’” he wrote.View full post on InstagramThe actor-musician owned the home for nearly a decade until 2001, when he sold it for about $2.2 million, per records reviewed by Robb Report. He worked with architect Les Makowski to design the Mediterranean-style structure and built it on a vacant 6-acre lot in Calabasas, which he paid $430,000 for. Today, the home is clad in dramatically veined black-and-white marble, including on the floors, walls, and countertops throughout. Even the two-way fireplace in the formal living area (which once featured cherub motifs) got the marble treatment. The glossy look clashes with the seven-bedroom, seven-bathroom home’s exterior, and many people were grateful for Stamos’s clarification. “Whew! Glad to hear that because it’s REALLY gaudy,” one designer wrote. Another person commented, “Thank you for chiming in because the first thing I said was this doesn’t look like a good representation of him, and to know that my intuition was spot on from the horse’s mouth is reassuring.”“The fact that @johnstamos is actually here to make the clarification! 😂 I was about to have some opinionated words til I saw the comment,” someone else wrote.In describing the home, commenters called the place “a giant box of tacky,” a “boring collection of white and black,” and that it “looks like it smells like cigs.” Of course, there were a lot of haaaaave mercy comments. Full House fans also called the home Uncle Jesse coded. (Although, we’re not quite sure we see it!) While folks were appalled by the amount of marble used, they also made a few other opinionated observations. “That's the ugliest interior I've ever seen,” one commenter wrote. “Birdcage chairs? What?”Another pointed out, “How are you going to put a slippery marble staircase with a GLASS railing? That’s screaming slip, fall, and die.”That said, the home does have some redeemable qualities, according to the court of public opinion. “That house looks like it was designed by someone who has no business designing houses,” one person wrote. “It’s big. I’ll give it that.”Follow House Beautiful on Instagram and TikTok.
