Fresh Prince of Bel Air house is going on sale for eye watering amount and the makeover inside has left fans stunned

A small price to pay for nostalgia

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air was a hugely popular show in the 1990s, with many TV fans tuning in to see Will Smith living it up after swapping West Philadelphia for LA.

Now this is a story all about how much the mansion that housed the Banks family, including the Oscar winner, Alfonso Ribeiro and Tatyana Ali, is going to set back one potential buyer in 2026.

Smith's life might have been flipped upside down ever since that infamous Oscars slap of Chris Rock, and it seems as if the inside of the six-bedroom property has as well, with fans left stunned by how it looks now.

I'd like to take a minute, so sit right there, as I tell you how much it costs to buy the 10,000 square foot mansion in Bel-Air.

Even the coolest of cats might not be able to sip orange juice from the bourgeois pad, which was a staple of the programme, which ran for six seasons, before the Banks family finally moved out to leave Will to get ready for college.

Smith, who reunited with the younger version of himself and his cousin Carlton in the more serious 2022 reboot, showed off the inside of the mansion on his YouTube channel, as he put it on Air BnB to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the show.

Fans were left stunned by the interior at the time, writing: "This is so weird. It's like the house, but it's not the house."

Another said: "Too bad it doesn’t look like the actual set, but it’s still cool."

If a weekend stay wasn't enough for you, and you want to purchase it outright, you'll likely have to spend around $30 million (£22 million) to have it officially under your name.

Considering that's the average price of a one-bed flat in London, and a full £13 million less than Liverpool spent on Andy Carroll 15 years ago, it might not be that bad.

Hopefully, you followed the Bitcoin guys' advice all those years ago, and you have that sort of money to hand because who wouldn't want to live in such an iconic TV household, which is surely only matched by the castle in Downton Abbey when it comes to grandeur.

But if you're looking for nostalgia with your purchase, then you might well be disappointed, as the house comes with six bedrooms, seven bathrooms (who needs that many?) and sits on a 38,510 square foot plot of land in the prestigious Los Angeles neighbourhood of Brentwood.

You're more than likely to see your fair share of celebrities in the area as well, but if you fancy putting in a cheeky bid, you might have to wait until the end of the month, when TMZ suggest it will officially hit the market.
