Video of the Day: Tour The Real-Life ‘Up’ House

Video of the Day: Tour The Real-Life ‘Up’ House

Last year, the Hamblin family purchased a faithful reproduction of the iconic Up house. The unique exterior of the home was recently in danger of being repainted, as the neighborhood was considering whether it violated the “rules” put forth by the community. Thankfully, it was decided that the house’s paint colors would be kept as-is. What about the interior? While we have seen images and brief tours of the inside of the house, we have been unable to get an in-depth look. To check out other houses that have brilliant interiors you can take a look at house land packages by Simonds.com.au.

The Hamblins are aiming to change that, as they have posted a video providing an extensive tour of the rooms and how they have added to the space. Watch it after the break!

‘Up’ House In Utah Does Not Have To Be Repainted, Gets To Keep Its Colors

About one year ago, Bangerter Homes built a faithful replica of the Up house in Utah, bringing an influx of visitors to the small town of Herriman. Already searching for a new home and being big fans of Disney and Pixar films, two of those visitors, Lynette and Clint Hamblin, decided to buy the house. However, we reported back in December that that the house was in danger of losing its colorful charm due to the homeowners association’s rules on the exterior appearance of homes in the neighborhood. The decision has finally been made and the iconic home will stay as-is. Read what the Hamblins told us about the ruling after the break!

Video: Take A Tour Inside The Up House In Utah

Herriman, Utah has been in the spotlight the past month, as Bangerter Homes recently built a great replica of the house from Up in the city. People have descended upon Utah from all over the country to lay eyes upon the home. What places this piece of architecture above all those that have been built previously is the fact that the inside of the home looks just like what we saw in the film as well. Down to the smallest details, such as the handrail and the objects upon the fireplace, this is likely the closest recreation of the Up house we will ever see in the real world. The Salt Lake Tribune, which ignited this story when it first covered it last month, now has a video tour through the inside of the amazing house. Take a peek here! [Read more…]

‘Up’ House Crowned Winner in Peeps Diorama Contest

The house in Up was a major part of the storyline in the film, as it had a great effect on the life of main character Carl Fredricksen. It also clearly had quite a lasting effect on those who watched the film, as many creative models of the house have been built since the film arrived in theaters. That tradition continues today, as the Washington Post named a replica of the Up house the winner in their fourth annual Peeps Diorama Contest. [Read more…]
