Jeff Franklin, the creator of the beloved sitcom “Full House,” has relisted his sprawling Beverly Hills estate for the eighth time in four years.
The 21,000-square-foot property has returned to the market at $44.99 million, representing a $5 million reduction from its most recent asking price.
Franklin originally listed the property in January 2022 for $85 million, and it has bounced on and off the market through multiple price cuts since then.
The home was most recently offered as a luxury rental at $247,500 per month before being listed for sale again at $49.95 million in October 2025.
What no listing has prominently disclosed is the property’s dark historical connection to the Charles Manson murders that took place on the same ground.
In the early hours of August 9, 1969, Manson Family cult members entered the home on Cielo Drive and stabbed actress Sharon Tate and four others to death.
Tate, who was pregnant at the time, was killed along with celebrity hairstylist Jay Sebring, coffee heiress Abigail Folger, and writer Wojciech Frykowski.
The original structure, which had been owned by music producer Terry Melcher, was eventually demolished, and Franklin purchased the land for $6 million.
Franklin then built Villa Andalusia, a nine-bedroom, 18-bathroom Andalusian palace designed by architect Richard Landry, completed in 2006.
Landry, known for designing homes for Dr. Dre and the Kardashians, created the estate across more than three-and-a-half private acres at the end of Cielo Drive in Benedict Canyon.
The property’s amenities include a 75-yard pool with waterfalls, a lazy river, a 35-foot water slide leading to a hidden grotto, a movie theater, a hair salon, and a garage accommodating 16 cars.
A large aquarium divides the sitting room and dining room, with the fish included as part of the sale, adding another layer of extravagance to the already remarkable estate.
Franklin told The Wall Street Journal in 2022 that Manson’s connection to the property was “irrelevant” and “ancient history,” adding that it had “absolutely no impact on my life whatsoever.”
He noted at the time that he was selling only because he had relocated to Miami and no longer needed the residence he had called home for nearly two decades.
Franklin created “Full House” in 1987 and served as showrunner until 1992, later returning in 2016 to develop the Netflix sequel series “Fuller House.”
He previously owned the San Francisco property used for exterior shots of the Tanner family home on the show, which he remodeled and sold in 2020.
Beyond the Cielo Drive murders, Manson’s followers also killed supermarket executive Leno LaBianca and his wife Rosemary during the same killing spree, with reports indicating the Manson Family killed nine people in total.
