Jesse Pinkman's House From Breaking Bad Is Now On Sale For A Cool 1.6 Million Dollars
Today- For the right price, “Breaking Bad” fanatics who want to live like Jesse Pinkman (preferably as a law-abiding citizen) can do so in the real-life house that’s just gone up for sale. “Meth lab not included,” reads part of Coldwell Banker’s press release, first issued as an exclusive to TODAY.com. Susan C. Feil and her daughter Alicia Feil Peterson, associate brokers for Coldwell Banker, revealed that the two-story Spanish Colonial revival house went on the market Tuesday, when it was listed for $1.6 million. “The owners contacted us because we have a reputation for doing real estate in Albuquerque and marking unique properties,” Alicia told TODAY.com. “They thought that this was definitely going to be a unique opportunity that would appeal to a variety of buyers, not just in our market, but globally.” Built by noted developer Leon Watson in the tony Albuquerque Country Club neighborhood, the two-story, 3,500-square-foot house features four bedrooms, two porches, original wood floors and stone-framed doors, windows, chimneys and fireplaces. It’s believed to be the first major “Breaking Bad” residential property to go on the market since the series wrapped on Sept. 29, 2013.
Boom! There ya go. Wanna own a piece of TV history? Now’s your chance. You can own Jesse Pinkman’s house from Breaking Bad for the low price of 1.6 million dollars. What a steal! I’ll take two. Actually, I don’t think I’d want that house. For a couple reasons. Remember that house? Of course you do. Some crazy shit went down in that house and that’s precisely one of the reasons I wouldn’t want it. I’d rather not own a house that I saw a bunch of drug addicts hole up in and turn into their own personal meth den. Yeah I know it was fake but I don’t think I have the brain capacity to look past that. Nightmares on nightmares about drug fiends crawling into my bedroom and murdering me while I sleep. Also, I feel like the novelty of being able to say “I own Jesse Pinkman’s house from Breaking Bad” at dinner parties would wear off after one dinner party. Maybe two. $1.6 million seems like too much money to simply have a good story. Not to mention, you buy a house like that and it’s a fucking circus. I’ve read the stories about what goes on at Walter White’s house nowadays. People just roll up on you and knock on your door every hour of the day. It becomes a tourist attraction. Buy the house next door? No problem. Nobody knows or cares who you are and you don’t have diehard fans of a show about meth at your door all the time. Oh and reason #1 would be I don’t have 1.6 million dollars. Pass (but still cool).
