Alec Baldwin voice] "Royal Tenenbaum bought the house on Archer Avenue in the winter of his 35th year," but you can rent it right now.
The iconic home from Wes Anderson's 2001 film is on the market, fully furnished, for $20,000/month. BYO-Scalamandre wallpaper, because it doesn't appear anywhere in the listing photos.
When
The Royal Tenenbaums was released, the director and Citi Bicycle enthusiast told the Observer, "We spent months searching for different houses. It needed to be a New York house that wasn’t stereotypical, and where you’d have a real strong sense of family history." Before the script was even done, he found the Archer Avenue house, which in reality is at 339 Convent Avenue (at 144th Street) in Harlem's Hamilton Heights. "[It] kinda has a storybook quality to it," Anderson said.
