MANY contestants have brought their quests for love to the famed Bachelor Nation mansion.
While the franchise prepares to welcome Jenn Tran as the newest Bachelorette, the show is not expected to film her season in its usual stunning setting.
Who owns The Bachelor Mansion?
The Bachelor property is owned by contractor Marshall Haraden.
The President of the Marshall Group and his family are believed to live in the mansion whenever production for The Bachelor isn’t filming.
Haraden told Us Weekly that The Bachelor team first contacted him after scouting the home sometime in 2001.
“[The show's location scout told me,] 'I might use it — I might not.’ Two years later, [once construction was complete], he sent an agent around.”
He explained the program’s production schedule: “They’re here 42 days, twice a year.
“Everything leaves — everything that’s not tied down, that’s not part of the home.
“Curtains, TVs, pots and pans, clothes – everything in one day goes out and then they take two weeks to put it together the way they want it, and they shoot for X amount of days, and then they spend two weeks to put it back.
“It's definitely a hassle. There's a period where we moved out for six years because it was tough on our kids.”
The homeowner added: “The kids start school right when they start filming and it would disrupt them going back to school.
“Then [for The Bachelorette], it's right when they're getting ready to go back to the next [semester].”
For the first time in The Bachelor Nation’s history, the show will not film in the iconic home for the 21st season of The Bachelorette.
Instead, the show will be filmed at the Hummingbird Nest Ranch in Santa Susana, California.
Where is The Bachelor Mansion?
The beautiful Villa de la Vina home sits on a stunning 10-acre lot in Agoura Hills, California.
It is situated within the Santa Monica Mountains of Malibu.
The mansion is named Villa de la Vina and was built in 2004.
In 2010, the property was sold for an estimated $1.7 million.
It is now believed to be worth over $7.4 million, according to online property websites.
How can I stay at The Bachelor Mansion?
Big fans of the show who want a romantic getaway can rent the mansion via Airbnb for over $30,000 a night.
According to the mansion’s Instagram page, it became available for rent at the end of 2020.
The property features seven bedrooms and eight baths and can sleep 13 guests.
The Mediterranean-style home boasts a luxurious pool, two jacuzzis, a pool table, handcrafted furniture, and enormous outdoor space.
According to Airbnb, staying at the mansion has its perks.
