The iconic home of Walter White from “Breaking Bad” can now be yours for just $4 million.
Fans from all over the world have for years traveled to Albuquerque, New Mexico to visit the home of the iconic AMC character.
Homeowner Joanna Quintana, who grew up in the house, said her family decided to finally sell it after 52 years in part because of the constant presence of fans.
“We’re going to walk away with just our memories,” she told KOB4, a local NBC affiliate. “It’s time to move on. We’re done. There’s no reason to fight anymore.”
While the home is listed for $4 million, Zillow estimates the modest three-bedroom, one-bath house is worth closer to $350,000, though that does not take into account the fan appeal, which could either raise or lower its value depending on the buyer.
Quinatana’s family said they hope the $4 million price tag will attract a buyer who wants to use the space as something that fans could enjoy.
“I hope they make it what the fans want. They want a BnB, they want a museum, they want access to it. Go for it,” Quintana told KOB4.
Potential buyers can view the home’s 1,910-square-foot layout on the listing’s website, which describes the house as an “unparalleled opportunity to own a piece of television history.”
“From the explosive opening to pivotal scenes that captured audiences around the world, this Albuquerque home became more than a house — it became a character in its own right,” the site says. “Now, you have the chance to own this piece of television history.”

For the Quintana family, the fans have mostly been a headache since the show became a worldwide sensation after its release in 2008. Devotees often show up at the residence to take photos — or worse.
“Breaking Bad” and “Better Call Saul” creator Vince Gilligan called for fans to stop visiting the house in a 2015 episode of the “Better Call Saul Insider Podcast.” Gilligan made the request after several fans tried to throw pizza onto the roof to recreate a famous scene.
“There is nothing original or funny or cool about throwing a pizza on this lady’s roof,” Gilligan said on the podcast. “It’s been done before — you’re not the first.”
“And if I catch you doing it, I will hunt you down,” he added.
Luke Mones, a comedian who visited the home in 2018, described in a documentary how his visit turned hostile. Mones said one of the owners was sitting outside in a lawn chair, yelling at him when he approached.
“‘The show ended eight years ago. Get a life!'” he recalled the owner yelling at him.
