Do you remember the house from Father of the Bride? The really adorable one that Martin Short turned into a wedding reception venue? The one where we watched Steve Martin played basketball in front of and then had to deal with his daughter growing up and moving on with her life?
Well now it can be yours. For a cool $1,998,000.
Yes, friends, the iconic house from the movie is up for sale according to real estate site Zillow.com. And the Alhambra, Calif. house is no joke. Here's the description:
"This elegant 1925 Colonial on a 18,110 SQ.FT. lot features 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, a grand entry, elegant living room, large formal dining room, and a walnut paneled den/study.

Kimberley Williams-Paisley, who played the daughter of the father of the bride, gave the sale her stamp of approval on Twitter.
So if you really want, you can play basketball where Martin did. And get some nice hardwood floors. What a perfect Father's Day gift...
