The property was made famous after it featured on the much-loved BBC sitcom Gavin and Stacey and now it could be yours.
Fans of the hit comedy can grab a slice of telly history by buying the two-bedroom home which belonged to flirtatious neighbour Doris.
The mid-terrace property in Trinity Street in seaside town Barry, South Wales, is on the market for £220,000 and is said to be 'brimming with warmth, personality and seaside charm'.
Doris O'Neill, known for her hilarious 'Where's the salad?' sketch was played by actress Margaret John who died in 2011.
But prospective buyers will have to put up with strangers ogling their new home as it forms part of popular sightseeing tours of the filming locations.
Set on a steep hill of terraces it is located next to the house that Stacey and her mum Gwen (played by Joanna Page and Melanie Walters) live in.
Opposite is the house where Uncle Bryn (Rob Brydon) lived in the much-loved show.
An advert for Doris' house says: 'Whether you enjoy al fresco dining, gardening, or simply basking in the sun, this outdoor space offers endless possibilities for creating your own outdoor oasis in the heart of Barry.'
The property, in the 'sought after west end of Barry', comes with a modern fitted kitchen, open plan lounge, two double bedrooms, modern bathroom and 'generous' garden.
If that property doesn't take your fancy, then another home that has featured in a number of TV shows might take your interest, if you have £2million to spare.

If you have deep pockets then you could be the proud owner of a Scottish island which comes with its own castle.
Meanwhile, a five-bedroom detached house with a very unique bathroom has hit the market for £700,000.
Elsewhere, Britain's "darkest ever house" with all-black walls, toilet and furniture has gone up for sale for a bargain sum.

Coronation Street star confirms closure of restaurant after 13 years in heartbreaking post leaving fans devastated
The prestigious venue had won countless awards before its sudden closure 'HEAVY HEART' Coronation Street star confirms closure of restaurant after 13 years in heartbreaking post leaving fans devastated Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) CORONATION Street star Jennie McAlpine has confirmed the closure of her restaurant after 13 years. In an emotional post on social media, the actress - who has portrayed Fiz Brown on the soap since 2001 - announced the shutters had come down for the final time on her Manchester restaurant Annies. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Jennie is best known for portraying Fiz Brown on Coronation Street since 2001 Credit: ITV The popular gastropub and bar, located in the heart of the city, was co-owned by Jennie and her partner Chris Farr. It was also held in incredibly high regard, ranking within the top five restaurants in Manchester on Tripadvisor just before its closure. Sadly, the restaurant's loyal fans, who have been piling in since 2012, have now been left heartbroken by its sudden shutting. Jennie and Chris' post read: "It's with a heavy heart that we've had to close the doors to Annies this week. "We want to thank the amazing people, staff and customers who've been part of our Annies journey. "Our whole team will miss all of our wonderful customers, who we have come to call friends." The star also thanked loyal patrons for their support over the past 13 years, sending them their "love and thanks". Annies served a range of dishes to satisfy pallets across Manchester, including steaks, burgers, pies, salads, and fish. A traditional hotpot featuring lamb and crispy potatoes also featured on the extensive menu. Not only had Annies found itself high on Tripadvisor's Manchester recommendations but it was also named among "the best of the best" in the country in September. Beloved steakhouse chain to shut ALL its restaurants after collapsing into administration with no explanation When the review site unveiled its Traveller's Choice Awards Best of the Best Restaurants - which recognised diners' favourite spots for 2024, Annie's was named in the top ten. It had also previously been named winner of the People's Choice award for best tea room at the Manchester Tourism Awards for its range of afternoon teas. Neither Jennie nor Chris have confirmed the reason behind the restaurant's closure, but fans have been quick to share their love for the famed restaurant. One heartbroken diner wrote: "This is very sad news. "One our favourite places we've been too when us girls meet up - we've had afternoon tea, Sunday lunch, theatre and breakfast. "You fit in nicely what ever time of our occasion." Italian restaurant chain closes ALL of its sites immediately after facing 'many challenges' AN Italian restaurant chain has closed down all of its sites after nearly six years on the high street. Officina 00 was a popular pasta joint with three locations across Covent Garden, Fitzrovia and Old Street. It charged around £15 for posh pasta dishes such as curly pappardelle and killer bucatini. Owner Elia Sebregondi took to Instagram last week to share news that the business was no more. He said: "It is with a heavy heart that I share the news that Officina 00 restaurants have now permanently closed. "I have done everything in my power to overcome the many challenges faced in the last few months, but despite all efforts I have been forced to close down." The news left diners heartbroken with many describing it as a "big loss". Another upset local said: "I can't believe this. I was just speaking to someone about how great your pasta was earlier this week." A third said: "This is devastating news. We loved visiting your restaurants." And a fourth person said: "The best pasta in London.. how sad for all." Another wished Jennie and Chris well in their next endeavours, adding they were "absolutely gutted" by the news of the closure. They wrote: "It was the only place I felt comfortable in. "The food was delicious, the decor amazing, and the whole place just had a wonderful feeling about it. "I will miss Annie's terribly. It was also such a little busy place." This comes just days after a beloved pan-Asian restaurant chain - known for its trendy dining and cocktails - announced it would be closing all of its locations. PEACH, a restaurant group based in East Hertfordshire, confirmed the immediate closure of both its sites after five years of serving customers. Founders Dan Knowles and Leigh Keates launched the business in 2020, with branches in Bishop's Stortford and Hertford. The pair gave no reason for the closure but said in a statement: "With great sadness, we want to let you know that both restaurants have now closed. "This was not an easy decision and certainly not one we took lightly. "We are incredibly grateful for the support, kindness and loyalty you've shown us over the years - it has meant everything."

PDC threatened with legal action amid complaints over the way darts is broadcast
Legal beaks are now keeping their eyes on a similar challenge by another sport DART OF WAR PDC threatened with legal action amid complaints over the way darts is broadcast Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE PDC have been threatened with legal action amid complaints over the way darts is broadcast. The controversy was sparked by last weekend's World Seniors Darts Champion of Champions event. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The PDC has been threatened with legal action following Raymond van Barneveld's latest darts appearance Credit: Getty Ross Montgomery won the tournament with an 8-5 win against Richie Howson in the final. However, the presence of Raymond van Barneveld caused a ripple in the darting world. The Dutch superstar was a shock addition to the line-up before crashing out in the semis to Montgomery. That's because the tournament is part of the World Seniors Darts Tour (WSDT), with Van Gerwen holding an active PDC Tour card. READ MORE IN FOOTBALL HIT THE ROOF I worked 12-hour days as a roofer before darts stardom... I wouldn't burn out PDC stars are normally only allowed to feature in competitions sanctioned by their own group. And any non-PDC tournaments that players do feature in are non-televised. But the Champion of Champions competition was shown live on PlutoTV, leading to confusion over Van Barneveld's participation. And now, WSDT promoter Jason Francis claims the PDC could be threatened with legal action over its 'monopoly' on broadcasting live darts. BEST FREE BETS AND BETTING SIGN UP OFFERS He believes his group should be able to show off the game's top stars if they want to play in WSDT tournaments. And with a legal challenge currently in the works over how snooker is televised, a similar one could be coming for the world of darts. Fuming fans complain after Van Barneveld's World Darts Championship walk-on is 'massacred' in embarrassing blunder Francis told the Weekly Dartscast: "The PDC have a monopoly on broadcast darts. And if Raymond van Barneveld wants to be a professional player, he has to sign a PDC contract. 'There's no negotiation, there's no option, and because of their dominant position, what other choice do players have?" "If you have more than one person competing for the services of a professional sportsman, who wins? Ultimately, the player wins and the darts fan wins. "Why is that? Because as promoters, we have to put enough prize money up to attract Raynond van Barneveld, Luke Littler or Luke Humphries to our event. 'If someone else is doing that, we then have to fight over price. Then, the ticket prices come down." "It's no different to when supermarkets compete over a loaf of bread. Competition is good because the customer gets the best deal. But there is no competition in darts. 'The PDC have a complete monopoly on darts, and it is something that, in snooker, we are legally challenging. If that is successful, I would expect that to follow on in darts as well."
