It was revealed in the 2019 Christmas Special that Doris had passed away on Christmas Eve and left her house to Gavin and Stacey in her will.
Fans of the show were quick to recognise the home when the estate agents shared a video of the listing on social media.
One joked: "I'm so pleased to see Stacey got her new kitchen in the end".
Another added: "So you're telling me all three of Gavin and Stacey's kids shared a room?"
"If I didn't have a year left on my house contract, I'd buy this in a heartbeat," a third said.
One fan even suggested turning it into an Airbnb for fans to come and stay in.
The BBC sitcom, created by Ruth Jones and James Cordon, first aired in 2007 and tells the story of two families from Billericay in Essex and Barry in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales.
The show was primarily filmed in South Wales, in and around Barry and Dinas Powys.
Gwen and Stacey's neighbour Doris and uncle Bryn all lived in what is Trinity Street, in Barry.

Lisa Nandy demands ‘accountability at highest levels' after Bob Vylan broadcast
Lisa Nandy demands 'accountability at highest levels' after Bob Vylan broadcast Lisa Nandy told the Commons she has heard from the BBC but was "not satisfied with the response". Lisa Nandy, makes a statement in the House of Commons (Image: House of Commons/UK Parliament/PA Wire/PA Images ) Ministers expect "accountability at the highest levels" for the BBC's decision to screen Bob Vylan at Glastonbury, the Culture Secretary has said. Lisa Nandy told the Commons she has heard from the BBC but was "not satisfied with the response". Punk duo Bob Vylan led chants of "death, death to the IDF (Israel Defence Forces)" during their Worthy Farm set last weekend, and face an investigation by Avon and Somerset Police. London's Metropolitan Police is also investigating the two Bobs – who perform using the aliases Bobby Vylan and Bobbie Vylan – for allegedly making similar comments at Alexandra Palace in May. Conservative shadow culture secretary Stuart Andrew told the Commons: "Given the BBC are seemingly able to pull live broadcasts when things go wrong at football matches, for example, it's extraordinary that this didn't happen on this occasion. "Can the Secretary of State update the House on the discussions she's had with the BBC, and why the same thing didn't happen on this occasion? Article continues below "What due diligence was carried out by them about the acts that were performing? "And given as she's said we're still waiting for a response to the previous Hamas documentary, is she satisfied with those conversations she's had and the urgency that the organisation are taking?" Ms Nandy replied: "No, the answer is that I'm not satisfied with the response that I've had." The Culture Secretary previously made a ministerial statement in the Commons on Monday, when she said "it should have been foreseeable that there would be problems with broadcasts". She told MPs then that she wanted "rapid action to make sure this cannot happen again". In Thursday's update, Ms Nandy told MPs: "I have received a reply to the very many questions that were raised by colleagues on all sides. "I'm not satisfied with that, and I have gone back to the BBC leadership to ask for further information, in particular, as he mentioned, about the failure to pull the live feed, about the due diligence that was done prior to deciding to screen this act, and also about the level of senior oversight that took place in the BBC during the Glastonbury weekend. "I think the BBC leadership will hear and have heard the strength of feeling in this House about this, and I expect further answers to be forthcoming imminently." The corporation removed the documentary Gaza: How To Survive A Warzone from its online iPlayer platform in February after it emerged its 13-year-old narrator was the son of a Hamas official. In a follow-up question, Mr Andrew said: "I'm as disappointed as she is that they haven't been able to come back with even basic facts. "There were hundreds of BBC staff there and not being able to identify who ultimately had the final decision on whether to broadcast or not is not acceptable, and I think the chairman (Samir Shah) needs to inform her as a matter of urgency who that was and what action they are going to take. "While I absolutely understand the independence of the BBC, just as artists can't hide behind artistic expression for vile commentary, neither can the BBC hide behind independence for accountability, and I hope she knows she has the full support of this side of the House as she pushes them for clarity." Ms Nandy said she was "grateful" that Mr Andrew had made "the very important distinction between independence and accountability". She continued: "Given the seriousness of what happened – and particularly we heard in the House and I was able to bring to the House the absolute shocking stories of the impact that this has had on the Jewish community in this country – given the seriousness of this, I would expect there to be accountability at the highest levels." The BBC board met on Tuesday "to hear what actions will now be taken" in response to the broadcast, according to Mr Shah. "I am satisfied that the executive is initiating a process to ensure proper accountability for those found to be responsible for the failings in this incident," he said. Bob Vylan's performance was not made available to watch or listen to again on the iPlayer or Sounds platforms, but the live feed remained up until it was amended shortly after 8pm. "Any music performances deemed high risk will now not be broadcast live or streamed live," according to a BBC statement. Article continues below "Editorial policy support will always be available on site at major music festivals and events, to improve compliance processes and the speed of available advice, and we will provide more detailed, practical guidance on the threshold for withdrawing a live stream."

Edinburgh Fringe 2025 Hot Tickets: Here are 31 stars of Live at the Apollo with shows you can see this August
August is fast approaching which means it's time to scour the Edinbugh Festival Fringe programme for the best shows to see. The physical programme was launched earlier this month, with 3,352 show across 265 venues, and some are already selling out. It can be a fairly daunting prospect to narrow those down when organising your Fringe . It's always nice to take a chance on something, hoping to be the first to see a hot new act - but sometimes it's just nice to see somebody familiar from television . Since 2004 the BBC's Live at the Apollo has been one of the most popular small screen showcases for standup comedians - acting as a rite of passage for those on their way to fame and fortune. Those appearing on early episodes included the likes of Jo Brand, Lee Mack, Jimmy Carr, Jason Manford, Russell Howard, Sean Lock and Dara Ó Briain. And, while it's not watched by as many people as in its heyday - when everybody in Britain seemed to know Rhod Gilbert's 'lost luggage' routine - it's still seen to be one of the most prestigious TV bookings for both up-and-coming and established comics. Here are 31 who have made the grade and are appearing at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe 2025. You can buy tickets for all the shows here. 1 . Dan Tiernan: All In "Following two sold-out, award-nominated years at the Fringe, Dan's back and he's giving you everything he's got. No bluffing." Money Barrel, July 28-August 24. | Contributed Photo Sales 2 . Andy Parsons: Please #@!$ Off to Mars "Life is hard – come and have a laugh about it." Pleasance Courtyard, July 30-August 10. | Contributed Photo Sales 3 . David O'Doherty: Highway to the David Zone "A new opus from the hairy Enya, the Ryanair Bublé, the nine-volt battery-powered Beethoven. Talking, songs, talking during songs, talking while walking around – it's got the lot." Assembly George Square, July 30-August 2. | Contributed Photo Sales 4 . Jonny Pelham: Is It Me? "Award-winning comedian Jonny Pelham is newly single, he's moved to London and is being encouraged by the government to take speed everyday. Is It Me? is a hilarious new stand-up show looking at what it means to be diagnosed as 'neurodiverse,' what constitutes normality and how to find happiness in a world that's falling apart." Monkey Barrel, July 28-August 25. | Contributed Photo Sales
