IT may look like any other detached house but this property was home to two of the nation’s favourite sisters.
The house was watched by eight million when a beloved series returned to the screens in 2014.

The property in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, was the filming location for Sharon and Tracey’s house in the 2014 revival of sitcom Birds of a Feather.
Birds of a Feather ran on BBC One from 1989 to 1998. ITV brought the series back to life in 2014 for three further seasons, and two Christmas specials, before it went off air in 2020.
The first episode of the tenth series in 2014 had an audience of 8million.
The home starred as the Dalentrace, the upmarket house of Tracey Stubbs, played by Linda Robson, for the ITV revival in 2014.
Despite the show being set in Chigwell, Essex, both ITV and BBC opted for properties in Gerrards Cross to act as Dalentrace.
The house was ranked as third most expensive home on British TV and film by mortgage comparison website Bankrate in 2020.
Tracey Stubbs’ luxury home was said to be worth £2.5million, the same price as the Love Island Villa the site claimed.
Fans will remember the house as the set of countless hilarious moments between Tracey, her sister Sharon Theodopolopous, played by Pauline Quirke, and of course their neighbour Dorien Green, played by Lesley Joseph.
The show follows fun-loving Sharon who moves into her sister’s home from her council flat in Edmonton after both their husbands are convicted of armed robbery and sent to prison.
The revival series won Best Comedy at the TV Choice Awards in 2016 and was nominated for several other British TV awards.
Fans of the show can also spot filming locations from the original BBC series around Essex. The house used as Dalentrace and the home of the sisters’ wealthy and promiscuous neighbour Dorien are both on Camp Road in Gerrards Cross.
Much of the original Dalentrace is unchanged from when it was used in the show, with the exception of a loft conversion, according to online set finder, thatsthelocation.
Despite appearing to be adjacent to each other in the series, the houses are actually three doors down from each other.
Sharon’s Edmonton flat was filmed at the former Charles Hocking House in Acton, London although the estate has since been demolished.
The shop used for filming World of Quid is known as Northwest Supermarket and can be found on Greenford Broadway in Ealing. The shop was a pound store, as in the show, until 2018.
