The sprawling mansion where the reality TV show “Being Bobby Brown” was filmed is on the market in Alpharetta, GA, for $1.9 million.

Singers Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston purchased the 7,734-square-foot home in 2003 for $1.39 million. In 2007, the celebrity couple sold the designer five-bedroom home to the Chevalier family for $1.19 million.

“When we bought the house, we were looking for a home in the Country Club of the South,” says homeowner Danielle Chevalier. The gated country club community boasts 745 homes and a golf course, among other residential amenities.

“At the time, Whitney Houston and Bobby Brown’s house was on the market—and we thought it had really good bones,” adds Chevalier.

Did the celebrity pedigree factor into the Chevaliers’ purchase of the gated estate?

“I had never even seen the show,” Chevalier says. It aired for a single season on Bravo in 2005, and a review from the time called the show “the most disgusting and execrable series ever to ooze its way onto television.” It’s a distinction that’s certainly been topped in the decades since, but we don’t blame Chevalier for not tuning in.

“We were definitely fans of hers. But for us, that didn’t have anything to do with our decision. It was more about the house being a beautiful home at the end of a cul-de-sac, and its location in the Country Club of the South,” Chevalier says. “They had good taste, so I can see why they chose this home.”

Front entry doors open to a two-story foyer and a gorgeous staircase.

“Whitney had great taste, but like every homeowner, we updated some things to make it our own,” says Chevalier. “We put in a swimming pool, changed out the railings, put in some fire pits outside, and installed hardwood floors upstairs.”

The most impressive room in the house is the enormous living room, which boasts a vaulted ceiling and large windows allowing natural light to flood the beautiful space. There’s also a spacious dining room designed for entertaining.

On the lower terrace level, there’s a “mahogany bar, billiards/game area, bedroom/full bathroom, exercise, and an open media room with a 150-inch drop-down screen,” according to the listing.

Other luxury amenities include updated lighting and an invisible-edge, saltwater pool with a separate spa.

The chef’s kitchen comes with high-end appliances, a wine/coffee bar, and an octagonal breakfast nook.

The primary suite is on the main level and features dual closets, a coffee bar, and a beautiful bathroom with a soaking tub. Upstairs, three en suite bedrooms boast newer hardwood floors.

“The home is a one in a million for sure,” says Chevalier. “I am not sure if Whitney Houston owning it would make a difference to the next buyer, but it certainly could for some. Hopefully, someone will love living here as much as I did. All of the neighbors said while [Brown and Houston] were living here, they were really nice. We were out of town when she sadly passed away. The phone was ringing off the hook asking us for interviews. We declined them all at the time out of respect for her.”
