I'd love to see that house too. I wonder if it is just a shell used for the exterior shots, or if the inside looks like what we saw on the show.

Ann, I am thinking that it looks like what we saw inside, except maybe for the new kitchen that was added on in later episodes..At least I HOPE it is that way.. what a bummer if it isn't.:-( If you think about it, there wasn't a whole lot of extra things for the inside, so it wouldn't have been that hard to film it. Ya think?

I got to thinking about the inside of the Ingalls house on the tv series... does anyone ever remember seeing the wall that would be on the right as you walk into the house? I don't... so maybe that WOULD mean that the inside of the house WAS a prop? That thought shatters my image of the house... oh the pain! LOL.

I always figured the inside was filmed at a studio. I mean, it was always so dark in the house (as it would have been in real life, I suppose), and except for a bit of wall around the door and window on the same side of the house, I don't recall ever seeing a wall from inside. The background was just darkness.
You'd see the family at the table, the fireplace in back of them, but on either side of the fireplace, I think it was just dark. Then occasionally we'd see Ma & Pa's bed area, or the girls up in the loft, but not much more than that, really.

FYI

I'm watching an episode right now on CMT and they've shown the "right" wall! It's the episode "In the Big Inning".

What is on the wall? Anything? Is that the wall where the stove is?

No..it didn't show anything on it. Just bare. It's the wall that would be on your right side as you enter the house. The wall behind "Mary's dinner spot".
