New Mexico property owner has to put up with hundreds of visitors a day. The family who own Walter White’s Breaking Bad house have been driven out by the hundreds of fan visits the property receives each day. In the award-winning drama, which ran from 2008 to 2013, the suburban house, situated in New Mexico, was home to Bryan Cranston’s lead character and his family.

The exteriors and back garden of the Albuquerque house – though not the interiors – were used to portray the home of White. Ever since the show’s huge success, fans have become “the ones who knock”, with an average of 300 cars coming by the house each day.
Homeowner Joanne Quintana said that these people, keen to see the show’s real-life locations, have impacted her family’s quality of life and forced her decision to put the house on the market. It is now officially being sold for $4m (£3.25m), which is almost 10 times the median sale price in its neighbourhood (£421,000). The house has four bedrooms, two bathrooms and a garden with a swimming pool.
Quintana’s parents initially bought the house in 1973, but after they recently died, Quintana and her brothers decided it was time to let it go as opposed to pushback against the droves of fans. “This was our family home from 1973, almost 52 years,” she told local TV station KOB4. “So we’re going to walk away with just our memories. It’s time to move on. We’re done. There’s no reason to fight any more.”.
