What is the address of the West house & can I visit it?

The West house exterior is a private residence in West Auckland. Scenes within the interior house were filmed inside our studios.
We cannot release the house address. Too much unwanted attention is invasive to the residents’ privacy. Please respect this.

If you wish to visit the real West house set, you can! The set is being transported to Auckland Museum for a six month exhibition starting in December 2010. For more information on Outrageous Fortune: Journey to the Wests click here.
