Bass wroteMaureen McCormick - also known as Marcia Brady - congratulated Bass and he replied she'd be his first dinner guest.One of the other bidders for the home was "Property Brothers" star Jonathan Silver Scott, who offered his help to Bass renovating the property.<doc-sep>Here's the story of a ... complicated house sale. Just one day after Lance Bass told the world that he was the happy high bidder of a famous Studio City, California, home, better known to classic TV lovers as "The Brady Bunch" residence, the former 'N Sync star revealed there was a last-minute switcheroo. Another bidder had actually beaten him out on the sale of the hallowed home — and now we know who! "You may have heard that the house from the iconic series was recently on the market in California," Discovery CEO David Zaslav announced during a Tuesday-morning second-quarter earnings call, according to Deadline. "I’m excited to share that HGTV is the winning bidder and will restore the 'Brady Bunch' home to its 1970s glory as only HGTV can." Yes, the network behind so many beloved home transformation shows — including "Fixer Upper," "Flip or Flop," "Love It or List It," "Property Brothers" and "Home Town" — is taking over the instantly recognizable television landmark and committed to bringing back all the Brady vibes. Here’s the story Guess who has a big project planned for this iconic ‘70s TV home? Watch for more clues, coming soon. pic.twitter.com/mgOqTeasRW — HGTV (@hgtv) August 7, 2018 "More detail to come over the next few months but we’ll bring all the resources to bear to tell safe, fun stories about this beloved piece of American TV history," Zaslav added. It sounds like the sitcom home is in good hands. But until recently, Bass had hoped it would be in his hands. Over the weekend, the 39-year-old ex-boy bander revealed that his own deal for the property, which he claimed far exceeded the $1.885 million list price, had gone south. "This was a dream come true for me and I spent the night celebrating amongst friends, family, and fans alike," Bass said of his initial belief that the house was his. "The next day, due to 'unforeseen circumstances' the same agent informed us that there’s another Corporate Buyer (Hollywood studio) who wants the house at any cost." Just to show there are no hard feelings, Bass tweeted this show of support for HGTV on Tuesday. HGTV??! Aw man. I’d be pretty upset if it were anyone else, but how can you be mad at HGTV?? My television is stuck on that channel. Kudos HGTV, I know you will do the right thing with the house. That was always my biggest worry. I can smile again. — Lance Bass (@LanceBass) August 7, 2018 While there's no word yet on how much HGTV is shelling out for the home, we're sure the 2,477-square-foot structure is worth every penny to the network. After all, it served as the exterior image of the ultimate TV family home for the entirety of "The Brady Bunch" run, from 1969 to 1974 — and again in a few specials, one spinoff and endless reruns.<doc-sep>The Brady Bunch Close this dialog window Streaming Options UPDATE: Former NSYNC member Lance Bass posted an update on social media Saturday night saying he was “heartbroken” to learn that his winning bid on the Brady Bunch house was passed over due to “unforeseen circumstances,” and that a Hollywood studio with “unlimited resources” would be purchasing the home. “How can I compete with a billion dollar corporate entity?” he wrote. “I truly believe I was used to drive up the price of the home knowing very well that this corporation intended on making their offer and it’s not a good feeling.” EARLIER: It would appear the iconic Brady Bunch house at 11222 Dilling Street in North Hollywood, California, has found a new owner. While the final details of the headline-grabbing sale are still being worked out, former NSYNC member Lance Bass came out on Twitter to say his offer to buy has been “accepted.” “Super excited to announce they accepted my offer on the #BradyBunch house last night!! !” Bass wrote on Friday. “This is going to be a fun project!” The property was listed on Zillow with a price tag of $1.89 million. Realtor Ernie Carlswell, who’s handling the sale, confirmed to EW that the home has entered escrow, but could not state the buyer’s identity as everyone involved “requested full confidentiality and executed a NDA.” However, Carslwell did say Bass “submitted one of the multiple offers received on the property.” Others came from “a wide assortment,” from celebrities to “regular families.” On Wednesday, the home’s seller countered a recent offer, which sent the bidding competition into another round and things began heating up toward the end of the week. When the escrow is completed in the next 10 days or so, the buyer will likely be officially known as there’s such public interest in this house. “When the closing occurs someone usually gets revealed and it pretty much gets out,” Carslwell notes. Bass’ lawyer did not respond to EW’s request for comment. In the meantime, Maureen McCormick, who played “Marcia, Marcia, Marcia” Brady, extended the sitcom family’s blessing to Bass. “Congratulations! May all your problems from here on out always be solved in a half hour!” McCormick tweeted. Bass responded with a promise the she “will most certainly be the first dinner guest! !” and McCormick accepted. “I would absolutely love that,” she wrote. It also appears Property Brother Jonathan Silver Scott and EmSee rap battle app founder Gregory Storm were among the other bidders. “I was planning to remodel the inside to match the #BradyBunch TV Show interior,” Storm tweeted to Bass. “If that’s what you also plan to do instead of tear it down, I’ll feel a little better about not having the highest offer. You’re not tearing it down right?” Bass confirmed “that’s the plan” to remodel the interior and not alter the exterior, which also put a smile on McCormick’s face. Bass further promised Scott “the door will always be open to you and your family.” As EW reported earlier, there was a concern that the Brady Bunch home would be torn down because developers vocalized their interest in the property. Realtor Jodie Levitus Francisco later clarified the family selling the house “really doesn’t want to sell it to a builder.” She also predicted “any builder would face such a tremendous backlash” if they demolished the home. It would seem the Brady house is now in good hands.<doc-sep>Barely a day after announcing he'd made the winning bid to buy the iconic “Brady Bunch” home, Lance Bass was forced to say "Bye Bye Bye" to the house of his dreams. The former 'N Sync singer announced Friday that his offer to buy the Studio City, California, home had been accepted by the seller’s agent after the deadline to receive offers had passed. “Super excited to announce they accepted my offer on the #BradyBunch house last night!! !” he wrote on Twitter. “This is going to be a fun project!” The exterior of the house was used on the television sitcom that ran from 1969-1974. The home hit the market last month for $1.885 million. Bass said his bid "was WAY over the asking price" but that money wasn't an issue. “This was a dream come true for me and I spent the night celebrating amongst friends, family, and fans alike,” he wrote a day later in a detailed Instagram post that featured a photo of himself happily standing on the property. The exterior of this home in Studio City, California, was used on the "Brady Bunch" series. It went on the market in July for $1.885 million. Anthony Barcelo But the same seller's agent informed him the following day that a corporate buyer expressed interest in buying the home regardless of the cost. “We were prepared to go even higher but totally discouraged by the sellers agent, they will outperform any bid with unlimited resources. How is this fair or legal?? How can I compete with a billion dollar corporate entity?” Bass wrote. “I truly believe I was used to drive up the price of the home knowing very well that this corporation intended on making their offer and it’s not a good feeling. I feel used but most importantly I’m hurt and saddened by this highly questionable outcome. I just hope it is not demolished.” Bass then thanked his fans for their support and let them know there was one thing he could do to ease his disappointment. “To make me happier you can register and vote November 6th!”<doc-sep>
