Welcome to Movie Monday, when I feature the houses from our favorite films. The first Stuart Little movie, which was based on the classic book by E.B. White, came out in 1999, and it may have been marketed to kids, but the sets were a treat for their parents, too. When I watched it with my children, I was wowed by how colorful and creative the Little family’s house was. It’s a New York City brownstone near Central Park, wedged tightly between much larger buildings on either side.

Mr. and Mrs. Little go to an orphanage to adopt a brother for their only son George, but end up adopting a mouse named Stuart (Michael J. Fox)–who wears clothes and talks like a human–instead. Here they are bringing him home for the first time:

The dad, Fredrick Little, was played by Hugh Laurie, before he starred in the series “House.” Geena Davis played Stuart’s mom Eleanor. Stuart looks up at his new parents, and the entry hall of his new home:

When George (Jonathan Lipnicki) learns that his new brother is a rodent, he opens the hidden door in the wall and runs down to the basement (can’t blame the kid):

Looking down the hall into the kitchen:

Stuart looks down into the entry where his new extended family has gathered to meet him:

The living room:

Two mice show up to reclaim Stuart, who they say is their son:

The director of the orphanage, played by Julia Sweeney, arrives and tells them that the mice who reclaimed Stuart were imposters:

The stone fireplace in the living room:

Dining room:

Upstairs hallway. Love that child-sized grandfather clock:

Stuart’s bedroom in the first movie:

The attention to detail is amazing, like the little stars above the door:

In the sequel, Stuart and George share a room with a unique bunkbed solution:

The top bunk has been designed as a room for Stuart within the big room:

The big round window in their room:

The kids’ bath:

Stuart has his own little sink and mirror:

The kitchen was barely shown in the first movie, but the sequel had several scenes in it:

Did you know that the screenplay for the first Stuart Little movie was written by M. Night Shyamalan? That’s right–the guy who wrote The Sixth Sense.

Another new set for the sequel was the family’s rooftop terrace:
