742 Evergreen Terrace is the fictional street address in Springfield of the Simpson family home in the animated sitcom, ''The Simpsons'' and in the feature film ''The Simpsons Movie''. In the series, the house is owned by Homer and Marge Simpson who live with their three children. The street name is a reference to The Evergreen State College in Olympia, Washington, creator Matt Groening's alma mater. To the left of the Simpsons' house (as seen from the street) is Ned Flanders' house, at 744 Evergreen Terrace.〔(BBC - Cult - The Simpsons: Season Nine Episode Guide - Realty Bites )〕 The house on the right has been occupied by numerous owners, including Ruth and Laura Powers, Sideshow Bob, and the extended Flanders family (Ted Flanders and his daughters Connie and Bonnie). In 1997, a real-life replica of the house was constructed at 712 Red Bark Lane in Henderson, Nevada, and given away as the grand prize in a contest.〔 ==Design== The house is a light pink (later in the series, the house becomes light brown) two-story detached house with an attached garage, basement, and loft. A suburban tract house,〔 the building is at least wide.〔 The front door leads straight into the foyer where an arch to the left leads to the sitting room, and one to the right leads into the dining room. There is also a small cupboard and stairs to the second floor. The sitting room and the dining room have bay windows. At the back of the house is the living room and the kitchen. Toward the house's rear are stairs to the basement, which are replaced by a closet in some episodes. Although rarely seen, there is also a hallway off of the kitchen leading to a recreation room.〔"Three Men and a Comic Book", "Lady Bouvier's Lover", "Brother from the Same Planet", and "White Christmas Blues"〕 The second story of the house has the bedrooms, including Marge and Homer's bedroom (with an ensuite bathroom), Bart's bedroom, Lisa's bedroom, and Maggie's bedroom. There is also a bathroom, often shown in inconsistent places in different episodes. On the landing, there is a hatch that leads to the attic. The episode "Lisa's Wedding", set fifteen years in the future, shows a wooden addition to the second floor, built (rather poorly) by Homer. It functions as a guest bedroom, but Homer warns Lisa and her fiancé that, "If the building inspector asks, it's not a room. It's a window box". The back yard of the house is surrounded by a wooden picket fence and a low box hedge. It features a patio and Bart's treehouse, from which ''The Simpsons'' annual "Treehouse of Horror" Halloween specials take their name. Occasionally, there is a hammock tied to two trees near the fence that borders Ned Flanders's backyard. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Simpsons house」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
