Wow,this is incredible-according to FirstTeamEstates,the legendary bandhouse at 1173 Beacon Avenue in Anaheim is being put up for sale by its owner.There will be an open house on Saturday,January 15th,from 11 am to 4 pm;the listing price is $325,000.Good luck and congratulations to the person who purchases this piece of ND history.
You have an opportunity to own a piece of Anaheim and Orange County History. The ‘Beacon Street’ house is famously known because a local band known as No Doubt recorded an album and 2 videos at this home. The home, which was originally a 4 bedroom, is now a 3 bedroom (a wall can be put up to make it a 4 bedroom again) with 2 baths. It has a large yard in the front as well as a large yard in the back. Newer roof (2004) and some newer dual pane windows. Newer laminate wood flooring in the living/eating room and the hallway. Good area, one of the best streets in tne neighborhood. Walking distance to Disneyland. Close to schools, transportation, shopping and FWY access.
EDIT-The OC Weekly has reported the news of the sale,and talked to Tom about it-he confirmed that the videos for Trapped In A Box and Just A Girl were filmed at the house,and that much of the Tragic Kingdom album was written there(of course,the songs from The Beacon Street Collection were written in that famous garage,as well.)Again,best of luck to whoever ends up purchasing the home-it’s such an historic landmark,it really should be made into a No Doubt museum,as our friends at BSO suggested!
1173 West Beacon Avenue in Anaheim is world-famous.
It was the family home of Gwen Stefani, but it’s also where No Doubt rehearsed, recorded some of The Beacon Street Collection in the garage and filmed two videos in. And it’s on the market.
Now all you need is $325,000.
We just chatted with No Doubt guitarist Tom Dumont, who confirms that not only were the “Trapped in a Box” and “Just a Girl” music videos filmed at the Anaheim home, but he also adds that “much of Tragic Kingdom” was written there.

Hat tip to No Doubt fansite Beacon Street Online, who suggests fans should pool their cash to turn the place into a museum!
