			</div><p>Anyone who is a fan of horror movies will most likely recognize this house. The home featured prominently in Wes Craven&#8217;s &#8216;A Nightmare On Elm Street&#8217;. Now, almost four decades on, the A Nightmare On Elm Street house has undergone quite the transformation&#8230;and, thankfully, not a single sighting of Freddy for years.</p>

<p> ;</p>
<p>The exterior of the home featured fairly prominently in the movie. The address of the house in the movie was 1428 Elm Street in Springwood, Ohio. While the number remained the same as it is in real life, the true address is actually <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/@34.0971181,-118.3582032,3a,75y,78.08h,89.57t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1st17rDhEdCVB8eYdVUl4Gaw!2e0!7i16384!8i8192">1428 N Genesee Ave, Los Angeles, California</a>. Located just over a mile away from Sunset Strip.</p>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">THE HOUSE AFTER THE MOVIE</h2>
<p>Originally constructed in 1919, this unassuming house was chosen as a location for the 1984 movie &#8216;A Nightmare On Elm Street&#8217;. After the movie was shot, the owners allowed the house to fall into disrepair.</p>
<div id="attachment_326" style="width: 710px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-326" class="wp-image-326 size-full" src="http://houseandhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-Dream-World.jpg" alt="Nightmare On Elm Street House Dream World" width="700" height="475" /><p id="caption-attachment-326" class="wp-caption-text">The house as it looks in the Dream World.</p></div>
<p>Only joking, that is, of course, the house in the Dream World, in the &#8216;A Nightmare on Elm Street&#8217; movie. It was never quite as bad as that, however, it did need a lot of work&#8230;.</p>

<p>While the outside needed more than just a lick of paint, the inside was probably worse. Much of the house hadn&#8217;t been updated for decades&#8230;.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">THE RENOVATIONS</h2>
<p>Thankfully, the house didn&#8217;t remain this way. A new owner, Angie Hill, purchased the house in 2006 and renovations got underway.</p>

<h2 style="text-align: center;">THE NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET HOUSE AFTER THE RENOVATION</h2>
<p>Here is what the A Nightmare On Elm Street house looks like today, the front of the property looks pretty similar apart from a few cosmetic changes. The door has changed color and the large plant that crawled up the center of the house is long gone, apart from that, it&#8217;s still easily recognizable.</p>
<div id="attachment_71" style="width: 710px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-71" class="wp-image-71" src="http://houseandhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-1.jpg" alt="Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-1" width="700" height="558" /><p id="caption-attachment-71" class="wp-caption-text">Apart from a few cosmetic changes, the house from the front looks very similar.</p></div>

<p>Once you pass the front door, the house becomes unrecognizable to even the biggest fan of A Nightmare on Elm Street. The huge renovation project carried out by owner Angie Hill took a year to complete, which is no surprise when you see just how much work was done. The house now has three bedrooms, four bathrooms and 2,700 square feet of living space.</p>
<div id="attachment_73" style="width: 710px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-73" class="wp-image-73" src="http://houseandhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-3.jpg" alt="Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-3" width="700" height="456" /><p id="caption-attachment-73" class="wp-caption-text">While the house has been modernized, it has a 1960s feel to it.</p></div>

<p>The back of the property now looks completely different. This part of the house underwent a huge change during the renovation and is entirely new. The top floor now has a balcony area overlooking the backyard. Downstairs a porch leads out to the pool, which thankfully has now been cleaned out and looks as good as new.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter wp-image-79" src="http://houseandhistory.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-9.jpg" alt="Nightmare-On-Elm-Street-House-9" width="700" height="603" /></p>
<p>After the renovations were complete, Angie Hill sold the property for $2.1 million.</p>
