The Atlanta home where scenes from the 2009 film The Blind Side were shot is on the market for $3.9 million.

Based on the true story of current NFL player Michael Oher, the film shows the obstacles he overcame, including being homeless, and the Atlanta family that took him in.

The Buckhead residence was featured as the home of the Tuohys, the family who took Oher in when he was still in high school.

Actress Sandra Bullock won an Academy Award for best actress for her role as Leigh Anne Tuohy, mother of the family.

Several of the rooms on the main floor of the house were used during filming, including the kitchen and family room, dining room, living room, and master bedroom.

The home, designed by Spitzmiller & Norris, has seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, two half-baths, and three levels, totaling 14,000 square feet.

Norman Realtor Debbie Shay told 11Alive News that the house itself has left some buyers star struck.

“It’s funny, because they know the different scenes,” Shay said, “and it’s been fun. I’m really impressed by what they remember and can recite.”

Watch below as 11Alive News takes a tour of the $3.9 million home.
