As large as it looks, the home is only 4800sqft plus garage and 40 acres. It's funny how often they referred to the "back forty", when that's all they really had.
The owner of the original Southfork was under some investigation and didn't want the publicity, so he asked production to stop at the ranch after the 5 episode mini-series was shot. It was in Frisco, TX at Preston and Main.
Interesting this is a Dallas, think BBQ, thread and the original "mansion" was the "Brinkman Ranch". It burned in 1986, but is still a working ranch.
Bobby just brought Gary home and Gary said the place looked just about the same.... It's the first episode with a whole new damn house!!!!
