The Smosh House also known as 4528 Olympiad Way is a house that was used by Smosh from 2008 to 2017 located in Rosemont, California. Ian and Anthony originally lived there together until Anthony moved out in 2013 with Ian moving out shortly after. Even though no one lived in the house permanently, the duo stayed there during their visits to Sacramento. The full address is 4528 Olympiad Way Sacramento CA.
History[]
The house and its exterior were used to film many of main Smosh videos from 2009 to 2014 as well as Mailtime with Smosh and Lunchtime with Smosh videos.
Leaked Address[]
In 2020, Ian stated on Cold Ones during a discussion on Guns that "[the house's] address got leaked and people were putting it on all the comments of [their] videos" and they would experience fans showing up to the house "every single day". He talked about a time where a fan snuck into the side of the house and took a picture of Anthony sleeping. Ian said he later bought a shotgun in the event of a home invasion.[1]
Similarly, Anthony stated in 2022 on The Trash Taste Podcast that there was many times during their peak of popularity (around 2009-2011) that fans would visit the house. He mentions that there was a time where he was editing a video in the house and he could hear groups of kids running around just outside and looking through Ian and Anthony's trash. He stated that the reason these kinds of things happened was due to Ian and Anthony's carelessness when it came to filming the exterior of the house and landmarks in the area that revealed their location to their fans.[2]
Trivia[]
- The image of the house is blurred out on Google Maps and Google Earth for personal safety reasons.
- In WE FOUND A DEAD GUY!, the house's address is given as "353 Gerard Way" - this is not the actual address but a pun on the name of musician/comic book artist Gerard Way.

- Melanie Moat also lived in the Smosh House for an unknown amount of time after moving to Sacramento from New Jersey to live with Ian.
- From time to time, during production, the house becomes disorganized or even dirty in every video in which the house is the setting. It takes 2 hours to clean up the house. Now, they do green screens and sets for their videos.
- Super Whatevr famously stayed at the house during their "West Coast 5eva" tour with Hot Mulligan and Microwave. True story!
- After Anthony's return to Smosh, all the sketch videos filmed for the main channel took place in a new house, actually the Pressalike Productions studio, which used to be the house where Anthony Padilla lived until 2023. Although it has completely different furnishings, a painting similar to the one hanging over the couch in the original Smosh house is known to be in one of the rooms, though it is unclear if it is the same one and Anthony kept it.
- The kitchen is similar to the kitchen in the house where Ian's parents live that was seen in early Smosh videos and several Food Battles, as both have light brown cabinets with white countertops.
Known Rooms[]
The living room/dining room[]
This is the most used and familiar location in the house, with the living room being where most Mailtime with Smosh videos were filmed. The dining table is where the majority of Lunchtime with Smosh videos were filmed and a handful of smosh is bored videos pre-2017. The brown/beige couches were replaced with darker brown leather couches as well as a new glass coffee table in November 2013 seen in WE FOUND A DEAD GUY. There was a large mirror on the wall that was sometimes used for visual gags such as the Ninja Juice joke in WORST TWIST ENDINGS EVER! or the bikini model seen holding the camera at the mirror in GAMER GETS TROLL'D. The monochrome painting on the wall is of the comic character: The painting on the wall is of The Phantom, a masked crime-fighter who wore a purple suit and wielded pistols. He was later given large googly eyes as a visual gag. There was a fireplace located opposite the couches that was rarely seen in use in videos. There was also a DVD shelf in the corner of the room which was seen to have many Xbox 360 games on it as well as the first season of TruBlood.

This location is familiar to fans of Lunchtime with Smosh as this was seen as Ian and Anthony would come back home from getting lunch, with the barbershop pole being shown and mentioned in many of the episodes. This is where Ian and Anthony would store their mail before opening it on Mailtime with Smosh. Ian mentions this in his food test videos for why a lot of the foreign food he eats is melted or stale.
The bathroom[]
The laundry room[]
The foyer[]
Located right inside the house after walking in through the front door, the foyer was a location of filming for many smosh skits, with the door often being used to introduce characters such as Pierre in I'M NOT RACIST!!! There was a large monochrome photo of the Eiffel Tower seen in this room.
