Forks Twilight Tour: Bella Swan's House

Address: 775 K St, Forks, WA (click here for map)

In the Twilight Saga novels by Stephenie Meyer, Bella Swan lives with her father Charlie. This stop was likely created by the Forks Chamber of Commerce as part of their tours of local locations used in the books. When setting up the tours, they needed to select some local buildings to act as the Swan's home and the home of the Cullen family. The homes in the book were never based on actual locations.

Teachers Kim and David McIrvin volunteered their home to represent Bella's home. A sign was placed out front stating it's the home of the Swans. It is likely selected because it's one of the few two-story Craftsman homes in the city. In a twist of fate, the house has similarities to the fictional inside as well as outside; there is a room that is painted blue and there are yellow cupboards just like in the book.

ALISHA SAYS:

"The house isn't open to the public, it's actually a private residence. Let's respect the privacy of the home owners and not trespass."

Twilight has become a big hit. Stephanie Meyer came up with a fantastic dream that not only her, but every body else in Australia has enjoys and wont more and more each day.
I am a huge fan in twilight and I fan of Taylor Daniel Lautner.
I’m only a little younger then he [laughs].
My dream job is to become an actress and its all because of Taylor. I have learned a lot about him, but reading isn’t knowing and finding out. He has inspired me that I believe that I will be great acting and i would love to act for my future [yippee]. so thank you Taylor if you read this and I hope one day i get to meet you unless there are a whole lot of other girls that chase after you lolz. Don’t worry i wont cya and thank you to Stephanie Meyer and the directors of twilight- new monn
