Dive Into the Hilarious Meet the Parents Pool Scene Mansion
Being the site of the hilarious Meet the Parents pool scene is not the only claim to fame this fancy Oyster Bay mansion has. Listing photo clues reveal it belongs to sportscaster Al Trautwig.
Here’s an unusual chance to purchase the home where Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson and Robert De Niro played water volleyball together—with disastrous results.
Yep, the very home where that hilarious Meet the Parents pool scene was filmed is making a big splash on the market in Syosset, NY.
The property was recently listed at $2,489,000. It was last purchased in 2022 for $2,299,000.
Built in 1983, the towering Colonial features six bedrooms and seven baths in 5,304 square feet. The place is in the Muttontown Village area, which is an upscale neighborhood in Oyster Bay on the North Shore of Long Island.
But “Meet the Parents” isn’t the home’s only tie to fame. Records indicate the property owners are celebrated sportscaster Alan Trautwig and his wife Cathleen.
During his illustrious career, Trautwig worked for the MSG Network, NBC, ABC, NBC Sport Network, and the USA Network. He covered the Olympics several times and most recently did pregame and post-game shows for the New York Knicks and New York Rangers.
For his esteemed work, he’s been honored with at least four national Emmys, 28 New York Emmys, and a New York State Sportscaster of the Year award.
See if you can spot those trophies on display in various rooms of the richly decorated house, on mantles and in cabinets and bookcases.
Interestingly enough, the house has a number of living rooms—some of them with fireplaces and accommodating bars.
And the game room, posh home theater, and a formal dining room will make entertaining a breeze.
The spacious gourmet kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, custom cabinetry, a large island, breakfast area, French doors, and floor-to ceiling windows that overlook the extensive grounds.
The backyard is highlighted by thoughtfully landscaped gardens and wooded areas. Adjacent to the house is a large patio with numerous seating and dining areas.
