SpongeBob's house before SpongeBob buys and owns it.

124 Conch Street[1] is the address of the pineapple house where SpongeBob SquarePants resides with his pet snail Gary and his pet scallop Shelley. The house is three stories high and fully furnished. It first appears in the pilot episode "Help Wanted." The house is in a suburban area of Bikini Bottom much like his neighbors and the Krusty Krab and Chum Bucket as some houses can be seen from his house and is located near Squidward's house and Patrick's house and is located on Conch Street. Despite the house being a short distance from the Krusty Krab and the Chum Bucket, the restaurants cannot be seen from the pineapple in the SpongeBob SquarePants series.

The pineapple originates from land, when it fell off of a ship navigating above the sea, turning into a house as seen in the TV movie "Truth or Square."

Description[]

It is a gigantic pineapple with blue windows, door, green leaves on the top, and chimney.

Features[]

Interior and exterior[]

There is a garage in the back of the house and two windows in the front. The garage along with the backside of SpongeBob's house is first seen in the episode "Reef Blower." Out back of the house, the backyard is closed in by a square of flowers, much like the ones seen in the sky.

It also has an outdoor tap where a hose can be attached, as seen in "Unreal Estate."

Living room[]

The living room features an inflatable sofa, a regular armchair with a life ring as a seat, a diving helmet-shaped TV, a clock known as a "snail clock" which has a similar appearance to Gary, and a small table with a phone shaped like a conch shell called a "shellphone." There are decorations such as a fishing lure above the sofa, a photo of Gary near the kitchen door, and on the left a fishing hook wall ornament, above a small table. On the small table is a potted coral plant. The living room features blue bamboo wallpaper, two fishing hook ornaments, and various pictures framed on the wall.

Kitchen[]

The kitchen contains a fridge, a stove, a sink, a cupboard, a table, and other typical kitchen tools. Gary's food bowl can also be found here, though sometimes it is seen in SpongeBob's bedroom. A green staircase is located outside of the kitchen.

There is a set of stairs on the left that twists around the home and stops at a safe door behind the chute entrance to the second floor. In some episodes, there is a hallway behind the door.

Laundry room[]

The laundry room features a basket full of square pants, some washing bottles, as well as washing machines.

This room is only seen in "To SquarePants or Not to SquarePants."

Wallhalla[]

It features a mold garden with a magic fridge that appears to be SpongeBob's and a magic medicine cabinet that also appears to be SpongeBob's. It also features a dining area.

Second floor[]

SpongeBob's bedroom[]

SpongeBob's bathroom is found on the second floor along with the bedroom. The hallway contains doors leading to his library, bathroom, and gallery, as well as an additional staircase that leads to his bedroom.

SpongeBob's bathroom[]

His bathroom contains a square-shaped toilet, a shower/bathtub, a sink, wringer, etc. as well as a porthole window that looks out onto Conch Street. His bathtub is decorated with a bamboo curtain.

SpongeBob's library[]

Main article: SpongeBob's library

The library is the largest room in the house and occupies both the second and third stories. It contains books such as Memories of T.S. Halibut, Cooking Without Salt, and Head Shrinking for Beginners!, as well as various comic books and SpongeBob's work diary. The library also contains a reading chair chained to the ceiling by a fishing hook, a huge pipe organ, a fireplace, a porthole window, and a spare closet. There is also an entrance chute coming from SpongeBob's room, first seen in "Boating School."

Workout room[]

There is a workout room, featuring a stuffed animal barbell and other light objects that are heavy for SpongeBob, as seen in "Help Wanted," "MuscleBob BuffPants," "The Great Snail Race," "Bummer Vacation," "No Nose Knows," "A Pal for Gary," "The Way of the Sponge," and "Sharks vs. Pods."

Third floor[]

Staircase[]

The staircase to the third floor is also green-colored and is found next to the library. SpongeBob's bedroom is found on the third floor, along with a hallway, and has red bamboo wallpaper on the right side and blue metal wallpaper on the left. The left side also contains a porthole window from which the inside of Squidward Tentacles' house can be seen.

In the middle, there is a bed that contains three white mattresses, bamboo sticks used to hold them together, a white pillow, and a green buoy with dark green rings. Above his bed is a diving board connected to a ladder, which appears to be used to jump from one room to another to put on his clothes, as seen in "Help Wanted."

Objects in his room include a foghorn that serves as an alarm clock, which sits atop a barrel, a food bowl from which his pet snail Gary eats, piles of newspaper near the bowl for Gary to sleep on, a toy treasure chest, a scallop that hangs in a birdcage, and a giant calendar.

Closet[]

There is also a closet in the room, in which SpongeBob stores his pants.

The season 5 episode "Night Light" shows that there is another bathroom attached to the bedroom.

There is also an escape hatch to the grassy roof of the house, which is seen in "Jellyfish Jam," "Something Smells," "That Sinking Feeling," "Love That Squid," and "Gary's New Toy." This terrace is hidden by the leaves atop the pineapple.

In several of the early tie-in video games such as Operation Krabby Patty, SpongeBob's bedroom is on the first floor as SpongeBob's house appears to only have one floor in those video games.

Roof[]

SpongeBob's third floor contains an escape hatch to the roof. Most of the time, SpongeBob climbs onto his roof to avoid various types of danger, although he also runs up his wall to the roof in, "Best Day Ever" where Gary is revealed to be at the top of. The roof contains one unfurnished room with no ceiling, and the wall is made out of the green crown of the pineapple.

Attic[]

The attic is located on near the top of the pineapple as it has no wallpaper as seen in "Squidiot Box" where he was cleaning his attic until he finds the imagination box. The attic is where all of SpongeBob's old stuff is found.

Sentient SpongeBob House

SpongeBob's house being sentient in the episode "Unreal Estate."

Just like Squidward's house, SpongeBob's house has shown sentience and has come alive on a few occasions.

  • "Procrastination" - SpongeBob's house can be seen on fire during SpongeBob's dream. It asks why it was set on fire, before then telling SpongeBob to stop wasting time and actually do his essay. In this appearance, the door simulates a mouth, while the upper window represents an eye (although the first floor window is not used as an eye).
  • "Ghost Host" - The Flying Dutchman possesses SpongeBob's house in order to scare SpongeBob. Its appearance in this episode is similar to that of "Procrastination." However, both windows are used as eyes instead of just one window.
  • "Truth or Square" - SpongeBob's house can be seen sentient in the "Rubber Hose Rag" song in Patchy the Pirate's World of Rare and Rejected SpongeBob Clips. It grows arms and legs to help SpongeBob go to the sentient Krusty Krab. This iteration of SpongeBob's house has the ability to grow arms and legs, a door mouth, and it has both windows for eyes (unlike in "Procrastination").
  • "Unreal Estate" - SpongeBob's house can be seen sentient during SpongeBob's flashbacks. It can be seen going down the slide with SpongeBob (crushing him in the process), taking photos in a photo booth, and playing pillow fight with SpongeBob. Although it has limbs like in "Truth or Square," this iteration of his house has no facial features.
  • The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run - When SpongeBob finds out that Gary went missing, the house becomes sentient and shouts his name. Its appearance here has no facial features besides the giant mouth.

A SpongeBob-themed villa, at Nickelodeon Hotels and Resorts in Punta Cana, has an exterior based on SpongeBob's house.

  • The episodes "BlackJack," "Pet Sitter Pat," and "Bubble Buddy Returns" reveal that the post office uses "The Pineapple" and "The Big Pineapple" as alternates to "124 Conch Street."
  • The staircase inside SpongeBob's house is sometimes on the left side, and sometimes it's on the right side, or it could be on both sides.
  • In the episode "I'm with Stupid," after SpongeBob crashes into his house, Marty says, "That's unhealthy," after Janet says, "He lives in a fruit?" This is because of their stupidity.
  • In "One Krabs Trash," his bedroom is on the first floor, while it is usually on the third floor.
  • In "Procrastination," the voice for SpongeBob's house in his dream is provided by Dee Bradley Baker.
  • There is a game on TLC.com in which players have to match coupons to the correct item and one of the coupons has the pineapple house on it.
  • Sometimes, the garage at the back of SpongeBob's house is directly in the center, and sometimes, more off to the side. Sometimes, there's a back door in the center.

  • In the episodes "Help Wanted," "Pickles," "Employee of the Month," "One Krabs Trash," and "Best Day Ever," SpongeBob's bed is placed on the right side of his room, but in other episodes, his bed is on the left side.
  • If a straw is stuck in the side in the house, one could use it to drink the pineapple juice from it. This is demonstrated by the nematodes in the episode "Home Sweet Pineapple."
  • In the episode "Boating School," SpongeBob's library is located right where the staircase should be. Yet, in later episodes, the true passageway to SpongeBob's library is unknown though many instances show that it is located just before the stairs, supposedly if SpongeBob has a hallway connecting the stairs and the library.

Errors[]

  • In some episodes, SpongeBob's house is not seen near Squidward and Patrick's houses.
  • In the episode "Help Wanted," when SpongeBob's house was seen for the first time, there is only one window in the front. This was a feature in some of the other early episodes, such as "Jellyfishing," "Boating School," and "Sandy's Rocket," but after 1999, it is almost always depicted with multiple windows on the front.
  • SpongeBob's house is missing its flowers in "Giant Squidward" and the official Roblox Nickelodeon experience Nickverse.
  • SpongeBob's house is mirrored in "Fungus Among Us" and Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2. This can be noted by the chimney and the windows being on the wrong sides.
