[Original Post]:
16401 Knollwood Drive
5 Beds/3 Baths on 3,974 sqft on a total lot size of 0.54 acres built in 1963 was first listed back on September 5, 2013 for $825,000 and is currently in a pending status. This home was last purchased on September 15, 1989 for $530,000. 

This home was used for the Valley party scenes in the 1995 film Clueless featuring Alicia Silverstone, Stacey Dash, Brittany Murphy, and Paul Rudd. The producers selected this home because they felt it represented the typical "Valley" home which was a good pick considering this home contains Mid Century Modern elements commonly found in the SFV that were built at the height of the SFV housing boom and expansion in the 60's. Clueless utilized other SFV locations discussed here
