• The brickwork seen in Number 24's living room was re-used from prison interiors created for Grundy's Prisoner.

• The front door used to have green stained glass windows either side of it, which were, until 2005, covered with blank boards.

• The decor of this house remained roughly the same until 1992, when Madge Bishop left for Queensland and it was taken over by Lou Carpenter. He added a lot of his own furniture. In 1994, Madge sold the house to Marlene Kratz, who brought a new paint scheme and her own eclectic mix of bric-a-brac. When Marlene faced heavy fines for unpaid parking tickets, in 1996, all of her belongings were repossessed. Her nephew Sam bought her new furniture and redecorated. In 2005, the house was trashed by Dylan Timmins, following a feud with the Bishop family and received a new look, including a small change in layout in the kitchen and the doors to the rest of the house.

• Number 24 Ramsay Street was owned by the Ramsay family for many years. Max and Madge owned half each after she helped him out of some financial problems and he planned to pay her back in installments. However, when Max left town and Madge stayed, she bought the house outright from the Daniels Corporation, who had purchased it earlier that year during plans to build a supermarket access road on the street. In 1994, Madge sold the house to Marlene Kratz, who rented it to Madge and Harold when they returned to town for good in 1997. Although it was never mentioned on-screen, it seems that the Bishops bought the house back soon after, as they became embroiled in a land dispute with Lou Carpenter. In 2008, Harold planned to sell the house to Marco Silvani and Carmella Cammeniti, as he left Erinsborough to travel around Australia, but changed his mind at the last minute, opting to keep the house and rent it out to the young couple. In 2009, following a battle with cancer, Harold donated the house to the Salvation Army for use by families in need.

Floor Plan

Please note: Due to studio and production constraints, alterations are often made to the layout of rooms/sets. Thus, the above illustration is intended as a plan based on the architecture of the actual houses on Pin Oak Court, and the various replicated interior layouts that have appeared on-screen over the years.
