The Flintstone residence is the home of the Flintstones family, and a recurring location in the Flintstones animated franchise. It is located in Bedrock and is a house consisting mainly of a garage and backyard.

Description

The residence is a suburban house with one floor and organic circular architecture. It is topped with pancaked slab roofs, stone walls, wooden doors and windows that give it an all natural look. It also has a garage door where Fred parks his Flintmobile in the garage, and has a backyard made for outdoor activities (such as barbecue grilling).

For its interior, the house is filled with many Stone Age-themed decorations, and essentially includes a living room, a kitchen, an indoor garage, and a bedroom.

In "Can't Nap," an episode of the Dexter's Laboratory backup segment The Justice Friends, Valhallen brings over the cat-like White Tiger to Muscular Arms for the night, which sets off Major Glory's allergies. He tries to get him to sleep out on the balcony, leading to a squabble between the two which mirrors Fred trying to get Baby Puss out of the Flintstone house at night. When White Tiger locks Major Glory out, he accidentally calls for Wilma instead of Krunk, who has taken a liking to White Tiger. Major Glory then flies away to find another way in, and Krunk answers the door dressed like Wilma.

  • In the TV special The Joe Piscopo New Jersey Special, in a nightclub that is supposed to be in Hollyrock, California, Joe Piscopo plays Fred presenting The Flintstones: The Lost Episodes, with Danny DeVito as his co-host, Barney. They show a clip from one of their favorite never-before-seen episodes, which involves Fred and Barney standing outside Fred's house to discuss Fred's anger over 18-year-old Pebbles dating a Neanderthal.
  • In the Family Guy episode "Peter's Daughter," Fred takes Wilma to Mr. Stoneberg to get a legal separation for not letting him back in after Baby Puss removes him from their house and locks him outside. He had been knocking for 20 minutes and shouting "Wilma!" but she claims to not have heard because she was taking a shower, but he believes that she was simply ignoring him and goes on further about her spending all his money on expensive clothes and hairdos, and not being available for sex, the "passive-aggressive bitch" she is.
  • In The Ricky Gervais Show episode "Monkey News," Karl Pilkington goes on a tangent about how there had to be a crossover point between humans and dinosaurs to humans and dogs, which baffles cohosts, Ricky Gervais and Steve Merchant, with the latter believing he was simply influenced by watching The Flintstones, with a cartoon illustration of Pilkington dressed like Fred and doing things in Bedrock like driving the Flintmobile, letting out Baby Puss, and pouring cement into a pelican inside Fred's house.

  • Channel Chasers (part 2): Timmy, Cosmo, and Wanda are sent into a parody of The Flintstones called The Meatflints, where the Flintstone house appears. Inside, the TV remote in typical Flintstones fashion with a tiny pterodactyl flying out to turn on the TV. Meanwhile, Cosmo disturbs a sleeping sabretooth tiger resembling Baby Puss with Dino's color scheme. They run around the house in a background loop mocking the limited budget that Hanna-Barbera had, with the pterodactyl commenting, "It's a cycle," instead of the usual "It's a living."
  • "Land Before Timmy:" Bogged down with the failure of technology, Timmy wishes for a world without, which is now a Flintstones-like world. The Turners are now called the Turnstones who live in a house like the Flintstones.
