Martyshouse

The McFly residence in 1985, before Marty's trip to 1955.

The McFly residence in Lyon Estates was the one-story home of the McFly family in 1985. Its address was 9303. George McFly, his wife Lorraine, and their three children Marty, Dave, and Linda all lived there. It is unknown when the children moved out, or if even the parents stayed living in the house by 2015. It was close to electrical towers.

Biff Tannen was a frequent visitor to the house to pick up George's work for him in one timeline, or to wax his car in another timeline. It is unclear how close he may have lived to them in either timeline.

Marty in the old house.

Once Marty changed the past to reflect the events of the present, he woke up to a much improved living environment, changing from a dingy antiquated setting to a clean and modern home. There were no longer garbage cans along the driveway and the general appearance of the exterior of the house was of high value. Furthermore, the vehicles outside the house had changed from a wrecked car on a tow truck to a BMW 733i in the driveway and a Toyota 4X4 in the garage.

The house on the billboard.

In 1985A, the house was purchased by an African-American family who had suffered many intrusions in the past.

While in 1955, Marty saw the design of his house on the billboard for Lyon Estates.

Behind the scenes

The McFly residence as visited in 2002

In reality, the address still remains 9303 but on Roslyndale Avenue in Arleta (Pacoima), California.

The placement of the electrical towers in the background foreshadow the importance of electricity in the movie in the form of lightning.

In the Back to the Future novelization, it is already constructed in 1955, and Marty parks the DeLorean time machine in the garage.
