The Munsters!
My name probably is my answer.
But I may decide to move if I could drive the big car . . .

Seriously, though, the Munsters has a cool look to the outside, but place is just a wreck. And filthy?! I would like to see the woman who who even spend the night in a joint that dirty.
If I had to take the Munsters house, it better look like this (except outside)...

The Addams family had cool stuff in their house, which was a nice house kept clean by Lurch and his feather duster. The Musters house was cool. It had a stone basement, a staircase that rose up when a lever is tripped, a coffin closet phone, etc. But yeah, it was a wreck.
1313 Mockingbird lane so I could play with Spot!
Hey now! Lily worked hard making sure the old place looked like an old spooky mansion. She even went around placing cob webs everywhere where they were needed!
The Addams Family!! It looked more livable, more eccentric with more surprises to be found.
The Munsters.
I love the way the stairs open, I love Grandpa's lab, I love Spot. I like Herman and Lily better than Morticia and Gomez. M & G are more into each other than into the family. The Munsters seemed more like a family. And I love the cars! George Barris you're the greatest!
Does somebody own the cars?
I like the architectural design of the Addams house from the outside better. Plus the really groovy playroom: Rack, Guillotine, Stock, Shackles, ect. Not to forget the backyard comes with it's very own swamp. My kind of house.
I guess this answers your question.

That is really cool Wicked!
I was raised in a shambled old house, with cobwebs, dark hallways, and holes in the ceiling and walls. We had a wood stove and in one room you could hear the carpenter bees in the walls. We had snakes crawling under the house. There were two ruined houses within sight. A old log cabin, and a small one room house my aunt lived in before she died. The place was actually haunted. There was a beaten-up dusty old upright piano in the living room, and a wood stove. I'd pick the munsters house. We didn't have running water in the house till I was nine and didn't have a telephone either until then.
Not only that, but I tried to get something out of the closet, and something pulled it back in and growled at me. I managed to get the item- a leather jacket- and it had four long shreds down it.
Hands down--The Munster home!
I want to live here ...

Definitely the Munsters! As awesome as John Astin was, and as awesome as Carolyn Jones looked (rowr!), I would feel more comfortable with the working-class Munsters. Plus, the Munsters were only "monsters" as defined by the rest of the community-they were actually pretty awesome to each other. The Addams family could be pretty evil about some things!
Munsters.
I'm sticking to with living with the Addams, if for no other reason because they look like they bathe regularly.
The Munsters live in their own filth (and are dead), making them stinky Munsterbillies.
I hate to break it to you people, but you can always CLEAN the house after you move in. The OP asked which HOUSE you'd rather live IN, not what family you'd rather live WITH. The house will be yours, and you can hire a company to clean it. Then you can have a CLEAN trap-door staircase, and a CLEAN stone basement lab, and a CLEAN coffin phonebooth.
Munsters :)
Still going with the Addams Mansion, I love gothic Victorian architecture. The Addams Mansion is to die for.
Living in an Addams Family style victorian mansion has been a lifelong dream.
The Munsters house, while cool, isn't really that amazing. It continues to be used on TV today, repainted, and most people don't even notice it.
By the way, Dover Books has some great books with floorplans /pix of victorian homes. I have a pal who wanted to make a victorian looking modern home and he brought them to his architect.
Here's a link:

Tough call. I'm leaning to the Addams family house for style but, if the Munsters property comes with the Koach and Drag-u-la...
Heck with it! This is just a mental exercise. I'll just take both!!!
However, if you want to start furnishing your own Munsters/Addams home...

Definitely THE ADDAMS FAMILY. I ADORE Lurch, and I have a "thing" for THING...
"E" ededed
Got to go with the Munsters....and their dilapidated house/mansion

Munsters.
Scatter, you can have the Munster house!! ::) I'll take the Addams Family House any time!! ??? Parts of it remind me of the old homestead in Transylvania! 8) thrhrt
The Addams Family. That great room is the bomb.
I have to say the Munsters
Hmmmmmm. This one as seen from the outside:

Or this one looking in on the parlour:

:-\
If I had to choose, I'd have to say the Addams Family home. It's a stately Second Empire, whereas the Munster's home is a bit of an architectural mish mosh. You have Gothic Shingle, Queen Anne, and Dutch colonial mixed together. But I honestly could live in either
I'll take The Munsters' digs, as long as it comes with Spot under the staircase. You can't buy home security that good anywhere else.
I'd take the Munsters home too, but I want Spot AND Marylin included- lol-

Munsters! I only wish my staircase would open like theirs!
