The actual house used in filming was constructed especially for the movie at what is now Malibu Creek State Park -- the same location used for filming M*A*S*H, Planet of the Apes, and Pleasantville. The house is still there today, and is used as a ranger station for the park.

But the black and white version of the film remains a success.
