The interior and back yard scenes in Bewitched, as well as some garage and front porch scenes were all filmed in a soundstage. The set consisted of a modular (but complete) first floor and back yard. It also contained the hallway visible above the steps (though those doors at the top only led to tiny closets!). That stained woodwork drop-ceiling in the dining room and the partially-lowered hallway ceiling show the REAL outline of this fake 2nd floor. All of the upstairs shots on Bewitched were filmed on another set, often just a few rooms that were frequently changed around. The exception to all this is the nursery, which was actually where the den was on the main first floor set! For nursery scenes, they just put a fake wall up outside the door to hide the view into the kitchen (though you can make out the hall closet in one episode... click here!) For den scenes, they put brown panelling up over the pink walls, covering the nursery window area with the plain wall near the den's fireplace. If you look closely, you can see that the den walls stick out more with respect to the white trimwork. In 1970, a fire damaged parts of the set (primarily the kitchen), so while the crew filmed the Salem, Gloucester and Boston episodes (#202-208), the set was overhauled, and many rooms were drastically changed. The kitchen was also extended, and a fake set of steps was added in place of the broom closet. Here is a virtual tour of the set as it appeared on Bewitched:
