The Bradbury story "There Will Come Soft Rains" is indeed about an
automated house that continued to operate after a nuclear holocaust.
It IS one of the stories in the "The Martian Chronicles". It is also
the only one that I remember the title for---the story had a very
profound impact on me.

A bit of nostalgia hit, and, well, I just had to know... One odd side note, I read it in it's short-story form as a class assignment in (of all places) Catholic church-school many many many years ago. (Funny, I never did see that particular priest after that) Gary
