Here’s one home that any kid can appreciate. The home made famous by the booby-trapping antics of Macaulay Culkin in the 1990 holiday hit movie, “Home Alone,” is now for sale for $2.4 million. Located in the village of Winnetka, IL, which is approximately 20 miles north of downtown Chicago, the Home Alone house at is located at 671 Lincoln Ave., a stately Georgian on a quiet tree-lined street that is easily recognizable from the movie by its red-brick exterior and stately white columns.
In the movie, Culkin’s character, Kevin McCallister, is accidentally left behind in the house as his family boards a plane and leaves on a vacation to France. McCallister is then left to ward off a pair of bumbling thieves, played by Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern, who are trying to burglarize the house.
The home is on .53 acres and features a gourmet kitchen, wood-burning fireplace, a sunroom, a dormered attic bedroom and a detached garage. It is located just a few blocks from Lake Michigan. Winnetka real estate can be quite pricey and the village is considered to be the richest in Illinois; Winnetka’s median home value is $777,900.
