The iconic mansion featured in the Home Alone films has finally found a new owner. Located in Winnetka, Illinois, the property was listed for $5,250,000 and has now been sold.
The Home Alone mansion from the beloved Christmas film has found a buyer in time for the festive season. The mansion’s exterior was used as the McCallister family home in both Home Alone and the 1992 sequel Home Alone 2: Lost in New York – and looks much like it did then. The Illinois house was put up for sale for $5,250,000 (£4.11m) in May, but now the listing says ‘Sale Pending’ – meaning a lucky buyer has had their offer accepted.
The Coldwell Banker Realty website, where the house is listed, describes the five bedroom, six bathroom property as a ‘legendary holiday dream home reimagined for modern-day luxury’. ‘Brimming with warmth, character and exquisitely drafted detail,’ the 9,126 square ft house – built in 1921 – was fully renovated in 2018. The foyer, entrance staircase, dining room and living room have been preserved as they always were in ‘form and structure’. A sunny family room is a recent addition to the mansion, which also features a double island in the kitchen, a wood-burning fireplace, a three-car garage, as well as a patio which leads out to a back yard. Upstairs, the master suite boasts a fireplace, walk-in wardrobe and marble spa bath. There’s also a fully-equipped gym and cinema room. Not only that but the Georgian house also features an indoor sports court. We wouldn’t mind being left behind in this gaff for Christmas… It’s a stunner. It seems there’s a lot of interest in the house, located in the Winnetka area of Chicago – but we’ll bet not all of them are potential buyers, as the property listing has been viewed over 70,000 time
