One of the most iconic movie homes in the Chicago area was placed on the market Friday. Real Estate agent Eric Van Conover posted a video preview of the home on Tik Tok.
Made famous for appearing in the 1990 Christmas classic “Home Alone,” the red brick Georgian home at 671 North Lincoln Avenue in Winnetka is now officially for sale at $5,250,000.
While key spaces such as the foyer and instantly recognizable entry staircase were largely unchanged, the home is now also loaded with luxurious amenities — including one feature that the home’s Zillow listing considers to be “the ultimate wow factor.”
Consisting of five bedrooms and a whopping six bathrooms, the residence has a number of notable features — like a luxurious primary suite with a gas fireplace, two laundry rooms and an attic-turned-junior suite that offers “a magnificent treetop escape.”
There’s also a recent addition complete with a sun-drenched family room with sweeping 10-foot, 4-inch tall coffered ceilings and walls of French doors that open to the inviting backyard.
The lower level is packed with a fully equipped gym, a recreation space, a full bath, wet bar and a state-of-the-art movie theater, according to the listing. There’s also a state-of-the-art indoor basketball court featuring a realistic three-point line.
If you’re wondering, the current owners purchased the residence for $1,585,000 in March of 2012.
