If you loved “Home Alone” as a kid, now’s your chance to have Kevin McAllister’s family home for yourself.
The movie’s famous house — yep, it’s a real house — hit the market this week for the first time in 12 years, selling for $5.25 million.
The 9,126-sq. ft. home, built in 1921 and located in the Chicago suburb of Winnetka, Illinois, is being offered by Coldwell Banker Realty’s Dawn McKenna Group. The group shared a video of the home, calling it “a piece of American history,” May 24 on Instagram.
They also listed the property on real estate sites, including Zillow.
The group’s fun video takes viewers on a tour of the five-bedroom, six-bathroom home using clips from “Home Alone” to showcase its many changes.
Though the exterior of the stately Georgia-style home looks the same as it did in the 1990 comedy, the interior has been completely reimagined with a focus on luxury.
“Home Alone” tells the story of 8-year-old Kevin McAllister (Macaulay Culkin), who’s accidentally been left behind by his family when they take a vacation to Paris. Kevin is forced to fend off two hapless burglars who break into the family’s home on Christmas Eve.
