Everything You’ve Ever Wondered About the Home Alone House

All products featured on Architectural Digest are independently selected by our editors. However, when you buy something through our retail links, we may earn an affiliate commission.

There are two reasons people continue to watch Home Alone. First, to get into the Christmas spirit. Second, to ogle over the Home Alone house, which has become an iconic piece of pop culture history over the last few decades. If you need more proof, consider the fact that after the dwelling recently recently hit the market for $5.25 million, it found a buyer in a week.

The iconic film first hit the big screen in 1990, when navy blues and dusty rose pinks were the popular colors amongst family homes. According to Eve Cauley, the set decorator responsible for the iconic look of the McCallister family home, “There were no saturated green or red upholstered furniture sold in stores. Not one piece.”

That was, until the movie came out. “A red dining room became the in-style trend of the 1990s. My decor and wall-covering choices for Home Alone changed the color palette of the nation for the upcoming decade,” Cauley tells AD. According to an article by House Beautiful , the most popular paint colors ahead of the film were subtle mauve, denim blue, light turquoise, and barely-there pink. And after the film’s release, in 1991, Benjamin Moore’s most popular color was Arroyo Red, a deep reddish-brown color. In 1992, it was Forest Green. It seems as though it wasn’t only the holiday spirit that rubbed off on fans.

And with the revival of ’90s nostalgia and the trends that come with it, there’s no better time to do a deep dive into the Chicago-area home where it all began. Whether you’re looking to plan your visit to the real-life dwelling (the Home Alone house address is 671 Lincoln Ave, Winnetka, IL) or find inspiration for your decor this holiday season, read on.

How the Film Came to Be

This moment from the film became a meme before most people even had access to the internet.

Home Alone was produced and written by the venerable film legend, John Hughes. The movie was inspired by a real trip the director went on with his family.

In an article for Chicago magazine, James Hughes—son of the director—recalls: “On August 8, 1989, my father [John Hughes] jotted down in a notebook a movie idea born of traveler’s anxiety that occurred to him during the bustle of departing for our first family trip to Europe, and set it aside. Two weeks later, after returning home, he revisited the premise: What if one of the kids had been accidentally left behind?”

Hughes continues, “Over the next nine days, he completed the first draft of Home Alone. ” According to that same article, Home Alone went on to defy everyone’s prerelease expectations, and quickly became the highest-grossing live-action comedy ever made. It earned $476.7 million worldwide.

A Bit About the Plot

Daniel Stern as Marv and Joe Pesci as Harry in Home Alone

The original Home Alone follows the McCallisters as they prepare for an extended-family Christmas trip to France. The morning of their connecting flight to New York, their youngest son, Kevin McCallister (played by Macaulay Culkin), oversleeps, misses the family headcount, and gets left behind—just like John Hughes dreamt of. (Kevin’s parents were played by Catherine O’Hara and John Heard.)

The first few days feel like sweet freedom, as Kevin basks in his first real dose of independence by tobogganing down the stairs, indulging in massive ice cream sundaes, and watching R-rated movies that uncle Frank (Gerry Bamman) would never allow.

But the fun and games soon come to an end when Kevin is faced by the wet bandits—two bumbling burglars who have their sights set on robbing the McCallister home. Villains Harry (Joe Pesci) and Marv (Daniel Stern) soon realize the house isn’t vacant like they first thought, and an endless game of cat and mouse ensues, with Kevin setting intricate booby traps to protect himself and his family home. All with a little help from old man Marley and his wicked brother Buzz’s pet tarantula, of course.

Where Was Home Alone Filmed?

While all indoor scenes were filmed on set in a high school gymnasium (more on that later), a handful of memorable moments took place outside 671 Lincoln Ave, the address of a red-brick home in the affluent, cookie-cutter town of Winnetka, Illinois. Situated on the North Shore of Chicago, the neighborhood boasts suburban charm that practically begs to be made into a Christmas movie. The home itself was built in 1920 in the Georgian colonial style—perfectly symmetrical. According to Zillow , the home now boasts 5,398 square feet, 10 bedrooms, and 5 baths.

It’s Chris Columbus, the director of the film, whom we can hold responsible for finding the iconic Chicago suburb house. “We basically drove around for several weeks until we found the right house,” Columbus said in a 2015 interview . “We needed to cast a house that would work for the stunts and also a house that was visually appealing, and—if this makes sense—warm and menacing at the same time,” Columbus explained.

“It’s the kind of house, if you were a kid, it would be fun to be left home alone.” Columbus then took photos of home’s exterior, sent them to Hughes for approval, and the rest is history.

The House Then and Now

671 Lincoln Avenue instantly became a destination for fans of the movie, with hoards of tourists flocking to the home hoping for a little taste of movie magic. But it wasn’t the McCallisters that had to put up with the newfound attention—it was the Abendshien family, who owned the home. “We would have not believed back then that there would be sightseers coming to look at that house for years afterward,” John Abendshien said in an interview with Vanity Fair .

According to an article written in 2015 for the Chicago Sun-Times , writer Richard Roeper stopped by the house in the winter of 1991 and reported that 400 vehicles had lined up outside 671 Lincoln Ave on both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Some curious tourists went as far as knocking on the front door, or even venturing into the backyard in hopes of catching a glimpse of the tree house. The Abendshiens stayed in the home until 2011. It then sold in 2012 for a reported $1.585 million , closing the chapter on the Abendshiens’ 25-year residency.

Following the release of Home Sweet Home Alone in 2021 (the sixth sequel to the original), Airbnb reopened the doors to the home. This Airbnb stay offered a highly coveted trip down memory lane, and came complete with a candlelit dinner of Kraft macaroni and cheese and Chicago-style pizza, plus a viewing of the film franchise’s newest holiday adventure, Home Sweet Home Alone. While the Airbnb experience is no longer on the table, you can stream the original Home Alone , Home Alone 2, and the rest of the sequels on Disney+.

The Home Alone House Hits the Market

The house that was once booby-trapped in every way imaginable by Kevin McCallister hit the market for $5.25 million in May of 2024 and found a buyer quickly after. (The Dawn McKenna Group held the listing .) Prior to the 2024 sale, the home had last changed hands in 2012 for a reported $1.585 million . Located at 671 Lincoln Ave, in Winnetka, Illinois, the 9,126 square foot home boasts five bedrooms and six full bathrooms. “The stately brick Georgian residence of Home Alone fame brings forward a rare opportunity to own one of the most iconic movie residences in American pop culture,” stated the listing, which was held by real estate team the Dawn McKenna Group. The property was fully renovated and expanded in 2018, which just about doubled the square footage of the home. “The current owners took the utmost care in maintaining the architectural detail and integrity of the home's most memorable and recognizable spaces,” stated the listing.

Updates include a new sun-drenched family room with sweeping 10-foot coffered ceilings and a gourmet kitchen with every bell and whistle imaginable, from a double island to an eight-burner Wolf range and integrated Sub-Zero fridge. And the eerie, unfinished basement from the movie? It’s nowhere to be seen. In its place you’ll find a fully equipped gym, a recreation space, a full bath, wet bar, and a cozy home movie theater (complete with a Home Alone movie poster), according to the listing. But that’s not all. The space even has a state-of-the-art indoor sports court featuring three basketball hoops. If only Kevin and Buzz could see it today. And the attic where Kevin is shipped off to sleep and says “I hope I never have to see any of you jerks again” has been transformed as well. The space now boasts a junior primary suite that doubles as a treetop escape. It features a full en suite bath with soaking tub, built-ins, and uninterrupted views of the lush backyard. Other updated amenities throughout the home include a three-car attached heated garage and a screened-in porch with a wood-burning fireplace, ideal for movie nights with the whole family. It’s only fitting.

While the light-filled, updated home of today is a far cry from the wallpapered and carpeted space we all know and love, one constant remains: the grand foyer with its iconic staircase. While all other interiors were duplicated on a sound stage, the main staircase was used to film some of the most iconic scenes in the cult-classic Christmas movie. The deep red carpeting has been removed to highlight the rich wood floors, and the damask wallpaper has been subbed out for sleek white walls that bring out the endless crown molding throughout the house.

About Winnetka

Winnetka has established a reputation as one of the most desirable communities in the greater Chicago area, according to Dawn McKenna Group. The town was established in 1869 and named Winnetka, a Native American word that translates to "beautiful land.” Since the town is so idyllic and close to the sandy beaches of Lake Michigan, it comes as no surprise that Winnetka was named the second best city to live in in America by 24/7 Wall Street in 2020 . The community feels like a serene escape, but is conveniently located just a little over an hour by train or 35 minutes by car from downtown Chicago. Winnetka occupies a land area of 3.81 square miles in Cook County, Illinois and as of 2020, has a population of 12,744, according to the official website of Village of Winnetka.

The neighboring homes to 671 Lincoln Ave are just as stately, and prospective buyers will find similar Georgian-style homes (though not famous) on the market just a few blocks away.

Can You Visit the House From Home Alone Today?

Fans visiting the Home Alone house in 2021

Whether you’re looking to tour the home as a prospective buyer or you’re just a fan of the film, a quick search in Google Maps will lead you straight to the house, making a trip to 671 Lincoln Ave accessible and easy. Dawn Silvers, an Illinois resident and lover of the movie, visited the Home Alone house this Thanksgiving. Silvers and her youngest child originally made the drive to Chicago for a concert, and then decided to tack on a visit to Winnetka. “ Home Alone is one of our family favorites. We watch it multiple times throughout the holiday season,” Silvers tells AD.

“When we pulled into the neighborhood, we were giddy as schoolgirls. We pulled onto the street and I think I may have squealed with joy,” Silvers explains. “We knew immediately which house it was by the looks and the amount of people standing on both sides of the street and in front of the house.”

Silvers wasn’t the only one who had the smart idea to visit the house ahead of the holiday season. “There were quite a few cars parked on the opposite side of the street so as not to interfere with picture taking. Everyone was smiling ear to ear, taking pictures, pointing to the different windows.” She eavesdropped on fellow fans asking, “Was this the window Marv went through and stepped on the broken ornaments?” and, “That’s the doorknob that burned the M into Harry’s hand, and the front door that Kevin McCallister slid through on his sled.” The movie magic is (and will always be) in the air on Lincoln Avenue.

The home looks a little different than it did in 1990. There is now a wrought iron gated fence enclosing the property, with a sign that states: “Please do not touch the gate. Thank you!” as well as a new driveway and garage. But the holiday spirit remains. “The Home Alone house had wreaths on five of the windows upstairs, as well as the front door. There was also green garland wrapped around the white columns, the edge of the porch roof, and on the handrails of the front steps,” explains Silvers. The McCallisters would approve.

Building the Set From Scratch

The Winnetka house that Chris Columbus hand-selected as the McCallister house was perfect in every sense of the word, except for one small hiccup—the interior wasn’t big enough. “Film sets must be large enough to have room for the camera, as well as the actors, in addition to the furniture,” explains Cauley, the movie’s set decorator.

The set team ultimately decided to build the entire interior of the home in the gymnasium of New Trier High School, also in Winnetka. At that time, there were few film studios in Chicago, and John Hughes lived north of the city. “Filming in an empty high school meant we were in close proximity to his family,” explains Cauley. “He could visit the sets easily or stop in and see filming, and then go home and write.” Ferris Bueller’s Day Off and Uncle Buck were also filmed in Chicago.

Curating the Rich, Lived-In Interiors

In the film, Kevin sets elaborate traps in order to catch the burglars attempting to break into his home.

The only way to describe the interior of the Home Alone house is to compare it to a Norman Rockwell painting, which is precisely the aesthetic Cauley was going for. “I thought about what look would best represent Americana, and of course, Norman Rockwell came to mind,” Cauley says.

Like Rockwell, Cauley used saturated greens, reds, and golds to stand out against the white fluffy snow. “I thought of it like a flip-book, where use of color orchestrated throughout would give the film a warm feeling,” says Cauley. She also found inspiration from historic Christmas cards.

Cauley had about six weeks to bring the McCallister family home to life. “I love selecting and finding decor that builds a character, or when collaged together, supports a story visually,” she says.

When asked how she sourced such rich fabrics, wallpapers, and carpets, Cauley shared her best-kept secret. “I also do some residential interior design, so I have trade accounts at some stores,” she says. “John Hughes wanted a timeless traditional look, so I went to brands with that look, within my color palette.”

The Finishing Touches

Catherine O’Hara as Kate McCallister in Home Alone

With every rewatch of Home Alone, you may start to pick up on little details you never noticed before, and that was Cauley’s intention. “I put personal character details about the house as clutter that might not ever be noticed but felt right to me,” she says. “I had a little book about the care and feeding of spiders on the kitchen counter, as if perhaps Buzz was reading it, put it down when he went to the kitchen to get a snack, got distracted and ran off, leaving the book there.”

She also laid out holiday wrapping paper in the primary bedroom, as if Kevin’s parents, Kate and Peter McCallister, were wrapping Christmas gifts but didn’t have time to clean it up. It’s these little details that all come together to create the thoughtful, curated set fit for this celebrated holiday movie.

The admiration for Home Alone is still going strong decades later, and it was on full display recently when Macaulay Culkin received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame . Catherine O’Hara, who played the role of Kevin’s mom, gave an emotional speech at the celebration and concluded with an iconic line from the film: “I just wanna say, merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.”

Here's Where You Can Visit The House From Home Alone

For all of the "Home Alone" fans who want to personally visit the house connected with the 1990 classic film, the time may be now. And as  House Beautiful  reports, this Winnetka, Illinois property is widely considered to be an art and real estate attraction for film fans. As IMBd notes, Chris Columbus directed the film, and John Hughes wrote the film. Stars include Macaulay Culkin, Joe Pesci, and Daniel Stern. Given the film's 1990 release, cinematic spin-offs, and ubiquity during the 1990s, it stands to reason that many visitors and fans are members of the Millennial generation. The Pew Research Center defines Millennials as people who were born between 1981 to 1996. But, while scores of fans whose childhoods reflected the 1990s imagined themselves as protagonist Kevin McAllister, played by actor Macaulay Culkin, these contemporary adults can physically visit the brick and shuttered two-story home made famous by this film provided that they are willing to travel to the Midwest.

According to Trip Advisor , many people do visit the home. In fact, visiting the "Home Alone" house currently holds the top spot on a list of 12 noteworthy things to do in the general Winnetka, Illinois area. Additional preferred activities include visits to lagoons, woods, parks, a natural trail, and boating. In the Winnetka community, the "Home Alone" house is considered both a point of interest and a landmark, as Trip Advisor reports. 

About the home and area

With respect to the "Home Alone" house, the structure is indeed an architectural beauty. This two-story house boasts different lovely elements, including a striped, red brick exterior with complementary deep-toned shutters and crisp, white trim details. In front of the house, lush landscaping includes trees, shrubs, and flowers. This landscaping leads up to a multi-step entryway linking the pavement to space before the detailed home door. The property is also enclosed by a gate and physically located at 671 Lincoln Avenue in Winnetka, IL 60093, per Trip Advisor .

For many locals, the village of Winnetka holds reverence for a variety of reasons. In particular, Winnetka is appreciated because the village hugs Lake Michigan's North Shore, enabling waterfront access, as the Village of Winnetka explained. Additionally, the village includes tree-dotted streets, sandy beaches, well-regarded schools, and parks and recreational facilities. With an 1869 founding date, the town also holds a name derived from a Native American word that reportedly translates to beautiful land.

Inside the real 'Home Alone' house – and its jaw-dropping value

The 1990 hit movie saw macaulay culkin play kevin mccallister.

The hit 1990 movie  'Home Alone' has become part of many families' Christmas traditions, and not only did it make a star of Macaulay Culkin , but also the iconic red-brick Georgian-Colonial house that was home to the fictional McCallister family. 

The stunning residence is a real home located in Winnetka, Illinois, about 20 miles from Chicago, and at the time, it was owned by the Abendshien family, who relocated to a makeshift apartment on the second floor of their house during filming. 

While the exterior of the property was used in the movie, many of the interior shots were filmed on a purpose-built, two-story set inside the gym of an abandoned school, New Trier Township High School, located in the town. 

However, the famous, red-carpeted staircase that young Kevin McCallister sledded down before shooting out of the front door, and the living room, were shot inside the real home.

"We needed to cast a house that would work for the stunts and also a house that was visually appealing and, if this makes sense, warm and menacing at the same time," director Chris Columbus said in 2015. 

"It's the kind of house if you were a kid, it would be fun to be left home alone," he added. 

Inside the real 'Home Alone' house

Located at 671 Lincoln Avenue in Winnetka, Illinois, the 'Home Alone' house boasts 10 bedrooms and six bathrooms across 5,398 square feet of space and just over half an acre of land, according to Zillow . 

In May 2011, fans got a proper look inside when the Abendshien family put the house on the market for $2.4 million, a huge increase from the $800,000 Cynthia and John Abendshien paid for the property back in 1998. 

At the time, real-estate agent Marissa Hopkins – who worked with the Abendshiens on the sale – posted a YouTube video showing off the interiors in all their glory. Check out the video below...

"It looks different than the fans might expect (i.e. no plaid wallpaper)… but that's Hollywood! " Hopkins told Insider . "The images depicted at the time I sold the house, were how the house looked when it was filmed," she added. 

One noticeable difference between the interior of the real house and the ' Home Alone'  one is the lack of red and green painted walls and furniture, a design choice that gained popularity following the film's release. 

"There were no saturated green or red upholstered furniture sold in stores. Not one piece," ' Home Alone ' set decorator, Eve Cauley told AD . 

"A red dining room became the in-style trend of the 1990s. My decor and wall-covering choices for Home Alone changed the color palette of the nation for the upcoming decade," she added. 

How much is the house worth? 

The $2.4 million asking price proved to be too hefty a price tag for the famous home as four months after it went on the market, the Abendshiens lowered the asking price to $1.995 million. 

Again, there were no takers, but the house eventually sold in 2012 for $1.585 million although the current owners are not known. According to Zillow , the luxury mansion is today worth over a whopping $2.3 million! 

Visiting the 'Home Alone' house 

For decades fans of the movie have traveled to Winnetka to see the 'Home Alone' house in person and snap pictures of the exterior, and it is a particularly popular destination around Christmas. 

"We would have not believed back then that there would be sightseers coming to look at that house for years afterward,"  John Abendshien previously told Vanity Fair.  

As the home is currently occupied and not available for sale or rent, the only way to get inside is if you know the owners. However, back in 2021, Airbnb  offered fans a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to stay at the real-life McCallister home. 

The lucky guests were treated to Chicago's finest pizza, a candlelit dinner of microwavable Kraft Mac & Cheese, and set up booby traps for potential intruders.

This Is What the Real Home Alone House Interiors Looks Like

Step inside the iconic residence at 671 Lincoln Ave.

Three decades after it premiered, Home Alone remains a beloved classic Christmas movie . Since the film used exterior shots of an actual colonial redbrick Georgian in Illinois, fans can actually visit the of the home that Kevin McCallister protected from burglars after his family accidentally left him behind. But if you've ever wondered what the interior of the real residence at 671 Lincoln Ave. looks like, the video below takes you inside the iconic home.

When the home hit the market in 2011, realtor Marissa Hopkins uploaded a video tour of it, showing the inside of the home and short interviews with John and Cynthia Abendshien, the owners at the time. After hesitating to touch the door knob a the start of the video in a cheeky nod to one of Kevin McCallister's traps, Hopkins smiles and says, "It's okay; they're expecting us." She then shows a montage of images of the inside of the home.

While most of the movie's interior shots were filmed in a set built inside of a high school gym , shots of the living room and the grand staircase of the actual home were featured in the film, Vanity Fair reports . Outside, the team built an outdoor stairway to the basement—the one that Marv, played by Daniel Stern, slips down in the film. They also erected the treehouse and installed a zip line.

The team also tweaked the home's interior, hanging up new wallpaper, according to Vanity Fai r. Unfortunately, the staircase in the foyer wasn't suitable for sledding—"so they built a ramp over our staircase," Cynthia says in the video. Kevin used that ramp to sled down the stairs and right out the front door.

If you've watched the movie for the millionth time and want a more immersive experience of the McCallister home, there's a Home Alone-themed Airbnb in Dallas, complete with the traps that Kevin used to protect his home.

Visit the Home Alone House in Winnetka

It’s hard to believe that the Home Alone movie opened in theaters over 30 years ago. The 1990s hit is still a beloved movie that plays in homes every year during Christmas. With so much success, the Home Alone house in Winnetka still gets sightseers today. While you can’t tour the home, as it’s a personal residence, the home conjures up warm memories for everyone that sees it. Many who visit recreate the Kevin McAllister scream (the 8-year-old’s famous scene when he puts aftershave on his face).

The film was written and produced by John Hughes (who grew up in Chicago’s North Shore), and directed by Chris Columbus who later said that finding a house to fit his vision was not an easy task:

“We needed to cast a house that would work for the stunts and also a house that was visually appealing and, if this makes sense, warm and menacing at the same time. It’s the kind of house if you were a kid it would be fun to be left home alone… I wanted it to feel timeless.”

View this post on Instagram Home Alone 🏠 📍Winnetka, Illinois A post shared by Travel Insider Magazine (@travelinsider) on Apr 17, 2020 at 1:56pm PDT

The sprawling Georgian 1920s home features beautiful red brick and is mostly unchanged from the movie on the exterior, except for an iron fence that surrounds the property. However, the interior has made several upgrades since the movie.

Here’s a look at then and now.

The 4,242 square-foot home features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms and sold in 2012 for $1.585 million, a drop from the original asking price of $2.4 million. Old man Marley’s house from across the street also fared well after the success of the movie. It sold for $3 million in 2003.

‘Home Alone’ House Is Listed for $5.25M After a Serious Renovation—but Is It an Improvement?

A dozen years after it was last on the market, the famous “ Home Alone ” house is up for sale.

Listed at $5.25 million, the 16-room stunner served as the setting for the 1990 classic holiday movie in which Macaulay Culkin portrayed Kevin McCallister , a clever kid who’s accidentally left behind by his vacationing family and forced to outwit a pair of bumbling burglars.

Though it might be far from the Hollywood Hills, the 9,126-square-foot Winnetka, IL , home has received a starlet-worthy makeover. And while the stately brick facade probably looks familiar, the interior—renovated and expanded in 2018—would leave the whole McCallister family gobsmacked by its transformation.

In addition to its updated interior, the house boasts an ideal location in an upscale suburb along Chicago’s North Shore, along Lake Michigan.

“The community is known for great schools, wonderful beaches, parks, and a cute town with shops and restaurants,” says real estate agent Cara Ameer , who got married in this vicinity and knows the area well. “It’s really an idyllic place to raise a family and for kids to grow up in. Winnekta is easily accessible by commuter train to get to downtown Chicago, so that is also a huge plus, in addition to a short drive from Northwestern and Loyola Universities.”

So will this ideally situated piece of pop culture fetch its asking price?

“The house is well priced for its size and condition,” Ameer says of the current price tag. “The celebrity factor of this home, being featured in a such a popular and legendary movie, also adds to the overall value. It is one of those homes people will want to drive by to see if they know the movie and the area where it was filmed.”

Real estate agent Jason Gelios believes there’s a good chance the home might even sell for over list price.

“Any time you have a famous name or movie associated with a property, it affects the value in a positive way,” he says. “The only way a property associated with someone famous would not sell for asking price would be if the property is distressed or in horrible shape. This often causes the property to sell for less than desired, no matter who is associated with the property.”

Luckily, that’s not a problem with the “Home Alone” house, which has received a remarkable transformation.

Sam Fitz-Simon , a real estate agent in San Francisco, predicts, “I would expect to see the home sell for a premium to an investor that views it more like an art piece, than a home.”

Inside the ‘Home Alone’ house makeover

Let’s take a look at how this Georgian residence, built in 1921, has evolved since it graced the silver screen in the beloved John Hughes film.

While you might remember the famous staircase where wily Kevin foils the men who’ve broken into his home, you probably won’t recognize it now.

The entryway has changed significantly, too, from elaborate wallpaper to a cleaner white-on-white look.

The home’s new owners also decided to ditch the wallpaper in the bedrooms and give these sleep spaces a modern, luxury-hotel aesthetic.

The McCallisters’ cozy kitchen now features double islands, bespoke white cabinetry, and a hidden pantry, as well as an eight-burner Wolf range and an integrated Sub-Zero fridge. It’s fair to say Kevin could make a lot more than macaroni and cheese here.

The dining room looks a lot bigger and brighter without those burgundy walls and that behemoth china cabinet.

The renovated home also boasts several new features the McCallister kiddos would have loved. The lower level now includes a state-of-the-art, indoor sports court with a true three-point line.

It’s only fitting that the home includes a theater, too.

Who wouldn’t mind being left “home alone” here? Perhaps it’s time for the updated property to star in the next installment.

Can You Visit the Home Alone House This Winter?

By: Author The Drivin' & Vibin' Team

Posted on November 12, 2021

What do you know about the Home Alone house? Have you ever thought about visiting it? 

Maybe this winter is the perfect time for a road trip to explore Home Alone filming locations. 

Read on to find out more about the Home Alone franchise and where the house is located.

Let’s go!

About the Home Alone Movies

Home Alone is a 1990 Christmas movie about an eight-year-old boy accidentally left at home as his family travels for the Holidays. While he’s home alone, he ends up protecting his home from burglars. 

The comedy was a hit. Due to this, a sequel was filmed in 1992, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. The sequel starred the original cast and received mixed reviews. 

Over time, three more sequels have been released: Home Alone 3 in 1997, Home Alone 4: Taking Back the House in 2002, and Home Alone: The Holiday Heist in 2012. Subsequently, Home Alone four and five were made-for-television. 

And, in fact, there’s a sixth one, Home Sweet Home Alone, coming out today! 

Where Is the Home Alone House?

In the first Home Alone movie, the house is the main set. It’s the place where Kevin uses aftershave for the first time, sleds down the stairs, and fights off burglars. Therefore, it is a central figure of the film.

The Home Alone house is an actual three-story single-family home built in the 1920s. It’s about 20 minutes outside of Chicago, Illinois, in a lovely residential neighborhood called the North Shore Village.

Location: 672 Lincoln Ave, Winnetka, Illinois 

Pro Tip: After exploring the Home Alone House in Chicago, cruise down Route 66! Make sure to stop and do these 9 Best Things To Do on Route 66 in Illinois.

Can You Visit the Home Alone House?

Although you can drive to the house, it’s privately owned and closed to the public. However, you can take a selfie right outside. It looks the same as it did in the movie, except for an iron fence. 

In the movie, you get to go inside nearly all the rooms in the house, but in reality, only a few things were filmed on location. Scenes such as the exterior, central staircase, basement, attic, and 1st-floor landing are all from the house.

Everything else was filmed on a soundstage on the west campus of New Trier High School in Northfield. 

So how do you get to experience the Home Alone House? Keep reading to find out. 

Can You Stay the Night at the Home Alone House?

Although you can’t stay in the actual Home Alone House, you can stay in a Home Alone-themed Airbnb ! Yep! It’s a private duplex for Home Alone fans in Dallas, Texas.

First, you can watch classic VHS movies on an old-school TV and play ping pong. Likewise, if you’re feeling hungry have a cheese pizza delivered to your door (courtesy of the hosts.)

And that’s not all! Finally, the rental is set up just like Kevin had it with hanging paint cans, toy cars on the floor, and the Michael Jordan cardboard cutout. In fact, the toiletries are vintage packaging from the 90s.

How fun is that?
