The original Home Alone house is for sale. The famously burglar-proof (or perhaps not) house from the iconic Home Alone movies is up for sale in Winnetka, Illinois for the price of $2.4 million.

The house was a big part of the central storyline of the Home Alone movies, in which actor Macaulay Culkin famously kicked some major burglar butt as Kevin McCallister. For $2.4 million, you not only get to live in a slice of [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mulholland) history, but you can also enjoy the home's three baths and four bedrooms. There's also a screened-in porch outfitted with a chandelier for enjoying temperate afternoons.

Would you live in the Home Alone house? I think I'd be too scared of burglars to fully relax.
