A $695,500 ‘Home Alone’ house lookalike is for sale in Louisville

The house in Winnetka, IL that served as the eponymous “home” in the 1990 movie “Home Alone” is on the market.

The 5-bed, 6-bath house has been completely remodeled since little Kevin fended off the “wet bandits” with his trapmaking skills, and it’s currently going for $5.25 million.

But if you’d like to live your best Macaulay Culkin life without leaving LOU, and for a fraction of the price, we’ve found a house right here in Derby City that bears a striking resemblance to the McCallister residence — complete with an entryway staircase you can fill with holiday hustle and bustle.

The balcony at the top of the stairs is practically made for yelling “I’m living alone!

The $695,000 red brick house, located off Poplar Level Road, has 5 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms, plus a home theater, a rec room, and a family room — so there’s plenty of room to host cousins Buzz, Fuller, Linnie, Sondra, and Brooke.

The formal dining room, plus the fully enclosed sun porch, are the perfect place to hold a pre-holiday pizza party — just make sure everyone is accounted for afterwards.

It’s the perfect spot to spill some soda watch the local urban legend.

If you share Kevin’s fear of basements, have no fear. There’s no sign of demonic furnaces in this house, just an attached two-car garage with a second laundry room.

Bonus: Louisville’s McCallister house is located within walking distance of the Louisville Zoo, so you can really say Merry Christmas, ya filthy animals.”
