After being on the market for several months, the famous and iconic Home Alone mansion has finally been sold for a festive price of $5 million.

The iconic Home Alone house, known and loved by many from the beloved Christmas film, has recently been taken off the market. Just in time for the festive season, a lucky buyer has snagged the mansion, which was used as the McCallister family home in both Home Alone and its sequel, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. The exterior of the Illinois property still looks much like it did in the films, and it's no surprise that it garnered a lot of attention when it was put up for sale in May for the hefty price of $5,250,000. However, it seems that the offer has now been accepted and the sale is pending, according to the listing on the Coldwell Banker Realty website.

The five bedroom, six bathroom house, built in 1921, has been described as a "legendary holiday dream home reimagined for modern-day luxury." With a total of 9,126 square feet, this stunning property underwent a full renovation in 2018, preserving the original structure and charm while adding modern touches. The foyer, entrance staircase, dining room, and living room are just a few of the areas that have been kept true to their original form.

One of the newer additions to the mansion is a sunny family room, which compliments the double island kitchen and wood-burning fireplace. The house also features a three-car garage, patio, and backyard. Upstairs, the master suite boasts a fireplace, walk-in wardrobe, and marble spa bath, while the house also includes a fully-equipped gym, cinema room, and indoor sports court. It's safe to say that we wouldn't mind spending Christmas in this amazing house.

Located in the Winnetka area of Chicago, the Home Alone house has garnered a lot of attention, with over 70,000 views on the property listing. However, not all of these views may be potential buyers, as the inside of the house looks quite different from the films. The neutral dark wood floors and absence of Kevin McCallister's booby traps are a clear indication of this.

Interestingly, the actor who played Kevin McCallister, Macaulay Culkin, had considered buying the house for himself. During a screening of the movie at Illinois' Rosemont Theater, he joked about turning it into a fun house where people could sled down the stairs, just like his character does in the first film. However, he ultimately decided against it, citing his busy life as a father to his two sons with fellow actor Brenda Song.

Speaking of his sons, it seems that even his three-year-old, Dakota, is a fan of the film and believes that he is Kevin McCallister himself. However, Macaulay quickly sets him straight and reminds him that it was actually him in the film. It's clear that the Home Alone house holds a special place in the hearts of many, and we can only imagine the amazing memories that will be made in its new ownership.
