25 years later, 'Home Alone' house is unrecognizable



The '90s blockbuster hits "Home Alone" and "Home Alone 2" are synonymous with the holiday season, which is unofficially underway.

That red brick house, located at 671 Lincoln Ave., in Winnetka, Illinois, is easily recognizable on TV screens decades later, but what about behind closed doors?

The four-bedroom, four-bathroom mini-mansion was sold in 2012 for $1.595 million and has been significantly remodeled throughout the years.

The green tile kitchen countertops and floor-to-ceiling floral wallpaper are a thing of the past.

From the master bedroom to the kitchen where Kevin McCallister realized he was "home alone," several rooms bear no resemblance to the originals that so many of us came to know.

Here's a look inside, then and now:

AND WHO COULD FORGET...




The Little Nero's pizza boy!

Have you watched "Home Alone" this season? Tell us what your all-time favorite holiday movie is!

Oh, and the statue out front that the pizza boy from Little Nero's kept knocking over with his car? Just a prop.
