CHICOPEE, Mass. (WWLP) - A study was conducted to find which Christmas movies had the most expensive houses. The data was reviewed by cinchhomeservices.com which created a list of 100 U.S. homes featured in Christmas movies sourced from IMDb. A custom Zillow Home Index Value was then created for each address that compiled the average home prices in that neighborhood. A look at Toys for Tots inside 22News If you guessed the McCallister house from Home Alone, it ranked No. 1 with an average house price in the Lincoln Avenue neighborhood of Winnetka, Illinois for $1,565,804. The Georgian-style mansion is located within 20 miles north of Chicago. It features approximately 4,250 square feet, with three floors, a spacious attic, five bedrooms, and four bathrooms.   The second house that ranked as the most expensive was from Die Hard at just over $1.4 million. In the movie, Nakatomi Plaza was the fictional name of the Fox Plaza, a high-rise building in Los Angeles, California. The location is a key business hub called Centruy City which is one of the most sought-after locations for office space.   Three New York City apartments were tied for third with an average cost of $1.25 million.

Expensive homes provide a backdrop that enhances the visual appeal of holiday decorations, glowing Christmas trees, and cozy, festive settings. Many Christmas movies are designed to create a world that feels magical or extraordinary, and larger, more luxurious homes help to establish that fantasy world," a spokesperson from Cinch Home Services said.
