You can’t talk about this house without talking about the Wet Bandits. Let’s be honest: Harry and Marv were terrible at their jobs, but great for property value. They only broke the porch windows and a few figurines. Mostly, they just got hit in the face by irons and BB guns. The house itself? It’s practically a fortress now—with an updated insulation, a new roof, and probably a very expensive alarm system.
I bet the current owners have a security company that specifically mentions, “No, we don’t install motion-sensor BB guns.” They probably get a lot of fans. Like, a lot of fans. Imagine trying to have a quiet Saturday morning, mowing the lawn, when a car pulls up and a dad yells, “KEVIN!” That’s your new life. But hey, at least you’ll never be lonely.
The Real Floor Plan
Let’s break down the layout like you’re planning a heist. The front door is iconic, but the foyer is smaller than you think. The living room? Where Kevin’s mom (Catherine O'Hara) panics? It’s actually spacious, but the furniture placement is weirdly specific. You’d have to fight the urge to put a life-sized cardboard cutout of Uncle Frank in the corner.
The real prize is the upstairs bathroom. That’s where the legendary scream scene happened.

It’s now a perfectly normal bathroom with a shower, which is good because no one wants to recreate that scene literally. But if you do buy it, you have to practice the scream in the mirror at least once. It’s the law.
