And the building, though not bedecked in Christmas lights and decorations, is instantly recognisable.
Agents have billed the ultimate piece of movie history as: 'Classic residence offers timeless and inspired family living.
The property has a four-room master suite, a stunning forest inspired dining area and the notorious attic bedroom where Kevin had to spend the night with his bed-wetting cousin in the film.
Magical: The dining room looks like it could star in a Peter Jackson film
All white: The home has been given a makeover since it was used in the 1990 hit
Grand: The opulence is reflected throughout the property, there's even a piano room
