The house from A Christmas Story is too big to put under the tree, but you can buy it now anyway
The Cleveland house, which now makes up part of a larger A Christmas Story museum, is up for sale
It can be tough to pick out Christmas presents, but one surefire option is to just be rich enough to buy your loved ones a house from a holiday movie. Fortunately for all wealthy gift seekers, a very good option in this classic gift category has just been made available: The house from A Christmas Story.
Yahoo!’s Raechal Shewfelt writes that the real-world Parker house, which was built in Cleveland in 1895, is up for sale through a local real estate firm just ahead of its sequel’s release. The place is apparently expensive enough that its seller hasn’t listed a price and potential buyers will need to “be prepared to explain why they’d want the piece of movie history” when putting in an offer. Owning the cinematic ideal of a regular American family home will also require buyers to provide information about their “background” and “their finances.”
