10 Movie Houses We Would Love To Live In

We wouldn't mind calling these movie pads our home.

We might not be willing to spend $2.3 million on Cameron’s house from Ferris Bueller’s Day Off (that is unless it came with the Ferrari too), but here are 10 other movie houses that we wouldn’t mind calling home.

***Note with the housing market what it is, these are our best guess at the cost of the houses***

Pee-Wee’s Playhouse (Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure)

Cost: According to Family Guy it costs $20,000 to create a Pee-Wee room.
Why We Love It: The ridiculous lawn ornaments might bring down property value, but waking up every morning to the breakfast machine is all we could ever want … As long as Pee-Wee isn’t around to scare the crap out of us.

Tri-Lam House (Revenge of the Nerds)

Cost: Some pocket protectors and pie tins covered in whip cream would buy this house.
Why We Love It: Sure, it started off looking kind of rough, but all it took was a bunch of nerds and one snazzy ‘80s montage and it was move-in ready.

Beetle Juice’s House

Cost: A house like this in E. Corinth Vermont goes for about $400K.
Why We Love It: It’s cool and modern, and has the ghost of Alec Baldwin inside of it. Plus, it’s in Vermont so we get to enjoy all the pancakes we could ever imagine.

Panic Room House

Cost: $500K+ for the panic room itself.
Why We Love It: The house is a standard two-story affair, but the ultra-secure panic-room is a must for all you paranoid freaks out there. Throw a home theater in there and it would be a great way to escape your kids.

Blank Check Mansion


Cost: For the house $300K, but to pimp it out with everything, a cool $1 million at least.
Why We Love It: We might only be able to afford living here for a week or so, but it would be one awesome week using the sumo ring, go-cart track, swimming pool and a virtual reality room.

Country Side Estate (The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe)

Cost: A house similar in the English countryside runs for 3 million pounds.
Why We Love It: The old man stink might take a while to get rid of, but having a wardrobe that takes you to another dimension where you can become a king or queen is more than enough reason to drop in on this house. We totally count that other dimension as extra square footage.

Bruce Wayne’s Penthouse (The Dark Knight)

Cost: Since Gotham city doesn’t exist we found the closest thing to it for $70 million in NYC.
Why We Love It: A pad like this is pricey, even without the bat cave portion, but that’s the allure of living in a posh penthouse. It’s going to cost extra if you want a space in the garage for your bat mobile or you want your own Alfred.

Tony Stark’s Mansion (Iron Man)

Cost: Is crapload a number?
Why We Love It: It’s a computerized house that sits on a cliff overlooking the ocean. Plus, it’s packed to the top with awesome gadgets. We would probably only know how to use about 10% of them, but it would still be a great place to show off for a date.

Parkwood Estate (Billy Madison)

Cost: It’s a historic site now, so you would need to shell out a ton of dollar bills to live here.
Why We Love It: Anyone would love to live in this mansion, but if we’re shelling out the big bucks for this place, it better come with Billy’s tent still standing in the yard and our own Norm MacDonald passed out by the pool.

Hatfield House (Tomb Raider)

Cost: You pretty much need to be royalty or you’re out of luck.
Why We Love It: When we are done walking around the immense landscapes of this mansion we would head straight to the training facility, built with its very own “Danger Room.” That’s what we currently call our office kitchen since so many people seem to get hurt in there.

The arch drug dealer's mansion that's perched on the edge of Iguazu Falls, down in Bolivia.

i fell in love with the house in Stepmom, a gorgeous family mansion affair in New England, complete with loft bedrooms, sweeping staircases, a country kitchen, fireplaces, canopy beds, trees with stunning foliage and a tree swing.

How about Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters? Along with gothic-style and an upstate New York address, you'd get your own Danger Room, Cerebro and Blackbird launching pad.

I loved the brick house in Home Alone in the Chicago suburbs. Also, the house on the beach in Sleeping with the Enemy. And how about the mansion in Flowers in the Attic.

I would definitely go for the Ghostbusters Firehall, I wonder how much that would run.
House from "The Game"
on May 28, 2009
I would have included the mansion from the Michael Douglas/David Fincher thriller, "The Game". I loved the long driveway with the circlar pebbled parking area surrounding the old founatin. It looked so like old money, and just stately. I would feel like a vip just hanging around the house in a shorts and t-shirt.

How could you not include Whipstaff Manor? Say what you will about the Casper film, but Whipstaff is the coolest, creepiest, most interesting movie house I've ever seen. I'm sure it'd be between 1 and 2 million dollars, but as long as it came with the Lazarus pit and two or three wisecracking ghosts, it'd be worth it.

Three personal choices: (1) Tara in "Gone with the Wind" (2) The penthouse apartment of Willard Whyte (Jimmy Dean) in "Diamonds Are Forever" (3) Dr. No's underground lair in "Dr. No" (even though, strictly speaking, nos. 2 and 3 are not houses, but who cares?)

I completely discount this list on the sole basis that you did not include the Van Horne mansion from The Witches of Eastwick or the witch's "cottage" from Practical Magic.
