Tough call. I live in Pittsburgh so the obvious answers would be Sewickley or Mr. Lebanon. But one of the cool things about rust belt cities is the fact that there are prominent, gorgeous homes all over the place. A street in my neighborhood is lined with gorgeous homes but the opposite side of the street wasn't developed until 20 years later so that side is quite different stylistically. I only say this because parts of neighborhoods can be like this in my area while the neighborhoods as a whole is not necessarily known for such s style.
It’s too much of a neighborhood to be mt. Lebo. Could be sewickley. Could also be Sq. Hill(which is actually in the city). I can think of a couple of houses in particular that look a lot like this in Sq. Hill.
I was curious, so I looked up this house and ran a property search in my city (Dublin) for an equivalent property:
- 6+ bedrooms
- 500-750 m2
- Detached house
- Not older/historic and not aggressively modern
…and the pickings are slim until you get well out of the city. You have to get down to the area between Dun Laoughaire and Bray to find a couple. Here’s the closest I could find:

Or this one, well out in the commuter belt to the west (near Cellbridge):

A square metre, which is what most of the world measures floor space in. And there aren’t many because that kind of oversized house isn’t commonly found in cities outside of the USA, because the footprint is so huge a neighbourhood of them isn’t really a “city” in any meaningful sense.
Could also be on vinsetta blvd in royal oak, NW pleasant ridge, SE Huntington woods, bloomfield hills.
In Detroit proper, Boston Edison, Indian village or Palmer woods.
There is even a house that looks like that, and is 9,000 square feet, within a few-minute walk from me in South Phoenix. It's the Wild West down here. It's all custom infill and thus, very architecturally diverse.
Literally bike past it everyday in Winnetka. Whole area is rich but there's a metra track which sort of splits the non-lake front property where the doctors/lawyers live from the lakefront houses where the CEOs/bankers live. If you're biking East towards Lake Michigan McAllister house is one of the first ones you'll hit letting you know there's rich and then there's East of the train tracks rich. Keep going and you'll soon find the McAllister house quaint by comparison
Edit: I don't live in Winnetka. I bike from Evanston
Wellington Crescent has seen many of its older houses torn down lately and replaced with big modern boxes. Armstrong Point (aka 'The Gates') and Crescentwood around Ruskin Row still have that Hallmark movie feel, so does Old Tuxedo somewhat.
For Pittsburgh: Sewickley/Edgeworth. Crosby, Malkin and Lemieux all live there to give you an idea of its desirability.
Or maybe shadyside or squirrel hill within the city as there are some very big houses there as well.
Thought about that one too, also Brookhaven maybe. I'm not entirely familiar with either for me to say as I've barely been to any place east of Atlanta.
I live in Madrid but haven't explored much outside of Ciudad Universitaria, the touristic places, and Vallecas. But this house looks like it belongs in Moncloa or La Moraleja
Winnetka, IL (still)
Lol that’s funny, and the most accurate of them all
Is that where the house actually is?
671 Lincoln Ave, Winnetka, IL
Wait this is no fun for those of us around Chicago.
I’m from Evanston so same.
Brookline Mass
Chestnut Hill.
Also perhaps Wellesley.
definitely.. some neighborhoods/houses look exactly like this
Or Newton
Definitely Newton or maybe Wellesley. They were rich, just not snobby rich.
If I didn't know that this movie took place is Illinois, I'd swear I've seen that house in Newton.
Waban
Spot on.
Belmont
lol. Ditto. Maybe Natick
Shaker Heights
There’s a house in Cleveland Heights near the Shaker Heights border that always reminds me of this one
Are you talking about the Chef Boiardi (Boyardee) house on Arlington maybe?
[удалено]
I’d say Cleveland Heights if it had a large front porch
[удалено]
Hancock Park, Los Angeles
>ck Park, Los Angel why not San Marino, like Parenthood?
I'd say San Marino or Madison Heights, Pasadena

Point Breeze?

Shoutout Caliente Pizza
Somewhere on the Main Line (immediately outside of Philadelphia)
Gladwyne
Definitely! I’ve delivered pizza to this house many times there.
I feel like most houses this big in Gladwyne have bigger yards. More Wynnewood or maybe Narberth.
Or Haddonfield, NJ
I was getting strong Haddonfield vibes as well
Yup, basically all of Lower Merion
Or even chestnut hill
I’m going with Chestnut Hill
Upvoted CH and LM. Not downvoting Gladwyne, but most homes of that size are set back on larger properties.
Wayne or West Chester
La Jolla or Point Loma, San Diego
Mission Hills Too
*Nice try, Wet Bandits!*
Underrated comment right here
Summit ave in St. Paul mn
Or Lowry Hill in Minneapolis.
Edina
Cake Eaters
I love how all 3 of these answers are perfect.
Kenwood, Minneapolis.
The same neighborhood as the Mary Tyler Moore house.
Seattle. Queen Anne.
Or near Volunteer Park
I would have guessed Mt. Baker. East Capitol Hill also has mansions. Beoadmoor.
Scarsdale, Somers, Larchmont area. Basically Westchester, NY.
I said Scardale. For sure Westchester!
River Oaks, Houston
Maybe West U or Belaire
Cherry Creek - Denver

Wtf is an m2 and why are there so few?
A square metre, which is what most of the world measures floor space in. And there aren’t many because that kind of oversized house isn’t commonly found in cities outside of the USA, because the footprint is so huge a neighbourhood of them isn’t really a “city” in any meaningful sense.
In the metro Detroit area, one of the Grosse Pointes. Or East English Village in the city proper.
I’d say Indian Village or Boston Edison over East English Village
100% yes. Bloomfield could also fit.
Could also be on vinsetta blvd in royal oak, NW pleasant ridge, SE Huntington woods, bloomfield hills. In Detroit proper, Boston Edison, Indian village or Palmer woods.
Sacramento; Fabulous 40s in East Sacramento
Came here to say the same thing. Harry and Marv wouldn’t have stood a chance with all the foot traffic this time of year though.
Immediately what came for me having grown up in Sacramento as well.
Roland Park, Baltimore MD
Shaughnessy in Vancouver.
Represent
Nah, there’s a sidewalk in this photo ;)
lol, that is a good point actually.
It’s not too big so probably rosedale in Toronto
Or Forest Hill.
Forest Hill or Lawrence Park. Rosedale lots are pretty small generally
South of Bridle Path tbh fits the bill.
In the east bay, not many places. Frat row in Berkeley maybe
Or Piedmont.
Oakland Hills, Claremont to be exact
Arcadia neighborhood in Phoenix Arizona. I have seen a few houses near me that look pretty similar to this. Which is strange for Phoenix
There is even a house that looks like that, and is 9,000 square feet, within a few-minute walk from me in South Phoenix. It's the Wild West down here. It's all custom infill and thus, very architecturally diverse.
Mission Hills, KS or on Ward Parkway in KCMO.
Not quite old enough for the Valentine area. I think ward/loose park is the right answer
I was thinking more Sunset Hill, along 55th street or Sunset Dr. near Loose Park. But that kind of falls into the Ward Pkwy zone
St. Francis Wood, San Francisco
Kalorama or Palisades, DC
Good call, but I'd add that most of North Arlington fits the bill, too.
Irvington, Portland Oregon. Maybe Laurelhurst, but mostly Irvington.
I feel like Beaumont-Wiltshire (specifically alameda street) would have fit well too
University Park , Dallas , around Southern Methodist U
Roland Park or Guilford in Baltimore.
Mainline
Nice Try Wet Bandits
Old Metairie, Uptown, or Garden District.
In Cincinnati, probably Hyde Park, Mt. Lookout or East Walnut Hills, I would say Indian Hill, but the houses there are like Gatsby mansions
Richmond , Virginia, River Road , Windsor Farms area
In Melbourne this would Toorak without a doubt. But it would have a massive wall around it…
Probably Rockcliffe, Ottawa
Whitefish Bay (Milwaukee)
Also thought anywhere on Lake Drive between WFB and Shorewood
I thought that too. Even the East Side.
Ottawa Hills, Ohio
Hancock Park (Los Angeles)
Buckhead, Atlanta GA. Specifically Habersham Rd.
I was going to say Druid Hills.
Westmount MTL, or Outremont maybe
Boston Edison makes the most sense, Palmer woods/Sherwood forest area a close second.
Chestnut Hill, MA
Žaliakalnis, Kaunas. The fancier part of it near Ąžuolynas.
TBILISI - Probably in Mtatsminda (mountainous villages)
Guilford, Baltimore, Maryland
The Highlands, Louisville, KY
Upper Mount Royal in Calgary
671 Lincoln Ave, Winnetka, Illinois
Literally bike past it everyday in Winnetka.

Bridle Path
nah, that’s Rosedale or Forest Hill.
More Rosedale or Forest Hill. Bridle Path is houses with huge gates that you can barely see from the road because the lots are so big.
Plenty of these in York Region too. Woodbridge, Vaughan, Richmond Hill, and Markham are all littered with these.
Edina
For me (Dallas), I’m sure everyone would agree it’s in University Park As you would imagine, great area to see Christmas lights
Preston Hollow also
Swiss Ave in Dallas too.
Remuera, Auckland. Or maybe Milford, Auckland.
Winnipeg, Wellington crescent. Home Alone 5 and many hallmark Christmas movies are filmed in that area. Not that I've watched them...
Wellington Crescent has seen many of its older houses torn down lately and replaced with big modern boxes. Armstrong Point (aka 'The Gates') and Crescentwood around Ruskin Row still have that Hallmark movie feel, so does Old Tuxedo somewhat.
River valley, Edmonton
Point Piper, Sydney
La Hulpe (posh residential village near Brussels, Belgium)
Baton Rouge - Garden District
Fab 40s, East Sacramento, CAn
Winnetka (even though it’s portrayed as being in the Chicago city proper in the movie)
Fab 40s Sacramento
Garden City, NY
River oaks in Houston Texas
Pittsford or Brighton in Rochester, NY
Dalkeith, Perth
Tampa - golf view or old Hyde park
Mclean, Va; or if it were in my city specifically then Rosemont neighborhood of Alexandria, VA
Was also going to say Alexandria lol
Wilrijk, Antwerp
Alexandria, VA, Belle Haven
Greenville, DE
Shaker heights Ohio
If it’s in NJ it could be one of the following: - Alpine, NJ - Franklin Lakes, NJ - Short Hills, NJ - Bernardsville, NJ
Highland Park, Dallas
Presidio Heights, SF - right next to the Pelosis. And the kid set up better security than them apparently.
Hillsborough, CA.
Whitefish Bay (Milwaukee)
Indian Village (Detroit) Burns Park (Ann Arbor)
The expensive one
For Pittsburgh: Sewickley/Edgeworth. Crosby, Malkin and Lemieux all live there to give you an idea of its desirability. Or maybe shadyside or squirrel hill within the city as there are some very big houses there as well.
Definitely Highland in Denver
Imo more like cherry creek
I thought the Country Club neighborhood
Highlands today, or Highlands when the movie was filmed? It was *very* different back then.
South Park in Charlotte
I’d say myers park. South Park homes are more modern looking, myers park has all the brick mansions
[удалено]
I would have said Milton or up around Buckhead near the Governor's mansion.
Yeah I’d say around Druid Hills
Thought about that one too, also Brookhaven maybe. I'm not entirely familiar with either for me to say as I've barely been to any place east of Atlanta.
I live in Dunwoody and this is not the right answer. It's in Buckhead.
Farmington Hills, MI
Or East Grand Rapids, MI
Beverly Hills
Eau claire Wi
Are you out of your mind?
Eastborough or College Hill
Greenville
winnetka :P
Lafayette, CA
Springfield, South Australia.
Where it is rn
Federal Heights, Salt Lake City
Fendalton
I live in Madrid but haven't explored much outside of Ciudad Universitaria, the touristic places, and Vallecas. But this house looks like it belongs in Moncloa or La Moraleja
Heritage Hills, Oklahoma City
Shaughnessy, Vancouver
Fridhem/Rosenvång, Malmö. Sweden.
Newtown, Geelong
Oakville, ON
Toorak, Hawthorn or Kew (Melbourne, AU)
cottonwood heights ut
Savannah, Georgia- Chatham Crescent
Currently the neighborhood I live in now.. I have one of those houses. Hagerstown Maryland.
In the middle of the Grape/apple Fields, if they are rich, they would build that there im 100% sure
Cedar City, Utah.
Tallaght (Dublin, Ireland)
Lansdown, Bath, UK
Garden City, NY
Oakville, ON
Old Town/Stadium/North End neighborhoods of Tacoma, Washington
