Who could forget the Mies-van-der-Rohe-esque house Cameron lived in in Ferris Bueller, the one with the glass garage where he sent his dad's 1961 Ferrari 250GT plummeting to its doom?
Over a year ago we started seeing blog posts indicating the Highland Park house was on the market, going for $2.3 mil. We checked the listing yesterday and not only has the house not sold, but the price has dropped to $1.65 mil. This is your chance, lucky Core77 reader, to swoop in and save yourself $650,000! You better invite us over after you buy it.
Officially called the Ben Rose Home, the steel and glass structures are located at 370 Beech Street in Highland Park, a suburb of Chicago. They were designed by 20th-century architects A. James Speyer and David Haid.
As Chicago-area '80s movies houses go, this one's a better look than that Colonial rat-trap Macaulay Culkin got locked up in.

Man, I would so live here. This house is SWEET. I would totally rob a bank if it came with the car (not smashed).
It would be super hilarious if someone bought this place, then bought the Ferrari to go with it. Then legally changed their name to Ferris Bueller. Actually that would be a little weird.
The car is about 6 - 7 times more expensive than the house. It would be a hell of a deal if it came with the car:
