Default Buy Ferris Bueller’s House

LOL - Ok, so it’s not actually Ferris’s house - it was his best friend Cameron's house well in the movie it was , and it’s a bloody brilliant house!

All you need is US$2.3mil and a desire to live in Highland Park, Illinois.

Site of the famous movie “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”, cantilevered over the ravine, these two steel and glass buildings, which can never be duplicated, have incredible vistas of the surrounding woods

I think it's because some artist guy designed them; mentions it in the ad. What I find amazing is it was built in 1953.
