News from the Knoff Group

The home used for some key scenes in the John Hughes’ classic 80s camp film Ferris Bueller’s Day Off is for sale.

Located in Highland Park, Illinois – the Ben Rose Home is very far from Montana but still worth a post.  The scene of the infamous 1961 Ferrari crashing through the window in reverse at Cameron’s dad’s place was filmed here.  Stacked like a childhood memory in my mind, there’s something about this mid-century house that has always appealed to me.

Price cut on September 7 – Asking $1.375 Million.

Amazingly, the agent that has this listed has not put into the public comments that it appeared in the film – guessing someone might have just purchased it more quickly if they’d really outlined the history of the home. Marketing, Marketing, Marketing.

Address: 370 Beech Street, Highland Park, IL.
