The Film: The Lake House (2006)
The House: The Lake House (because it’s on a lake, see?)
Location: Illinois, USA
Estate Agent Listing: Situated on a beautiful location on stilts at the shore edge of Maple Lake in Cook County, this peaceful glass house is the perfect place for your Zen meditation.
Designed by a soulful, slightly emotionally detached architect, it’s isolated but still close enough to local amenities to be an ideal family home for people who can swim.
Oh, and did we mention it has a letterbox that lets you send messages THROUGH TIME? How cool would that be? You could play tricks on friends, avert disasters, and even fall in love.
Can you get it for real? Sadly no. It was built for the movie and was knocked down once the shoot was complete. You can still visit the lake, though…

You definitely missed some fine movie houses. For example the one from "Life as a House", "The Invisible" lived in an awesome one as well and John Cusack's House in "Martian Child" wasn't so bad either. Don't know about the locations and realness though.
