The 1,000-square-foot home sits in the middle of a lot that's approximately 1,750-square-feet, so it has front, side and back yards, a real rarity around the city. Also rare: it has a basement and an attic. How suburban! And awesome. Property highlights include a wall of windows that look out onto the backyard from the kitchen and the original 1908 wainscoting in the dining room. Asking price? $639,000.

Have a nomination for a jaw-dropping listing that would make a mighty fine House of the Day? Get thee to the tipline and send us your suggestions. We'd love to see what you've got.
Location: Boerne, Texas
Price: $1,795,000
The Skinny: Situated more than 30 miles from downtown San Antonio, this house still boasts views of that city's tallest building, the Tower of Americas, thanks to a hilltop site. The stunning views from this ten-acre promontory also include the scrubby hills of San Antonio's rural suburbs. The house itself is tucked behind a pair of security gates and is part of the lauded development of Estancia at Thunder Valley. The neighborhood maintains communal riding facilities, a gymnasium, a sports court, and a par-3 golf course. While not terribly aesthetically pleasing from an architectural standpoint, the house benefits greatly from the sweeping views and an infinity pool sited to take full advantage of the vistas. The four-bed, four-bath, 4,700-square-foot home was built by a well-regarded local builder in 2007 and is currently listed for $1.8M.

On the Market: Suburban Chicago's Le Grand Rêve Set for Pre-Halloween Auction

Eagle-eyed readers might recognize Winnetka, Ill. as home to the Home Alone house, but this overwhelming, overbuilt monstrosity has little on the stately brick Georgian Kevin Macallister called home. Le Grand Rêve—"The Big Dream"—has been more of a nightmare for the empty nesters that attempted to downsize, starting in 2009. The house, which reportedly cost as much at $40M to build, was initially listed for $32M, then over the next two years was chopped down to $23M without selling. Now, the owners are getting a little fed up with waiting and have decided to send the 27,000-square-foot palace to auction. The auction is scheduled for October 29, meaning the new owner could take possession just in time to throw a nightmarish Halloween party.
