Holy House Hunters! Can't Keep a Secret From These Guys

There was no hiding this $1.495 million New Lenox house after all.

Zillow tried keeping the exact location of this $1.495 million, nine-bathroom (seven-and-a-half-bathroom?) mansion for sale in New Lenox on the down low. But Zillow wasn't counting on a few sharp-eyed real estate watchdogs just dying to give them away.

That's right. Just moments after Patch extolled the virtues of this multicultural celebration of excess, these guys were all over it, pinpointing the secret spot where this palace and all of its eight bedroom and three kitchens sits.

"Noonan's house again?" wrote "Ed." "It's on the west side of Schoolhouse road just south of Francis road. The price is dropping, and for whatever reason it warrants its own news article on the New Lenox Patch. Nothing to see here."

Over on Facebook, media pundit Cari Didion Jones agreed, writing simply, "NOT news."

Here's a full rundown of all the Facebook opinions:

  • Mike Stevens Schoolhouse and Francis. That was easy.
  • Daniela Valencia ^yep^
  • Cari Didion Jones NOT news.
  • Steve Kolb Sr. Everyone knows where that house is. Sold last time when market was good for same price. Lol, goodluck with them even getting $900,000!
  • Morgan Marshall Really undisclosed? Noonans house on schoolhouse
  • Linda Pfeifer House is on Schoolhouse just south of Francis.
  • Gavin Didion-Jones lol
  • Carrie Yapp-Grafrath The undisclosed house in back of it with the iron gates and really long drive is amazing. English manor built about 15 yrs ago. Now that is a secret gem.
  • Steve Kolb Sr. ^ Yea w/a hacked up slate roof & copper gutters/flashings all caulked together instead of soldered, mold count in attic must be off the charts.
