They have already passed 74 years since the premiere of the movie ‘Miracle on 34 th Street ‘, which marked an era, to such a degree of being considered as the Christmas tape par excellence.

The film, starring Maureen O’Hara, John Payne, Natalie Wood and Edmund Gwenn, developed part of the plot in a country house in Port Washington , about 25 miles of Manhattan.

The property, with which ‘ Susan ‘(Natalie Wood) always dreamed of and that she and her family met by coincidence in the middle of Christmas, she appeared for a matter of minutes on the scene, but it was more than enough time for her to be immortalized in the minds of the lovers of this project.

“New York was terri unbelievably cold that winter, to such a degree that the cameras froze once. We were shooting the sequence at the end of the movie, where Natalie looks at the house she asked Kris Kringle for and says, ‘That’s it! Stop! That’s it!’. Fortunately, a very kind woman, Vaughn Mele, lived across the street from where we were filming and offered us her house to unfreeze the cameras, “recalled Maureen O’Hara in an interview about the epic scene.

The historic property, as we could see in its data sheet, was built in the year 1943, has an extension of 1, 703 square feet and with two bathrooms.

Outside, in its lot of 0. 28 acres, has very extensive green areas and beautiful trees .

The famous house does not look like the one we saw on the screen, since for the decades of the 50 ‘so 60 ‘s some modifications were made.

Its current owners, Orrie and Goodie Frutkin inhabit it since the year of 1980, unaware that he had had a brief appearance in ‘Miracle on 34 th Street ‘.

So many people feel like the loft ruins the house, but it was a big factor in our purchase. We needed a home where we could have a living space for an elderly relative. She always liked living in a bright place and the attic convinced her ”, shared Orrie Frutkin at the time.
