Childhood Home of Jim, John Belushi Hits Market In Wheaton

WOW House: This Wheaton house was home to comedians Jim and John Belushi when they were children.

WHEATON, IL -- A brick home in Wheaton where Jim and John Belushi spent their formative years is now up for sale. The Belushis bought the house not long after it was built in 1953 and owned it until 1979, according to Chicago Tribune.

The 904 East Elm property was revamped in 2006 to include an upgraded kitchen with stainless steel appliances and a concrete patio in the fenced backyard.

Though the former Belushi home has been extensively updated, you can still imagine young John and Jim playing in the backyard, practicing music in the garage, and finding inspiration for some of their famous characters.
