LONDON — A suburban London house that starred onscreen as Harry Potter’s childhood home is on the market.
Fans of the boy wizard will recognise 12 Picket Post Close as 4 Privet Drive, home of Harry’s dastardly aunt and uncle, the Dursleys.
The couple grudgingly took Harry in after his parents were murdered and made him sleep in a cupboard under the stairs.
The house in Bracknell, located 50km west of London, was a location featured in the 2001 film Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. A studio set of the house was built for later instalments of the eight-film series.
Real estate agent Chancellors says the 3-bedroom house “has recently undergone complete renovation to an extremely high standard”. It has an asking price of £475,000 (S$838,193). AP
