Harry Potter's old house is for sale
Iconic 'Privet Drive' is on the market complete with cupboard under the stairs for one magical boy

If you're in the market for a magical home, Harry Potter's house is on sale. The house where the wizard lived in a cupboard under the stairs can be yours for $620,000.



In the Potter movies, the house is known as "4 Privet Drive" and belongs to Vernon and Petunia Dursley, Harry's evil aunt and uncle. Potter spends his first 11 years with the Dursleys, after he was left on their doorstep as a baby.



The real world address is 12 Picket Post Close in the quiet suburban town of Bracknell in Berkshire, roughly 25 miles west of London. Berkshire is a fashionable county, home to Windsor Castle, Ascot Racecourse, and numerous prominent people, including the parents of the Duchess of Cambridge, and U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May.



The three-bedroom home used in the film, "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone," even has a cupboard under the stairs, Harry Potter fans can set up their bedroom just like the young wizard. You can see a few photos from the home below.
