The house comprises three bedrooms, a living room and a relaxing garden. It is also 320 meters from the nearest railway station.

The 4 Privet Drive was last sold for £290,000 back in May 2010.

Radcliffe’s character lived in the home when he was 15 months old after his parents were murdered. In the film “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone” (also known as The Philosopher’s Stone), Daniel Radcliffe’s Harry was coerced to sleep in a cupboard under the stairs by his wicked “Muggle” godparents and cousin.  In 1997, after a few years of schooling at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, Potter departed the Dursley residence at 4 Privet Drive.
