Although Number 4 Privet Drive is by far the least magical location in the entire Harry Potter Universe, we reckon it would still be a pretty cool place to visit.

Warner Brothers Studios in London have announced that between May 27th and June 6th of this year, visitors will be granted access to Harry's Muggle home which he shared with Uncle Vernon, Aunt Petunia and his bully cousin, Dudley. Organisers told Mashable that "set decorators were tasked with filling the house with quirky pieces of furniture and had lots of fun sourcing the ugliest sofas, worst tiles and most unattractive curtains possible". Costumes worn by the Dursleys will be displayed, as will the technology that saw thousands of letters rushing through the fireplace of the house, signifying the beginning of Harry's magical adventure. The video below details what you can expect, and it looks great. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9t-ZYJ4fXHI (via YouTube/Warner Brothers)
