Harry Potter fans have been left spellbound by this gorgeous gothic-style Harry Potter house in Chelsea, London.
It’s a bit dark inside but that only adds to its enchanting, other-worldly appeal.
The price tag is also ‘dreamy’, in that most people can afford a house like this only in their dreams.

The master bedroom makes use of cathedral like windows to give a haunting vibe to the boudoir, with lanterns providing some much needed light.
Over in the kid’s bedroom, there’s a certain coziness.
The colors are warming – more yellows and reds than dark browns.
With the world’s coolest bunk bed and more storage space than Hermione’s handbag, this room is what childhood dreams are made of.
Want to unwind after a day of Quidditch practice? This master bathroom is for you.
Yeah, the dark tiles are giving Death Eater more than Dumbledore’s Army, but we still love it.
Here’s hoping that the taps don’t open up the Chamber of Secrets whilst you’re waiting for your bath to warm up.
Down in the kitchen, there’s more than enough space for entertaining.
The long table seats more than 10 people, so it’s perfect for those late-night Butterbeer banquets.
And speaking of get-togethers, there’s also a dining room, a TV room and a back garden to entertain your guests.
So, what does a place like this cost?
It’s been priced at $3.9 million.
But there’s a twist.
This Harry Potter house isn’t quite…real.
Yes, like Hogwarts, this home exists only in the imagination.
When a video showcasing the impressive spread went viral on TikTok, viewers were quick to complain about it getting their hopes up.
“It’d be neat if people stopped trying to pass off AI-generated images as real,” one said.
But one said it was pretty obvious it wasn’t real.
“Seriously people, do these rooms look like they’d fit in that house?” they said.
Alas, we don’t live in the world of magic and make believe, we live in the world of AI images and internet hoaxes.
But for $3.9 million, you’d need a lot of coins to be able to afford this place.
So, maybe it’s for the best that this Harry Potter house is just a work of fantasy.
