A house featured in the Harry Potter film series is up for sale, giving muggles the opportunity to own the property where the boy wizard got his distinctive scar.

The Godric's Hollow home of Harry Potter's parents Lily and James featured in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One, where the evil Lord Voldemort killed them but not Harry himself — making him The Boy Who Lived.

But to buy it, you will need a lot of Galleons in your Gringotts vault — it is priced at 995,000 British pounds ($1.6 million).

In real life, the six-bedroom, four-bathroom De Vere House is in the village of Lavenham in Suffolk, England, and features two wings, with a hall, reception hall, drawing room, cloakroom and utility room.

But the old house is not only known for its Harry Potter cameo.

Real estate agent Carter Jonas said it was an "important and historically significant" property, and was believed to have been built by the De Vere family, who were "the second richest family after the King" in the Medieval era.

It said King Henry VII himself even visited the house in 1498, during a hunting trip.
