I know what my house is missing - Diagon Alley in the family room

Someone has put some work into recreating this.

Are you saying they have used a wall sticker on a frame, as looking at photo 16 the buildings are 3d as they are at different angles under the velux windows

There’s surely no way it’s a wall sticker. Looks very 3d to me. You can see the velux windows in the ceiling above it.

Loving that! Shame they didn't do a video on the website. I'd have liked to have looked st it in more detail. Maybe they've not mentioned it in the listing as they've planningbri dismantle and take it with them.

Can you share the link you found that makes you think this?

@Aydel - how funny! When did your gran live there? Mine was born in 1907 and lived at no. 16 as a small child for a few years

the irony of arrogantly telling someone to google it, when if you had followed your own advice (or even eyes, it's very obviously 3d and not a sticker )you would have come up with the links posted above....

I think it's a bit disappointing they didn't label 'diagon alley' on the floorplan and just went with the boring 'family room.' Also shows up the floorplan as being wrong, as it shows no access from the dining room whereas there's clearly a door (otherwise it wouldn't be an alley!) - unless that's part of the magic!

Oh Jesus christ, calm down 😂

So do you still maintain it's a wall sticker?

Honestly, people get so het up about nothing. I'm arrogant for thinking it was a wall sticker? Get a fucking grip!

Besides which, I don't think its crazy to presume its a wall art sticker (which you can get of anything if you google. You can use your own photos) rather than to think someone had hand crafted something like that

Good for them though, how cool!

I'll take my 'arrogance' elsewhere and die in a puddle of shame for getting it wrong 😂

No, obviously not. Any more questions? Why did you ask that?! Fucking hell, this place!

You originally pondered whether it could be a wall sticker. Other posters came on and said it couldn't be, and then you came back and confidently posted it's a wall sticker, google it, as if the other posters were idiots.

I was amazed that a house that size only had one loo. ( I couldn’t see a cloakroom)

I think the arrogance was the way you told people to use their eyes and Google it rather than just getting it wrong. Very rude.

Very cute and looks well executed. However - what a shame they extended the house without putting the steels in to open up the space to the side and rear of the existing house. If I were a buyer, unless I actually wanted my own Diagon Alley, I'd be factoring in the cost to do this.

Just watched that - what an amazing and lovely Dad

From the 50s until she died in the 80s. It never used to be a particularly desirable part of Windsor as it was behind the barracks. They moved there when they came out of service (GF was an under butler and she was a lady’s maid).

Lovely!!

then why are you so surprised at the price???

In a further example of irony you're telling me to calm down while posting multiple times swearing, double punctuating ?! , and hyperbolising about dying in a puddle of shame 😄

You can tell who had "does not respond well to criticism" on their school report!

I love the fact that it’s Tom Felton approved!

Love it! I used to live near here and the street it’s on does the best Christmas lights display for charity - the whole road decorates and gets involved. It’s lovely. Plus great small pub on the corner too. Parking was an absolute shit show though.
