Harry Potter’s home and a London pad with 13 bedrooms – these were the most viewed houses on Zoopla last year
Check out the most popular houses on property website Zoopla - there are certainly some surprises...
Property websites are full of hidden gems. From the weird and wonderful to iconic film locations and drop dead gorgeous family pads, we could spend hours browsing homes up and down the country. And it seems we're not alone!
Zoopla has revealed the top 10 most viewed properties online last year. Harry Potter's childhood home at Number 4 Privet Drive of course makes an appearance, along with a 13 bedroom pad in the capital and a family home with pirate ship play area in the garden (jealous, us?).
Which is your favourite?
1. A five-bedroom London pad for £2.25m
This large family home was on the market for a whopping £2.5 million. The modern home was the most viewed property of 2016 - well, it does have a 90ft garden complete with its own irrigation system...
2. A detached beauty in Keston, Bromley, for £1.7m
This sprawling property was refurbished from top to bottom ready for the market. The stylish finish features a ‘floating’ wall with fireplace and contemporary polished concrete.

3. A four-bedroom home in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, for £375,000
What a quaint little number! This home built from reclaimed stone was built in 2002 on the edge of Holmfirth, dubbed 'Little Hollywood' because it was the setting for the TV classic, Last of the Summer Wine.
4. A six-bedroom home near Donaghadee, Northern Ireland, for £550,000
This rural home comes with a paddock and stable for a pony. Naturally.
