Number 4, Privet Drive is a fictional house located in the suburb of Little Whinging, Surrey, in the Harry Potter series by J.K. Rowling. It serves as the home of the Dursley family, which includes Vernon Dursley, Petunia Dursley, and their son, Dudley Dursley. The house is described as a typical, unremarkable suburban home with a neat garden and a car parked in the driveway. In the story, Number 4 is significant as it is where Harry Potter grows up after the death of his parents. The Dursleys treat Harry poorly, often neglecting and mistreating him. This setting highlights the contrast between Harry's mundane life with the Dursleys and his eventual journey into the magical world.
