CH3ed:
Well. First of all Godric's Hollow is a village (from JKR's site). I 
don't know if the house the Potters were hiding out in was James' or 
not. We know James' parents died of natural causes before James did so 
he should have inherited his parents' house (the one Sirius went to 
camp out in the backyard after running away from 12 GP). The house was 
destroyed the same night LV attacked (probably from the rebounded AK 
but there is no canon to shed light on that yet) so there really 
wouldn't be a house left for Harry to inherit. 

If anything he would inherit the land, I think. I suppose an adult 
(Sirius?) would have been appointed to look after it for Harry until 
he comes of age. DD didn't mention it when he told Harry about Sirius' 
will so we really don't know.  

CH3ed :O)
