>I have been reading the grand speculations regarding the fate of #12 Grimmauld Place.
>Here's my theory:
afn01288:
This is of course highly speculative in comparison to many other discussions.
>First, I don't think Harry would disrespect the inheritance because Sirius gave it to him.
afn01288:
With this, I strongly agree. Though quite selflessly during the time covered in canon, I think he graciously allowed use to Order members even if we didn't read about it.

>Also, who is to say that #12 Grimmauld Place was just their city-house and that they had >a country or village place as well. Maybe near/in Godric's Hollow?
afn01288:
I think this the most likely arrangement. I don't think it was a great place to rear his children owing to the seedy neiborhood, yet it may have been a convenient literal "townhouse" when that location in London was useful for him and family/friends.
>Third, if Kreacher decided to come back to the house and serve Harry, It would totally be >Kreacher's choice.Just Imagining,
afn01288:
I could imagine Kreacher still considering it his home, being most comfortable there, and with his respect DH and after for Harry he would help maintain it as a sort of housekeeper to Harry and family or Harry's guests using the house.
As a behest from beloved Sirius, and the only home Harry had, literally i.e. other than being like a family member at the Wealey's or forced housing with the Dursley's. It was an important setting for some significant memories from OOtP-DH. I was upset and think Harry was when in DH the trio had to leave #12 Grimmauld Place. Post DH, it's hard to imagine Harry getting rid of the place!
