The 14th Century house used as the birthplace of Harry Potter remains on the market over a year after it was put up for sale.

　　一座14世纪房屋曾被用来作为哈利·波特的诞生地，在出售一年后仍然无人问津。

　　De Vere House in Lavenham, Suffolk, featured in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part One, as the house where the young wizard’s parents were killed by Lord Voldemort.

　　位于萨福克郡拉文纳姆的德维尔楼曾出现在《哈利波特与死亡圣器第一部》中，作为这位年前巫师的父母被伏地魔勋爵杀害的地方。

　　It was put on the market last summer for almost 1m GBP.

　　这座房子去年夏天以近100万英镑的价格投放市场。

　　Estate agent Carter Jonas said it was yet to find "the buyer it deserves".

　　地产经纪人卡特·乔纳斯表示尚未找到“应得的买主”。

　　Caroline Edwards, a partner at the firm, said: "Special houses like this always have to find the right buyer - indeed, a buyer who is prepared to be a custodian as much as a resident."

　　该公司的合伙人卡罗琳·爱德华兹说：“这样的特殊房屋总是必须找到合适的买家，除了作为住户之外，买家还必须准备好成为房屋的守护者。”

　　She said such a historic house appealed to the "timber-framed purist" but was "not for the faint-hearted", given the significance it carried.

　　她说这样一座历史悠久的房子对热衷于“木结构的纯粹主义者”很有吸引力，但鉴于它的重要性，并“不适合胆小的人”。

　　But she said: "When you find the right buyer for a house like this, they tend to treasure them."

　　但她说：“当你为这样的房子找到合适的买主的话，他们往往会很珍惜。”

　　De Vere House has a price tag of ?950,000, which has been dropped from the original ?995,000 asking price.

　　德维尔楼的价格从原先的995000英镑下降到950000英镑。

　　它坐落于哈利·波特电影中的戈德里克山谷，窗内又一棵圣诞树，对面是一个虚构的墓地。

　　The house is among about 340 listed buildings in Lavenham, considered to be the best-preserved medieval village in England.

　　这座房子是拉文纳姆列出的340建筑的其中之一，该地被认为是英格兰保存最完好的中世纪村??庄。

　　It takes its name from the De Vere family and has previously been known as Oxenford House and Oxford House.

　　这座房屋的名字以德维尔家族命名，之前被称为奥森克津屋和牛津屋。

　　In medieval times, the De Vere family was the second-richest family after the king and were responsible for creating much of Lavenham’s medieval grandeur, the estate agent said.

　　房地产经纪人说，在中世纪时期，德维尔家族是继国王之后的第二富豪家族，创造了拉文纳姆在中世纪时期的大部分辉煌。

　　The house has retained its period features, including a massive timber frame, fireplaces, wall paintings and a rare stone spiral staircase with a carved brick handrail.

　　这座房子保留了其时代特色，包括巨大的木框架，壁炉，壁画和罕见的石头螺旋楼梯与雕刻砖扶手。
