JK Rowling fans go wild as she gives rare sneak peek at Harry Potter-style home

JK Rowling has left her fans in awe at her home as it looks very much like something from her Harry Potter stories.

The award-winning author, 54, took to Twitter on Tuesday and showed off her incredible home, telling fans she was rearranging her bookshelf.

She shared a video panning around her huge room, which boasts impressive floor-to-ceiling sized shelves.

The writer, whose real name is Joanne, wrote: "Rearranging books is a very soothing lockdown activity."

She hilariously added: "To the people asking: yes, of course I've got Harry Potter books! These aren't my only bookshelves, they're simply the ones I decided to arrange by colour during tea breaks."

The author's home library was truly magical, and had rows-upon-rows of books arranged neatly in order.

There's also a chic sofa in the middle of the room where she can snuggle up for reading.

A large bay window sits behind the sofa for some extra light when Joanne gets lost in her books.

The world-famous writer also had a quote by 14th-century poet Edmund Spenser written on the wall in a fancy gold font.

It read: "It is the mind that maketh good of ill, that maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor."

Fans were delighted with the impressive room, and one penned: "A trip to your personal library is my biggest dream, Jo".

Another wrote: "Mine isn't so cool like yours, but I really like it though".

A third added: "How fabulous!"
