The Hobbit houses' are a series of fantastical homes created by Disney artist Joseph Lawrence. And though the homes have appeared in a handful of Hollywood movies, it was only coincidence that they resembled P.J's vision of the Shire. The homes are private property so stick to the sidewalk for your pictures!
