House or Museum?

Question of the week: Can you suggest a house-turned-museum based in London?

"The Georgian home of Charles Dickens in Holborn is a biased recommendation! 'Oliver Twist' was one of those books I read countless times as a child and luckily enough, this house-turned-museum is where Dickens wrote the book from start to finish. Although Dickens only lived at this residence for two years or so as he then moved on to homes that more closely reflected his increasing wealth, it is the only one still standing. The museum displays paintings, manuscripts, and orginal furniture--and of couse, a persevering sense of literary creativity."- Christina
