Vault 687

A vault in Gringotts Wizarding Bank belongs to the Potter family. It appears to be of moderate depth, deeper underground than the vault of the Weasley family, but not as deep as Vault 713. It is accessible only by a cart operated by one of the bank's goblin employees, and by using a small gold key. In 1991, Harry Potter was escorted to Gringotts by Rubeus Hagrid, and learned that his late parents had left him a great deal of money in a vault. This was fortunate for Harry, since his guardians would have surely taken most, if not all, as "proper compensation" for "opening their home" to him.
