London Fixer-Upper Neighboring Paul McCartney Asks £16.95 Million

The brick-and-stucco mansion was built in the 19th century and is minutes from the famed “Abbey Road” crosswalk

You could put all your loving into this historic fixer-upper neighboring Sir Paul McCartney’s longtime London home.

A six-bedroom Victorian villa, steps from the music icon’s house in St. John’s Wood, hit the market this month asking £16.95 million (US$18.4 million). Clad in brown brick and stucco, the mansion is part of a row of architecturally landmarked private homes built in the mid-19th century.
