The family home where music legend John Lennon practiced with The Beatles bandmate Sir Paul McCartney as teenager has sold at auction. The modest three-bedroom semi in Blomfield Road in Allerton, Liverpool, played a instrumental role his musical development and was flogged for just less than £280,000.
The Pebble-dashed property was the home of his mother Julia, who John would regularly go to visit. In his teenage years he would host regular jam sessions in the bathroom.
Omega Auctions said the house - described as a generous sized corner plot with front, side and rear gardens - was bought by a UK-based 'big Beatles fan' for £279,500, reports the ECHO. From 1950 to 1958 John’s mother Julia and his sisters, Julia and Jackie, lived in the three-bedroom council house with his mum’s new partner John ‘Bobby’ Dykins.
