A rare chance to a buy a house on one of London's coolest streets - once home to Oscar Wilde, David Bowie and George Best - has come up for anyone with a spare £10 million. The house sits on one of Chelsea’s most sought-after roads, Oakley Street.
The street carries with it the ghosts of many iconic figures who have lived among its houses. Bob Marley moved into the house next door in 1977, house number 89 was the home of the Manchester United footballer George Best, the acclaimed Irish playwright Oscar Wilde lived at Number 87, and even David Bowie was drawn to the road, moving into number 89 in 1973.
The road also homed the spy Donald Maclean, a British diplomat who spied for the Soviet Union. The road starts just off the King’s Road in Chelsea and runs all the way down to the River Thames.
