A 'huge' Beatles fan has become the new owner of a home where John Lennon once lived. The childhood house of The Beatles frontman, which reportedly played a significant role in the development of the world-famous band, sold at a recent auction for £279,000.
The auction house said that the winning bidder was UK-based and had purchased the property for their daughter who is a huge Beatles fan. The three-bedroom semi-detached house, located at 1 Blomfield Road, in Allerton, Liverpool, was owned by Lennon's mother Julia Lennon and was where John and Sir Paul McCartney would often practice together.
The house was remembered fondly by several of Lennon’s family members for its small size and was where Lennon and McCartney, who would become founding members of the Beatles, rehearsed with their bandmates in their first band The Quarrymen.
