David Bowie‘s old childhood home has been put on the housing market for sale.

The two-bedroom terraced house, which the late icon moved into in Bromley in 1953 when he was just six-years-old, is being sold for £449,500.

Bowie lived in the house with his family for a year, before they moved to the East End, where they settled at 4 Plaistow Grove.

According to a property listing for the house, it has two double bedrooms, one bathroom, a dining room, living room, small kitchen and moderate back garden.

It is also described as a “charming two-bedroom period terraced house, located in a quiet residential position close to the heart of Bickley on the borders of Bromley.”

The description adds: “This Victorian property exudes a sense of peace and tranquillity, making it the perfect place to call home.”

Meanwhile, Bowie is set to feature in London’s brand new ‘Live Odyssey’ immersive experience.

Set to kick off in May 2025 in Camden, ‘Live Odyssey’ has been previously described as “a celebration of the rich tapestry of British music, offering a unique experience for music lovers of all ages” through “a groundbreaking tribute to the sounds that shaped Britain”.

The attraction – which combines a show, an exhibition museum and live experience together – will take attendees through six decades of music via a two-and-a-half-hour adventure that captures the evolution of British music, from the early anthems of the ’60s and ’70s to the Britpop explosion of the ’90s and today’s cutting-edge hits.

Fans will move through six different rooms, each immersing guests in a different musical era and recreating the sights, sounds, and cultural moments that define each decade. Visit here to purchase tickets and for more information.

A special edition of David Bowie‘s ‘Ready, Set, Go!’ live album is also set to be released for this year’s Record Story Day.
