Christine McVie’s London Penthouse Lists for $8.9M
The Late Fleetwood Mac Keyboardist’s Two-Story Penthouse in Belgravia
The late Christine McVie’s penthouse in Belgravia, London is up for sale. The 2,674-square-foot aerie spans two floors and includes a private terrace roof garden. The three-bedroom duplex is listed by Beauchamp Estates for $8.9 million, according to a press release. Bloomberg first reported the listing.
A Home Filled with Art and Mementos
McVie joined Fleetwood Mac in 1970 and played with them through their heyday, until departing in 1998. She purchased the two-story penthouse in 2015. The listing boasts “exceptional privacy” and views over Belgravia, an affluent, residential area of Central London.
The listing photos show evidence of McVie’s thrilling career and warm home life. Sitting rooms display stunning artwork over a couch lined with a well-loved troupe of teddy bears, which once resided in her former countryside home. Two stitched pillows sit on either side of a bed, reading: “Dougal Sleeps Here,” and “George Sleeps Here.” Dougal and George were McVie’s beloved blonde Lhasa Apso dogs. Two piano-themed side tables sit on either side of the bed.
A Space Filled with Natural Light
Sash windows fill the home with light, and the penthouse features vaulted ceilings, reception rooms with oak parquet flooring, and marble fireplaces, matching the “classic grandeur” of the building’s white stucco front. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet, a vanity, and an ensuite bathroom.
A Kitchen Filled with Whimsy
McVie refurbished the penthouse in 2015 alongside its developer. The kitchen features a breakfast bar and warm yellow tiling, and a cabinet filled with miniature pianos. The bathroom features a freestanding tub and blue tiling.
A Private Roof Garden
The penthouse home includes a private terrace roof garden, offering stunning views over Belgravia. This listing is a rare opportunity to own a piece of rock ‘n’ roll history.
