Kate Bush’s former home is up for sale for £3 million.
The property on Eltham’s Court Road in London, south east England – where the ‘Wuthering Heights’ hitmaker lived for nearly twenty years from 1985 until 2003 – has been put on the market for the huge sum.
The current owner of the house, Jackie O’Reilly, said: "I grew up in Eltham, and we always knew it as Kate Bush’s house, and caught odd glimpses of her. But she clearly valued her privacy. The house is surrounded by large trees, to keep out the prying eyes."
Since moving into the house 10 years ago, Jackie and her family have made a number of changes including landscaping the garden, installing a summer house and fish pond and putting a wrought iron ‘Wuthering Heights’ sign on the front gate.
She explained: "The house was already called that in the title deeds, so we decided to put that in as an homage to Kate."
Referring to another feature of the property, Jackie added to the Daily Telegraph newspaper: "Kate has long since moved out of the area, but we catch sight of her from time to time. Her brother still lives next door, and there is a gate between the two gardens."
