DHAKA: Beatles guitarist George Harrison’s childhood home will go on sale at an auction.

The star lived at the terraced property in Liverpool, England with his parents between 1949 and 1965 and the building is now up for auction via Homes Bought Fast, reported contactmusic.com, says The Hindu.

‘We are overwhelmed by the interest surrounding this property. When we heard it was a Beatle’s former house we implemented a lot of research which confirmed it was George’s house, and we still couldn’t believe it,’ said managing director of Homes Bought Fest, David Coughlin.

‘It’s part not only of Liverpool’s history, but of the world of music, and there’s something very special about being in the same place as the Beatles’ once were,’ he said.

John Lennon’s childhood home in the same city was sold in an auction in 2013 for $816,000, well above the $255,000 price.
