To design their dream house, Lily Allen and David Harbour enlisted the help of architect Ben Bischoff and designer Billy Cotton. What they created could only be described as larger than life. The home draws on three distinct themes - traditional English, modern Brooklyn townhouse, and layered Italian. Whilst it was always going to be bold with these motifs in mind, the designers still wanted a homey vibe. And on that front, they certainly delivered.
The Georgian-style abode was originally built in 2009 for Rob Lowe, who opened its doors to Architectural Digest the following year. After scooping up the 11,500-square-foot estate, the "Payphone" singer and Victoria's Secret model enlisted AD100 firm Clements Design to renovate the nine-bedroom, 14-bathroom home with a minimalist aesthetic. The primary suite boasts several terraces, a grand bathroom decked out with white marble, and dual dressing rooms.
The 2,021-square-foot home was built in 1977. Inside, it offers three bedrooms, two full bathrooms and one partial bathroom. On the lower level, an open plan living room - featuring a fabulous retro fireplace - flows through a dining area to meet glass doors that open onto a large deck.
