The three-bedroom terraced house in Speke, roughly 8 miles outside of Liverpool, was once an early rehearsal space for the Beatles, as well as The Quarrymen, an earlier iteration that was the first band in which John Lennon, Paul McCartney and Harrison played together as teenagers before drummer Ringo Starr joined years later.
Harrison’s family moved into the property at 25 Upton Green in 1950, when the future Beatle was just 6 years old, and lived there for 12 years, according to Omega Auctions, which provided photos of the guitarist inside and in front of the home.
