Lily Allen, David Harbour List Brooklyn Brownstone for $8 Million as Singer Defends Breakup Album

Allen says West End Girl is a mix of truth and fiction and not a revenge project, and Harbour has yet to respond publicly.

Overview

  • The Carroll Gardens townhouse, bought in 2021 for about $3.35 million and revamped with designer Billy Cotton and architect Ben Bischoff, hit the market for $7.995 million.
  • The home, featured in a viral 2023 Architectural Digest tour, spans five bedrooms and four baths with amenities including a sauna, gym and garden.
  • Allen released West End Girl on Oct. 24 via BMG — her first album in seven years — saying she wrote and recorded it in 10 days last December during the breakup.
  • The record references alleged infidelity and a figure called “Madeline”; Allen told The Times the character is fictional, though a woman has claimed otherwise in tabloid interviews.
  • Media outlets reported the couple separated earlier this year; Harbour has not addressed the album’s allegations, and tabloid reporting cites public records showing a roughly $2.5 million mortgage on the property.
