The couple separated in February 2025<\/a> after five years of marriage. They listed the townhouse for just under $8 million<\/a> in October with Carl Gambino<\/a> of Compass Real Estate<\/a>, mere days after Allen released her hit album, West End Girl\u2014which she describes as \u201cinspired by<\/a>\u201d her relationship. It even features a reference to the home in one of the songs. In January, the asking price was reduced to a little over $7 million, per Realtor.com<\/a>. And later that same month, The New York Post<\/a> reported the five-bedroom home<\/a> was in contract with an unknown buyer for an unknown price.<\/p>\n The primary bathroom features wall-to-wall floral carpet and Zuber wallpaper.Hayley Ellen Day<\/p>\n The pair purchased the four-level home in January 2021 for $3.35 million<\/a> and quickly set to work reimagining the space with the help of ELLE Decor A-List<\/a> designer Billy Cotton and architect Ben Bischoff<\/a> of the practice MADE. Cotton\u2014who also scored a shout out on the album\u2014drew on Italian influences from the neighborhood as well as Allen’s own singularly English sensibilities when revamping the residence. For instance, detailed Zuber wallpaper added a breath of vibrance to many of the rooms, while new moldings brought an elegant flair. The primary bathroom was transformed into a bath-meets-sitting room, with wall-to-wall Pierre Frey carpeting, a fireplace, and dual Louis XVI-style vanities.<\/p>\n Cotton took a more understated approach in the quaint Italian-inspired kitchen, where he favored cream tones for the Plain English cabinetry, backsplash, and spacious island. A custom banquette lines the large oversized windows, which overlooks the street.<\/p>\n The airy kitchen leaned into the Italian heritage of the Carroll Gardens neighborhood.Hayley Ellen Day<\/p>\n An oasis of whimsy in the middle of Brooklyn, the brownstone also features fully a finished basement with a gym and laundry room, a spacious backyard, and outdoor sauna. <\/p>\n You Might Also Like<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links.” After seven months…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":197007,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[13085,98,100,99,13654,78499,13084,9,24,4330,63],"class_list":{"0":"post-197006","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-brooklyn","8":"tag-billy-cotton","9":"tag-brooklyn","10":"tag-brooklyn-headlines","11":"tag-brooklyn-news","12":"tag-carl-gambino","13":"tag-compass-real-estate","14":"tag-lily-allen","15":"tag-new-york","16":"tag-new-york-city","17":"tag-new-york-post","18":"tag-nyc"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197006","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=197006"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/197006\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/197007"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=197006"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=197006"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=197006"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"the](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/f6a1b562c6eaeb75bde64c13ed8766ca.jpeg\"\/)
