Regarded as one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century, David Bowie was an innovative artist. Shifting musical styles and making daring fashion choices, he was dubbed the 'chameleon of rock'. He was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996.

Much like his back catalogue, his New York City apartment is a piece of rock 'n' roll history. On Lafayette Street, between the sought-after neighbourhoods of SoHo and Nolita, the luxurious penthouse condo belonged to the iconic British singer from 1999 until his death from liver cancer in 2016.

The 'Life on Mars' singer paid $3.8 million (£2.9m) for the apartment in 1999, and we think it was worth every penny.
