Suzi Quatro’s House For Sale

OK, some of our younger readers may not be familiar with the name, but back in the early 70s the sight of Suzi Q in a leather catsuit had quite an impact on impressionable young lads.

Throw in the wailing voice, the thumping bass and the promise that Your Mamma Won’t Like Me and, well, old Suzi looked like she’d be a damn sight more fun, than, say, Karen Carpenter (“Ouff Suzi. You were always in my dreams when I was 14-15,” as one YouTube comment has it).

She now lives in rural Essex and is currently selling Hyde Hall, her rather lovely Elizabethan Manor.

While there’s always something a little depressing about rockers living in stockbroker mansions, Suzi, we’re very happy to report, has electric guitars affixed to the timber panelling on either side of the brick fireplaces. And she still looks pretty impressive in leather. Amen to that.

Strutt & Parker are selling Hyde Hall. Asking price: £2,300,000.
