You could now own a Grade II-listed terraced property with its own renowned Banksy artwork
A renowned Banksy artwork, painted nearly two decades ago on the outside of a sexual health clinic, is set to be sold along with the building it. The 'Well Hung Lover' piece on the site of the Bristol-based building is due to go up for sale next year.
At the time of its creation, the artwork was stencilled onto the side wall of Brook Sexual Health Clinic on Frogmore Street, which has since relocated. It's reported that Banksy was unaware that the building housed a sexual health clinic and found the irony amusing when informed via email.Estate agent Hollis Morgan is gearing up to sell the building, complete with a new 250-year lease, at an auction on February 12, 2025.
The statement read: "There is no official Bristol City Council policy with regard to street art, whether by Banksy or others, as it is recognised that street art is created not as a permanent work of art but as a form of protest which is usually, but not always, created illegally and without the permission of the owner of the building.
