The former seaside resort, one of Britain's most controversial fashion stars, is already on the market for sale.
Five years after Alexander McQueen's death, his secret two-bedroom East Sussex Hideaway has hit the market at a guide price of £695,000.
From the outside, the humble stone-built granary looks far removed from the bright lights on the catwalk and the influential designer's flamboyant public image.
But the centuries-old building, which sits on an unbuilt road, is a refuge for the star, whose private life has been devastated by the struggles with depression, alcoholism and drugs.
In February 2010, McQueen hanged himself after taking cocaine, sedatives and sleeping pills at his main residence in Mayfair, London.

But if you ask the high-end womenswear designer what factors have had the biggest impact on his work and life, he will lead the conversation to the other side of the globe. He said he fascinated him, especially its reverence for history and the beauty of traditional craftsmanship. "When I first came to Beijing in 1993," Valentino recalls, "I saw a collection of ancient Chinese costumes, one of the greatest emotional moments of my life."
19. Tom Ford
Tom Ford
Fashion icon Tom Ford, a fanatical perfectionist who is credited with reversing the malaise of Gucci and reinvigorating Yves Saint Laurent, is not surprising that he is equally strict with his own residence.
By 2004, Ford's empire of personal property expanded to London, where he bought the 8,200-square-foot White House for about $9 million. Instead of turnkey homes, the designers completely redesigned the interiors, turning this stodgy British mansion into a stylish private palace suitable for one of the biggest guns in the fashion world. During this period, the London property market became hot, driven in large part by foreign cash. In search of a lucrative payday, Ford listed the house in 2009 for more than $70 million, but failed to find a buyer before delisting. In 2012, the house was eventually sold to an undisclosed buyer for an unknown amount, and Ford was soon found looking for a home elsewhere in London.

"I still like intense colors," she says, "but the key is to make a change." I want something sexier, so the colors are really soft.
21. Carl Lagerfeld
Carl Lagerfeld
Karl Lagerfeld said the most terrible thing. His famous quotes will make you laugh, get angry, and even raise an eyebrow or two (sometimes three at the same time). So, it's hard not to know what's going on in his head, or what kind of life he's living. Of course, we may never really understand, but here are a few things that might give you more insight: Lagerfeld opened his apartment in Paris to Architectural Digest.

Modern fairy tales "I like that everything is a little magical, a little whimsical," the designer says. "So I covered this Holly Hunt candlestick chandelier with some vintage silk roses.
