Cornwall House Where Oasis Recorded ‘Definitely Maybe’ Hits Market for £1.95 Million

This iconic Cornwall house where Oasis crafted their legendary debut album ‘Definitely Maybe’ is now up for sale, offering a rare slice of music history.

Step Into the Studio Where Oasis Made Magic

If you’ve ever dreamed of owning a piece of Britpop history, here’s your chance. The house in Cornwall, nestled in the charming village of Golant, is the very place where Oasis recorded the seminal 1994 album Definitely Maybe. Now, this historic property — home to the famed Sawmills Studio — is on the market for £1.95 million.

Liam Gallagher and Noel Gallagher captured moments of musical genius in 1994.

The Sawmills Studio has been a creative sanctuary for some of the biggest names in rock, including The Stone Roses, Muse, and the legendary Robert Plant. But it’s Oasis’s debut that sealed its place in music history.

An Exclusive Hideaway with a Rock ‘n’ Roll Legacy

What makes this property even more special is its seclusion. Accessible only by foot or by a twice-daily boat ride when the tide allows, it offers a private retreat perfect for creative minds. Back in the day, the band itself — featuring Noel, Liam, Bonehead, Guigsy, and Tony McCarroll — stayed right here while recording those iconic tracks.

“That’s where the Oasis brothers cut their 1st record... Great place for a party.” — Keith, Twitter user

Having also recorded at Monnow Valley Studios in Wales, the studio’s co-owner Dennis Smith recalls how Oasis, after initial recordings, returned here hungry to perfect their sound. “They were desperate to have another go, and they had 10 days to do it, and it was a question of getting it right this time,” he said.

From Rough Cuts to Timeless Tracks

Despite the hard work at Sawmills, the band wasn’t entirely satisfied with the initial results. That’s when Creation Records’ Marcus Russell brought on engineer Owen Morris, who mixed the album at Johnny Marr’s Manchester studio, turning those raw sessions into the Britpop classic we know and love today.

A Property Packed with Potential

The Old Sawmills isn’t just a studio; it’s a stunning waterside home. Set on the western bank of the River Fowey, overlooking a tidal creek in an area of outstanding natural beauty, this property has never been offered on the open market in 50 years.

Here’s what you get:

• Seven bedrooms
• Two reception rooms
• A detached two-bedroom lodge
• Recording facilities including control room, vocal booth, and a live room with Juliet balcony overlooking the creek

The listing highlights the studio’s legacy, noting albums like Oasis’s Definitely Maybe, Supergrass’s In It For The Money, and Muse’s Origin of Symmetry were all recorded here.

Oasis’s Ongoing Legacy

While this house holds memories of the band’s origin, Oasis continues to make headlines with their 2025 reunion shows. They kicked off their ‘Live ‘25’ Dublin tour at Croke Park — their first since 2008 — honoring family and fans with highlights like ‘Stand By Me,’ dedicated to their mum, Peggy.

Their tour spans North America, including stops in Toronto, Chicago, and Mexico City, before returning to the UK for two final nights at Wembley Stadium. Later dates will take them across Asia, Australia, and South America, proving Oasis’s global appeal remains as strong as ever.

Why This Sale Matters

Owning the Old Sawmills means owning a piece of music history — a rare, secluded retreat where some of the most beloved rock records were born. It’s a unique opportunity for music lovers, collectors, or anyone seeking a truly special home steeped in culture.

So, are you ready to live where legends like Noel and Liam Gallagher once crafted the soundtrack of a generation?
