He don’t need no seaside mansion. Following local contention over his conversion of an abandoned, 19th-century UK bathhouse into a private estate, English rocker David Gilmour is reportedly selling the property.

Area residents took issue with the Pink Floyd guitarist, 76, demolishing the historically significant structure three years after purchasing it in 2015.

It was initially built to provide bathing facilities to those too poor to have their own. “Hey Gilmour, leave our hood alone,” one activist group wrote in a message pinned to the building before its destruction, the Daily Mail reported. “All in all it’s just another betrayal of us all, to you it’s just another brick in the wall.”Gilmour went ahead with the construction of his waterfront East Sussex compound, but now — just two years after completing it — he and his 60-year-old wife, Polly Sampson, plan to sell, according to Jam Press.

The five-bedroom, three-bathroom home is set to list for just over $18.1 million. “When you wake up in the morning, the view is always a surprise: the sea and sky are never the same,” Gilmour and Sampson reflected in a statement supplied by their real estate agent. “It’s a huge advantage not to have a busy road and traffic between us and the sea.” The freshly completed house features a library, “music room,” recording studio, sauna, temperature-controlled wine storage, gym, a courtyard garden and a sunken garden.
