"The Winehouses have decided to put the house on the market, with great regret," the spokesman said in an email to Reuters.

"Amy loved that house but none of the family felt it appropriate that they should live in it and it was not practical to keep it empty while paying the costs of its upkeep."

Winehouse's fans have flocked to the property in Camden, north London and transformed a nearby square into a shrine following the "Back To Black" star's death.

Winehouse was 27 years old when her body was discovered at the house after a long battle with drink and drugs.

Newspaper reports said the three-bedroomed property had gone on the market for 2.7 million pounds ($4.2 million).
