They will be sold to preserve the studios where they lived and worked together, Durham Wharf in London, and to allow it to run as a not-for-profit arts space.
Julian's son Philip Trevelyan told the Guardian: "My father and stepmother lived together at their studio in Durham Wharf for over 40 years.
"It was more than just a studio, it shaped their whole lives and became a creative hub and meeting place where artists could gather and work together."
