I assume either:

- The "spa" was the final straw for the last few people in the village who would speak to them and they want to start afresh elsewhere, or
- They were always planning to sell it after building the spa

I used to live in the village and know a number of people who still live there, I understand that they are entirely shunned by the natives now.

Funny, the agent (and presumably vendors) have clearly made a decision to not mention the current owners or the recent history of the property in the description, but still decided to include TWO photos of the entrance hall with the statuette of Cpt Tom and his zimmer frame.

The particulars of sale will be an interesting read and probably quite lengthy!

(1) Property Information Form (TA6 Form): Sellers must complete this crucial document. It covers various aspects of the property, including boundaries, disputes, alterations, guarantees, and environmental issues. Accurate and detailed information about the property’s condition and known problems must be provided.

(2) Building and Planning Permissions: If the property underwent significant alterations or renovations, sellers must disclose whether necessary planning permissions and building regulations approvals were obtained. This ensures buyers are aware of compliance issues.

(3) Information about Disputes or Complaints: If there have been disputes or complaints related to the property or its neighborhood, sellers must inform potential buyers. This includes disputes with neighbors, planning disputes, or other legal issues.

The price is bonkers - for the same money and a short drive away, you could've bought this: https://www.rightmove.co.uk/properties/120826208

I like how they've blurred all the pictures out, but left the big bronze statue in full view in hallway photos too.

The agent mentions Sir Tom, the famous garden and the charity in the Sales Video.

ETA I’m sure the grasping family would have exhausted any development potential on the site before marketing it.

Well the spa had to be pulled down after losing a planning appeal because the development impacted the listed building.

Presumably somebody could build the original home-office as approved, but any sort of housing would seem to be out of the question.

Nice, I particularly like how with all that stabling and outbuildings, they still felt the need for a small shed in the garden (to the top left of the aerial pics)

I’m sure she was bleating on when they bought it a few years back at 700k it had 4 bedroom and she was saying it was a big risk with the mortgage.

Luckily the Captain money allowed them to extend a fair bit by the looks of it.
