Captain Tom’s daughter removes listing of £2,250,000 home from prying eyes --[Reported by Umva mag]

The family home of Captain Tom Moore and his daughter which is on the market for £2.25 million has been moved onto a secret private listing to stop the public from taking a peek.

Hannah Ingram-Moore and her husband Colin put the Bedfordshire property up for sale in April after they were forced to demolish their unauthorised spa block.

The Grade-II listing was at first made public on the agent’s website, giving the public a glimpse at the Captain Tom statue which sits proudly in the hallway for all visitors to wonder at.

The full scale of the garden where the war hero completed 100 laps to raise money for the NHS in 2020 was also shown.

But having enough of people wondering at the remains of the £200,000 which was built in the garden before it was ordered to be destroyed, the agent has made the listing private.

Describing what a discreet listing means, agents Fine & Country said: ‘An off-market property, also referred to as a discreet property listing, is where a seller does not want their property name or address to be visible on portals, such as Rightmove, on social media, through digital advertising, in windows of high-street agencies, in print or with a “for sale” board.’

Before it was taken down, an ‘owner’s statement’ on Rightmove read: ‘A particularly special memory of our time here is of my father walking 100 laps of the garden to raise a record-breaking sum of almost £40million for NHS charities during the pandemic.’

The brochure also adds: ‘The property is owned by the family of Captain Sir Tom Moore who spent his final years there raising money for the NHS during the Covid pandemic.’

Ms Ingram-Moore had been given permission to make a Captain Tom Foundation building in their garden to store cards and gifts sent by admirers.

But she did not seek extra permission after she decided to add a sauna, pool, spa, changing rooms, toilets and showers.

They argued it can be used for ‘rehabilitation sessions for elderly people in the area’, but the council declared it to be ‘wholly different to the application’.

Central Bedfordshire’s Council’s planning inspectorate team ruled the complex was built illegally, saying the sheers scale of spa ‘resulted in hard’ to the Grade II listen family home.

Ms Ingram-Moore and her husband Colin lost a court case in October to try and save their £200,000 spa and pool complex.

But the family failed to launch an appeal within the six week time limit, meaning the building was ordered to be demolished by February 7.

In a TalkTV interview with Piers Morgan, Ms Ingram-Moore conceded it was a mistake to lodge the planning application under the Captain Tom Foundation, saying the building was merely meant to bear his name.

She denied the family had sought to give themselves ‘a little treat’, claiming the paperwork was filed after her father’s death ‘because we wanted it as part of that legacy, and because it was a nice thing to do’.
