The Grade II-listed Old Rectory is described in the sale listing as a “magnificent seven-bedroom property'
The family home where Captain Sir Tom Moore walked 100 laps of the garden, raising £38.9 million for the NHS at the height of the first national Covid-19 lockdown, has been listed for sale for £2.25 million. It comes less than three months after the demolition of an unauthorised spa pool block in the grounds of the property in Marston Moretaine, Bedfordshire.
A photograph of the fundraising hero being knighted by the Queen is seen displayed on a wall in the separate coach house building within the house’s grounds, which is currently being used as a gym and offices. Introducing the property, an estate agent says in the tour video: “I’m sure you’ll recognise this iconic and very famous driveway behind me as it was home to the late Captain Sir Tom Moore who walked 100 laps of his garden raising over £37 million for NHS charities.
The Charity Commission opened a case into the Captain Tom Foundation shortly after his death in 2021 and launched an inquiry in June 2022. It came amid concerns about its management and independence from Captain Tom’s family.
