Stoke Park is currently closed to the public but it expected to reopen as a luxury golf club.
The iconic estate, which has appeared in countless films including two in the James Bond collection Goldfinger and Tomorrow Never Dies, has been shut for renovation since its takeover in 2021 by the Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani's company, Reliance Industries.
Online website Luxury Launches reports Mr Ambani was so enamoured by Stoke Park, he bought the property over Zoom.
Set in the heart of Buckinghamshire’s green belt within 300 acres of grounds, it is easy to see how new owner Mr Ambani needed little persuading when investing in the site.
But despite its grand exterior, a spokesman for Stoke Park, which previously was open as a country club and hotel, said the building was in need of signficant repairs.
Listing the challenges on their website, a statement reads: "The Mansion requires significant restoration due to legionella, leaking roof and cracks, wall movement over arched doors cracks in wall and corroding ironwork, cracks in ceiling amongst many other issues.
"Built in 1908 the golf course lacks suitable drainage and irrigation technology leading to flooding and regular course closures.
"Shared facilities for hotel guests and golfers do not meet the needs for either guests or golf players.
"There is currently insufficient disabled access and facilities for modern standards.
"The Hotel is not up to modern standards and cannot compete with luxury hotels. Without additional facilities to meet expectations the hotel cannot compete."
A planning application is expected to be submitted to Buckinghamshire Council at a later date.
