Crumbling WWII station hidden in woods hits market for over $2 million

The WWII-era RAF Honiley power station in Warwickshire offers rare planning consent for a luxury home on a secluded 55-acre green belt woodland, listed at £2 million.

  • A derelict WWII power station tied to RAF Honiley has hit the market, with estate agents Moveli describing it as a rare redevelopment opportunity.
  • Because planning permission was obtained for a contemporary home on Green Belt woodland, the private local family decided to sell the site near Kenilworth.
  • The building dates to the early 1940s and formed part of the wider RAF Honiley complex, constructed with 13-inch blast-resistant brick walls and set within 55 acres of private woodland near Birmingham and London.
  • The site's wartime history raises questions about heritage recognition and reuse, attracting military and history enthusiasts and engaging potential buyers and developers.
  • Marketing describes the site as a 'James Bond-style' hideaway, emphasizing its cinematic appeal and 'total seclusion with serious connectivity,' according to agent Edd Holt.
