Fresh plans submitted to renovate Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne's old Bucks mansion

Fresh plans have been submitted to Buckinghamshire Council in order to restore Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne’s former Buckinghamshire mansion.

The husband and wife team, who currently live in Jordans near Beaconsfield, used to reside in Beel House on Snells Lane in Little Chalfont.

Since the family left the property several decades ago, the house has been derelict and is in ‘poor condition’.

Now, it has been revealed that two Russian film moguls in Sergei Oleg Yershov and Olga Romanov have been given permission by Bucks Council to overhaul the Georgian Grade II listed eight-bedroom house.

Planners approved the refurbishment of Beel House in July last year, but Mr Yershov and Mrs Romanov have since asked Buckinghamshire Council for permission to make slight changes to their original blueprints.

This was in April this year.

Now, new plans have been put forward to completely renovate the roof, ground floor, second floor and many of its windows.

The plans were all submitted on Monday, July 1.

Set in 13.5 acres of grounds, Beel House features four bathrooms, a library, a large indoor swimming pool, a steam room, a sauna, a gym, changing rooms, a tennis court, a croquet lawn, a games room and a deer park.

After the sprawling country pile was sold in 2021, surveys revealed decay, mould and dampness within the property, which is now in ‘poor condition’ and ‘in desperate need of refurbishment’.

The Osbournes moved into the property back in 1980, before departing the vacancy in the 1990s.

It was at the house in 1989, when the rocker famously tried to kill Sharon while he was high on drugs, after which he wound up in an Amersham prison cell arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and was sent to rehab.

Beel House’s other well-known occupants have included Lady Caroline Cavendish in the 1830s, Colonel Abram Lyle of the Tate & Lyle sugar company from 1909 to 1920 and the actor Sir Dirk Bogarde who bought it in 1954.

The house may date to Tudor times and was also once owned by the Duke of Buckingham, according to Amersham Museum.

Its current owners Mr Yershov and Mrs Romanov are directors of VLG.FILM, a London-registered subsidiary of its California-based parent company Volga.

Mr Yershov is the CEO of Volga, which has distributed blockbusters to Russia and the Baltic countries.
