It is believed the Fosters bought Osbaston House for £1.15 million in October 2004
The mainly Georgian house, over three storeys, with a gravel driveway, was described at the time as having 16.7 acres of land, and included three main reception rooms, an orangery, five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a cellar, woodland, paddocks, outbuildings and access to fish on the River Morda.
One neighbour said the Fosters had put up stables, made an exercise yard and divided up the fields.
