Big Motoring World founder Peter Waddell is putting his historic, Greater London country estate on the market. Holwood House, which has been the residence of a prime minister and hosted scientists and statesman, is listed with Knight Frank for £23.5 million ($31.1 million).

The 59-year-old-Waddell, who says he’s retiring and going to live full time in Spain—where he has a replica of Holwood House—has a story to tell about when he first bought the place in 2018. It coincided with another big event in his life: the birth of his son.
