JKSW Architects stated in mid-2011 that they had a brief to secure planning approval for a development of five contemporary houses within the grounds, to restore Beltwood house "''to its former glory''", to enlarge the small Gate House, and to restore the grounds. They worked with Alan Baxter & Associates (heritage consultants) and Lloyd Bore (landscape and gardens). English Heritage, in their October 2011 publication ''Heritage at Risk'', described the condition of the property as "fair", with the observation: "''Building contains fine interiors, but currently vacant and suffering effects of water ingress. The curtilage buildings (stables, lodge, two cottages and animal store) are in a poor state of repair.''" In November 2011 the property was again put on the market through Hamptons International estate agents with an asking price of £5,750,000. The particulars include full floor plans and photographs. In 2013, a visualisation of plans for development of the site, including restoration of the house and formal gardens and the construction of eight new houses, were published by Thomas Stoney Bryans for John Smart Architects. Planning permission was granted in March 2018 for the current owner, through his architects Cuozzo Fleming Architects, to create 13 residential units on the site. Seven of these were to be formed through subdivision of the house, five were new-build dwellings within the grounds, and the
