The land is separate from the pub and does not form part of its curtilage. The property is adjacent to a listed building (List Entry Number 1174036) but is unlikely to constrain development. However, the site is not within a Conservation Area. The site is located within the Dacorum Borough Council (‘DBC’). The site forms part of wider area, Apsley, that comprises a mixture of industrial, office and residential uses. <br /> <br /> The site whilst in the greenbelt, abuts the settlement boundary to its north and east boundaries. The majority of the site is within Flood Risk Zone 1 with small areas in Flood Risk Zone 2 and 3 due to the proximity of the site to the Grand Union Canal. <br /> <br /> The emerging replacement Dacorum Local Plan was submitted to the Secretary of State on 11th March 2025 and is currently under examination. Due to the advanced stage of the Local Plan, policies contained within it will be a material planning consideration in the decision-making process. <br /> <br /> All parties are advised to undertake their own due diligence and satisfy themselves to the chances of securing a planning permission.<br><br><strong>Local Authority</strong><br>Dacorum Borough Council<br /> www.dacorum.gov.uk<br><br><strong>Tenure</strong><br>Freehold (HD439425) subject to vacant possession.<br><br><strong>Guide Price</strong><br>Offers are invited on an unconditional and conditional basis.<br><br><strong>VAT</strong><br>VAT is applicable at the appropriate rate.<br><br><strong>Services</strong><br>All parties to make their own enquiries to the serviceability to the land.<br><br><strong>Viewing</strong><br>For a formal viewing strictly by appointment with Savills.<br><br><strong>Anti-Money Laundering</strong><br>Regulations require Savills to conduct various checks on purchasers and tenants.
