Old Watling Street, Flamstead, St. Albans, Hertfordshire, AL3

Development plot with lapsed planning for a detached bungalow.

Description

A gently sloping plot of about 0.95 acres on the outskirts of the village of Flamstead with views over the valley towards the village. The property has lapsed planning consent for demolition of existing outbuildings and the erection of a single new dwelling with a new access. The consent was granted on the 30th November 2020 and full details can be found on the Dacorum planning portal, reference 20/03708/FUL. The following link will take you to the planning page:


Access to the site is from River Hill and the planning was for a two bedroom single storey detached bungalow with parking area. This planning was initially submitted when the plot was smaller and the current owner acquired an additional section. As the planning will need to be re-submitted by any new owner, it may be possible to apply for a larger house than the most recent application allowed for.
