A substantial 2.4-acre riverside development parcel positioned between the Grand Union Canal and the River Chess, offering direct waterside character and generous flat ground. The site includes a large detached house, outbuildings and mainly open land, with services reported to have been laid in preparation for development.

Previously the subject of a 2024 outline application for two four-storey blocks (97 flats) which was withdrawn; comprehensive technical reports prepared for that process are available on the local authority website. The site is considered suitable for residential, retirement/care home or other commercial uses, and the seller will consider sales subject to planning or unconditional offers.

Important constraints are material: the site sits in a high flood-risk area and local recorded crime levels are high. Tenure is not specified. These factors will influence design, insurance costs, drainage strategy and viability. Access is via Church Warf, within a ten-minute walk of Rickmansworth station and the town centre, and about ten minutes’ drive from the M25.
