A property developer has announced it has bought a former family-run service station.

Bugler Homes says it is “pleased” to have completed the purchase of Rickmansworth Service Station in Victoria Road.

The service station closed earlier this year after owners Sharon and Joseph Lewin decided to retire after 38 years.

“We will approach this site with our customary focus on high quality design and attention to detail; and look forward to announcing more as we progress with our plans.

“The team would like to thank Ben Howard of Perry Holt & Co. for his work on this latest acquisition.”
