But following an application submitted to Watford Borough Council, its future use looks to be a care home.
The council gave permission to change the use of the building in a decision dated July 20.
A proposed floor plan published in the planning portal by agent London Consultants Ltd indicates the care home will include seven bedrooms, as well as a kitchen and dining area, living room, and office.
The council had no concerns that converting the building to a care home would worsen traffic or parking.

Eleven neighbours were sent letters about the plans with no objections received.
