Description

Welcome to The Green Man, an iconic Grade II listed building with a rich history that echoes through the cobbled streets of Aylesbury's town centre. FOR SALE with FREEHOLD title or TO LET. Once a cherished public house thought to be frequented by renowned artists such as David Bowie and Motorhead's Lemmy, The Green Man now stands empty, awaiting its next chapter. Situated adjacent to the archway that led to the world-famous Friars Music Club, this historic gem offers a unique opportunity for renovation and repurposing. With its charming facade and four floors of potential, including a basement, bar area, and a two-bedroom apartment.
Whether envisioned as a residential dwelling, offices, retail space, or a revived pub or restaurant, this Grade II listed landmark is a testament to Aylesbury's vibrant past and a canvas for its future. With its prime location in the bustling town centre and proximity to the Exchange, The Green Man beckons to be restored to its former glory and reclaimed as a cornerstone of Aylesbury's cultural heritage.
With a net internal area of 2,359.5sq.ft. (excluding basement), there is great potential for conversion. Situated opposite the entrance to Friars Square Shopping Centre and close to the entrance to Hale Leys Shopping Centre, The Green Man benefits from its prime location in the bustling town centre. It also enjoys proximity to the Exchange, an exciting new development featuring restaurants and amenity spaces such as Odeon Cinema, Nandos, Wagamama, Zizzi’s and Wetherspoons. Don't miss this chance to restore and reimagine The Green Man and become part of its legendary legacy.

Situated in the heart of Aylesbury town centre just a short walk from the London bound mainline train station which connects to London Marylebone in just under an hour. Aylesbury is situated between High Wycombe and Milton Keynes with good transport links to both. Well connected by road and rail Aylesbury is home to many commuters. As well having strong transport links the Garden Town of Aylesbury is surrounded by areas of outstanding beauty and is just a few miles from Combe Hill the highest viewpoint in the Chiltern Hills. The area benefits from many sought after and high achieving Schools, an array of recreational, leisure and shopping facilities. All of which helps to make Aylesbury an attractive proposition for property investors, and new and existing residents alike.
