Combe Down is a popular residential village on the southern edge of the World Heritage City of Bath, Somerset, within easy reach of Bath city centre and its wealth of shops, restaurants and visitor attractions. The Forester & Flower sits on Bradford Road, one of the main routes into Combe Down, in a predominantly residential setting with a strong local following. The property benefits from a main bus route into Bath passing close by, with services taking just a few minutes to reach the city centre - a real draw for both passing trade and staff commuting in from Bath itself. Combe Down's elevated position also gives it a village-like feel of its own, with attractive stone cottages and green spaces including Combe Down Quarry and Firs Field close at hand, while remaining just a short hop from everything Bath has to offer.

The Forester & Flower is offered for sale on a leasehold basis, free of tie. The asking price of £150,000 includes the leasehold property, trade fixtures, fittings and equipment, and the goodwill of the business, plus stock at valuation. The property is held on a 20-year lease, free of tie, commencing 17th December 2020, at a current rent of £30,000 per annum.
