Former public house with residential accommodation and development potential
Located within an established, predominantly residential area, this substantial former public house has now ceased trading and offers an interesting opportunity for investors, developers and owner occupiers.
The existing building provides extensive ground floor accommodation including former public bar and customer areas, commercial kitchen facilities and customer toilets. On the first floor is a self contained manager's flat providing three-bedroom accommodation.
Externally, the property benefits from a customer car park situated to the side, adding to the overall potential of the site.
The property could offer scope for reopening as licensed premises or alternative commercial/community uses. Alternatively, given its residential surroundings and the size of the existing building and site, there may be potential for conversion or comprehensive redevelopment to provide multiple residential units, subject to planning approval.
Business Rates According to the Valuation Office website the public house and premises has a current rateable value of £6,300 with effect from 1 April 2026.

Administration Fee: £1200 inc VAT payable on exchange of contracts.
