Accommodation
The property is a detached country pub which comprises a two-storey whitewashed building with pitched tiled roof, traditional chimney stacks and other period details. The pub fronts an area for external seating and car parking which is accessible directly from the main road.
The main building features green-painted timber window frames and doors, with a mixture of sash and casement styles, adding to its character. Several windows are currently boarded, and the exterior shows signs of age and weathering, providing potential for sympathetic restoration.
Internally the property is arranged to accommodate bar area, commercial kitchen and seating on the ground floor, with pivate accommodation on the first floor. The ground floor requires substantial fit-out and refurbishment to trade as a pub.
The property benefits from external car parking spaces and is on a plot of 1.51 acres.
