Licensed freehold pub with parking and trading yard, close to town centre..
Freehold two‑storey Tudor‑Revival pub with basement beer cellar
A substantial two‑storey freehold pub with traditional Tudor Revival character, positioned on A525 at the edge of Newcastle‑under‑Lyme. The ground floor trading areas include a lounge, public bar with games area, central servery and customer WCs, with a rear beer terrace and external trading yard. First‑floor living provides four bedrooms and ancillary rooms; basement stores and a beer cellar add practical back‑of‑house space. The property benefits from a premises licence and an EPC of B‑48.
The site offers immediate trading potential: road frontage, off‑street parking for three vehicles, a single‑storey garage and a small enclosed yard provide space for customers and deliveries. It sits within walking distance of the town centre and local convenience outlets, supporting a neighbourhood trade. Vacant possession is offered freehold, with unconditional offers invited over £185,000 plus VAT.
Buyers should note material considerations: VAT is payable on the sale, fixtures and branded or leased items are excluded unless separately agreed, and mains services are verbally confirmed only. The wider area is classified as deprived/hampered neighbourhoods which may limit premium pricing or catchment spend. The building appears structurally typical of its era but an internal inspection is recommended to confirm condition, plant, electrics and any refurbishment costs required to reopen or repurpose the site.
This property suits an operator or investor seeking a neighbourhood pub with conversion potential or a hands‑on refit project. Its licence, central location and generous internal footprint give flexibility, but realistic budgets should allow for fit‑out, re‑branding and possible ongoing maintenance given the age and mixed commercial/residential layout.
