Summary - BLACKSMITHS ARMS PH, MAIN STREET YO60 7RJ
5 bed 5 bath Link Detached House
Large freehold village pub with five-bed living above — strong conversion or reopening potential.
Large traditional village public house with five-bedroom accommodation upstairs
A rare freehold opportunity in the heart of Flaxton: Blacksmiths Arms comprises a large traditional village public house with five-bedroom living accommodation above. The main bar, dining room, three prep/kitchen areas, cellar and generous rear yard offer strong scope for a returning pub business, hospitality conversion, or mixed commercial/residential use (any change of use subject to necessary consents).
The building retains character features—exposed brickwork, beams and a pitched roof with chimneys—and sits on a very large plot with off-street parking and vehicular access. Vacant possession is offered and the property is not subject to VAT, simplifying a purchase for an operator or investor.
Important practical points: the pub has not traded for several years and will require refurbishment, recommissioning of services and licensing checks before reopening. Broadband speeds are slow despite excellent mobile signal, and updates to utilities and interiors should be expected. Buyers should allow for refurbishment costs and confirm any commercial compliance or planning requirements.
For an investor or operator, the location is attractive — a commuter village nine miles north of York with good road links (A64) and low local crime. The size, three kitchen/prep areas and five-bedroom accommodation create multiple income or operational scenarios, from reopening a traditional pub to a hospitality-led conversion or blended residential/commercial scheme.
