An unmistakable main-road freehold in a highly visible corner position, this two-storey Victorian public house sits on a substantial 0.3 acre site with a tarmac car park for 16 vehicles and a beer garden. The ground floor offers a large open-plan bar servery, lounge and games room plus a separate commercial kitchen; the first floor provides four bedrooms, a kitchen and a bathroom, giving immediate owner-operator flexibility or staff accommodation.
The building extends to around 6,578 sqft and benefits from UPVC double glazing, good mobile signal and fast broadband — practical advantages for trading or conversion. Its location close to Junction 7 of the M65 and fronting the busy A680 gives strong passing trade potential and easy access to surrounding towns in the Ribble Valley.
There is explicit redevelopment potential, subject to planning, for investors or developers seeking a mixed-use or hospitality scheme. The sizable plot could allow expanded parking or an alternative layout, though any change will require planning consent and surveys.
Buyers should note material negatives plainly: the property sits in a very deprived area with above-average crime rates, which may affect certain customer profiles and financing or insurance costs. The building shows signs that will need attention (potential damp and general renovation), so budget for refurbishment and professional inspections before committing.
