Period freehouse with significant land and strong upside for operators.
46-cover restaurant plus cosy country bar
A large, period freehouse with established wet and dry trade and clear income opportunities. The Staff of Life offers a 46-cover restaurant, cosy country bar, three en-suite B&B rooms and substantial owners’ duplex accommodation, all sitting with a large car park and c.2 acres of additional land on a separate title. The current operators have run the business successfully for 16 years and are selling due to retirement.
For an operator or investor there is tangible upside: current turnover is circa £350,000 from limited opening hours, and the three guest rooms are not actively marketed — the listing describes potential B&B income in excess of £100,000 if let on OTA platforms. The separate land and large plot offer scope for additional letting units (caravans/log cabins) or other residential/commercial schemes, subject to planning.
Buyers should note material drawbacks plainly. The property sits in an area with medium flood risk and higher local crime statistics; the local area is relatively deprived. Images and description indicate historic fabric with roof issues and replacement windows likely required, so some renovation and maintenance are needed. Tenure is not specified and any change of use or development requires planning consent.
Off-street parking for around 23 vehicles, excellent mobile signal and reasonable broadband support trading. Fixtures and fittings are available by separate negotiation (c. £25,000 guide). Offered at £380,000, the building’s size, plot and trading history make it a viable project for an experienced operator or investor willing to invest in fabric repairs and uplift the business or convert STP.
