Pub/bar for sale in 36 Forest Street, Piddington, Northamptonshire NN7

Opportunity

This detached stone building and plot to the rear is available freehold. Situated in the affluent Northamptonshire village of Piddington, the building has lots of character and would be a fantastic opportunity for a new operator to create a new venue to serve the local community and surrounding area.

Location

Situated on a rectangular plot measuring approximately 0.8 acres, the pub is located to the front of the site in a roadside position. It is stone built under a slate roof. Located on the western side of Forest Road in Piddington, this village is located between the M1 and the A428. Northampton is a short distance away (6 miles) to the north west and a number of popular and desirable villages can be found nearby.

Arrangement

The property measures approximately 236sqm (gia floor area). Internally, the premises has four principal trade areas; a snug bar (12 covers), a main bar with inglenook fireplace and two games rooms, both of which are accessed off the main bar. Both bars have their own bar serveries. A commercial kitchen and utility room can also be found at first floor.

At first floor, the manager’s accommodation comprises a double bedroom, lounge and bathroom and kitchen. The loft conversion has created a master bedroom with dressing room/office and bathroom.

Externally, the vehicular access to the side serves a customer car park. At the rear is a well appointed external trade area, comprising a terrace with outdoor bar, smoking shelter and bbq as well as a garden laid to lawn containing children’s play equipment. A large paddock can be found beyond, accessed via a field gate from the car park. This space is currently underutilised but benefits from planning permission for residential development.

Planning

Planning permission was granted for four new dwellings on the land to the rear of the site. The scheme comprises 2 x 2 bed houses (plots 1 and 2) and 2 x 3 bed houses (plots 3 and 4). The proposed development includes the reconfiguration of the access and public house car park.

A full planning pack including architectural drawings, topographical survey, Phase 2 Ground Investigation among other supporting reports and surveys can be provided upon request.
