Pub/bar for sale in Licenced Trade, Pubs & Clubs WF5, West Yorkshire

Town centre prominent freehold bar and restaurant in Ossett for Sale.

A well-known venue in the town centre. A huge, no expense spared refurbishment project resulted in a modern bar and bistro whilst respectfully maintaining a number of the original features. The original brewhouse dates back to 1768 whilst the cottages date further back still. The bar and restaurant was leased to a management team until recently, but is now available with vacant possession. Although currently closed, the venue remains comprehensively fitted and equipped and is in turn-key ready condition to open its doors and trade. Under its original ownership, the business was the most popular drinking and dining venue in Ossett town centre, and with little effort would quickly re-establish itself as the main draw in the town. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold, free of tie, licensed property which could be leased to competent new tenants for a rental return, or run by owner operators. Of interest to breweries, craft ale producers, pub groups or a food led team of professionals, as well as commercial property landlords looking for an excellent return on capital invested.

The property - Probably the best location in the town centre as it has profiles from both the town main public car parks, as well as from the pedestrianised shopping and market precincts on Bank Street. The Bank Street entrance enjoys a huge private outside forecourt capable of accommodating scores of customers during those warmer months. The property has a total floor area of circa 321 sq m (3,455 sq ft) and includes a bar and restaurant with commercially equipped catering kitchen on the ground floor, plus an elaborate central feature staircase to the restaurants upper floor. There is potential to extend the restaurant through to provide a private dining room on the first floor. Ancillary areas include customer and staff toilets and managers office.
