The Golden Fleece offers a great opportunity to re-open an existing pub but also offers huge development potential. The property sits in a good size plot with large car park, two storey barn and rear yard. The barn sits within the car park and could be converted to residential accommodation subject to the necessary planning permissions.
The pub is spacious with a large bar set up with a good amount of bar tables, a pool table and darts board. There is a separate dining room, large commercial kitchen, prep kitchen and good storage. The pub could easily re open and trade again.
Upstairs is a four bedroom apartment, this is currently accessed independently, although the internal staircase could be re-opened, it has been blocked off. The accommodation has in the past provided guest accommodation, having three en suite letting rooms. There is a kitchen, lounge and dining room/ bedroom four. This could be guest accommodation, owners flat, or a separate letting property
The flat and the pub run independently with separate heating systems and utilities.
Outside, the property fronts on to the main street. There is a good rear yard with large car park and extra parking at the front.
