SOLD - The Olde Tavern, Pontefract

SOLD - The Olde Tavern, Pontefract

The Olde Tavern is a very traditional pub.  It is located on a busy main road close to Pontefract town centre, the racecourse and famously King Richard III favourite castle.  Surrounded by commerce and lots of industry, as well as densely populated residential communities, the pub enjoys a good level of trade throughout the day.  The site also has tremendous development potential, given its size and location.

THE BUSINESS - Very popular with families for its all-day carvery, large beer garden and bird aviary attraction.  The pub enjoys an almost perfect 50/50 split between food and wet sales.  The pub would suit any style of operation, be it a sports pub or alternative food restaurant.  The owner has operated the pub very successfully for the last 12 years, but now needs to sell, as he has a specific health condition that will limit his ability to effectively work within the business.

THE PROPERTY - Internally, the building has an expansive internal space measuring approximately 438 sq metres (4,712.6 sq ft) to include a superbly equipped commercial kitchen capable of putting out 300+ Sunday dinners, a spacious dining area accommodating 80 customers, darts and pool rooms, lounge bar.  Private, self-contained owners / managers accommodation on the first floor with kitchen, lounge, two double bedrooms and house bathroom, all recently refurbished.  Decked terrace with seating and a large beer garden with children’s play area and bird aviary.  Several parking spaces, plus an agreement with a neighbouring business to use additional parking spaces evenings and weekends. 

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL - The entire site is approximately 0.37ac (16,152 sq ft) and would therefore be of obvious interest to developers looking to build a residential scheme on the site.  Provisional architects’ plans have been drawn up and it is believed that there is adequate space for ten to twelve homes on the site, subject to planning consent.  EPC Band C.

SOLD - Carpenters Arms, Ossett

TOWN CENTRE PROMINENT FREEHOLD BAR AND RESTAURANT in Ossett

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. EPC Band B.

This is a truly unique opportunity to acquire a large, centrally located property in a well-connected and growing town.  The freehold sale represents excellent value for money and offers significant potential for redevelopment or re-use.  Early viewing is strongly recommended to appreciate the scale, flexibility and potential this site offers.
