Description

The property comprises the Grade II listed former Royal Oak Pub which measures approximately 623 Sq. M (6705 Sq. Ft) Gross internal area. The property sits on a total site area of 0.29 acre and comprises approximately 26 car parking spaces which have previously generated an income stream, however, the owner has not actively sought to maintain this.

Full planning consent was granted for the conversion of existing public house/hotel into 10 apartments and two offices on part of the ground floor in 2015 which has subsequently expired.

The property may have potential for alternative uses subject to gaining the necessary planning consents.

Location

The property occupies a prominent position on the high street within the market town of Cheadle, providing convenient access to a range of amenities including independent retailers, public houses, cafes and supermarkets. Furthermore, the property benefits from excellent road connectivity via the A521 and A50, which provide links to Stoke-on-Trent and the wider region.

Planning & Supporting Information.

A planning application for 'Conversion of existing public house/hotel into 10 apartments and two (B1) offices on part of the ground floor and demolition of brick lean-to on the rear elevation' was approved 12/10/2015 (Ref; smd/2014/0789).

A more recent application for "Proposed conversion of existing public house/hotel into 9 apartments" was refused at appeal on 15th January 2024 (ref; Ref: App/B3438/W/22/3308406). The renewed application looked to implement additional residential; units on the ground floor, which the local authority deemed unacceptable as 'proposals for residential use at ground floor level in primary shopping frontages will not be supported'.
