For Sale by Auction, a Grade II Listed public house with living accommodation upstairs, garage and large car park in Bradpole near Bridport, Dorset, in need of some renovation.
The Property
The Kings Head itself is a Grade II Listed public house dating from the late 18th or early 19th century, and is an excellent example of a traditional West Dorset coaching inn. Constructed principally of local rendered stone beneath a pitched slate roof, the building displays the restrained proportions and simple elegance characteristic of the Georgian period, with later Victorian alterations reflecting its long-established use as a public house. More recently, a single storey 1970's flat roof extension has been added with a cellar below. There is also a garage and large customer car park. The building measures approximately 291 sq m (3,130 sq ft).
Situated on the upper floors is well-proportioned private owner's accommodation, providing on-site living ideally suited to owner-occupation or management use. The residential accommodation is separate from the trading areas and offers the convenience of living on the premises whilst maintaining privacy from the business.
Some refurbishment is required to update and refresh the property.
Situation
The Kings Head occupies a highly visible position on St Andrews Road (A3066), one of the principal routes into the historic market town of Bridport. Situated at the edge of the established residential community of Bradpole, the property benefits from excellent roadside prominence, consistent passing traffic and a loyal local catchment, whilst remaining within easy reach of Bridport town centre.
The surrounding area comprises a well-established mix of residential neighbourhoods, schools, local businesses and employment areas, creating year-round trade potential from both local residents and passing visitors.
Bridport is one of Dorset's most vibrant market towns, renowned for its independent retailers, twice-weekly street market, thriving arts and food scene, and year-round calendar of festivals and events. The town serves a wide rural hinterland and attracts significant visitor numbers throughout the year.
