Grade II Listed Georgian Guest House For Sale

Business description

This grand and impressive Grade II Listed detached Georgian house was built in around 1810, though parts of the property are believed to date from much earlier, when it was originally a farm house. The property was run as a small hotel and restaurant for many years, the current owners moving in two years ago and undertaking a major programme of modernisation to create what is now a most contemporary and stylish Guest House. There are 13 letting rooms (2 of which are two bedroom family suites), 9 having en-suite bathrooms, which are divided between the main house and the converted Dairy and Stables in the courtyard. The guests also have a dining room and lounge with a bar (licensed to serve alcohol with lunch and evening meals). The owner's accommodation is substantial and includes a separate annexe which is ideal if two parts of the same family are looking to run a business together. The property has a large mature and very private walled garden and a two storey stone barn which might be converted to add extra guest accommodation (subject to planning). There is ample parking. The Guest House business is growing and there is potential to grow still further, perhaps by running as a small hotel with restaurant.
