Freehold Guesthouse In Northern Ireland For Sale

Business description

Bag a Business Ltd is delighted to offer for sale this unique listed property, which is trading as a licensed guest house, bar and restaurant at the weekends. The property includes the main 7 bedroom house, an annex bar/restaurant and an enclosed courtyard surrounded by stone built buildings. The courtyard area is not listed and could be developed as required. Due to the nature of the buildings, grants are available to renovate the structures. The Hillhouse was established in 1988 by our clients, who are semi retired and have been operating it as a hobby. They are now wishing to fully retire and let a larger organisation take over and realise the property's full potential. To fully appreciate the scope for the property one would really need to take a tour of the premises. You can check their website out at www.hillhouse-ni.co.uk . Possibilities include a guesthouse mixed with self catering apartments in the stone built courtyard buildings. A large function room would lend itself to a hotel complex. The property has two drinks licences and a civil wedding licence so the possibilities are endless. This is a unique opportunity to acquire a substantial, listed Georgian estate and we would strongly urge early enquiries.
