We’ve all sat around in a pub with our mates, claiming that running a pub would be a right laugh, and with the amount of locals shutting down, the premises on the market are rife. Well, there’s a real contender of a pub that’s just been put on the market for sale in the Greater Manchester town of Bolton, for those who actually want to kick their landlord plans into action, by the name of Seven Stars.
This once-loved local pub is up for sale, or rent if that works, since the previous landlord has moved on − and Seven Stars is a confirmed steal given its pretty recent refurbishment and near-perfect condition. The property comprises a two storey mid terraced corner building of stone elevations set beneath a pitched slate covered roof. To the rear are single storey flat roof extensions, making the most of the space.
Externally to the rear there is an enclosed beer patio, perfect for punters and potential landlords alike to enjoy a tipple of a summer’s evening, and private yard with storage. To the front of the property there is an expanse of timber decking, fitting in more tables so you can follow that rare sun. Overall the site extends to 0.1 acres, which is pretty good for a plot of this kind, albeit in a semi-rural spot.
The property is situated fronting the B6196, at its junction with Tottington Road, in the South Turton area of Bolton. Seven Stars is located in a residential area three miles north of Bolton town centre, with local businesses fronting the B road, and the area is known for beautiful scenery and heritage buildings with Smithills Estate and The Last Drop nearby.
The ground floor trading accommodation of Seven Stars provides a public bar, lounge, games room and former dining area. The the ground floor also provides a central bar servery with pot wash, catering kitchen and stores to keep the business flowing smoothly.
To the basement there is a classic beer cellar and store, as you’d expect from a traditional pub like this. Fixtures and fittings with the exception of all tills, IT equipment and leased items can be included by way of separate negotiation, so post sale you’d be well on your way to setting up Seven Stars as a functioning pub again.
Not only is the pub ready and waiting to function again, the first floor also provides five bedrooms, an office, kitchen, bathroom and lounge. With a separate entrance from the front of the pub, the accommodation is perfect for a family home for the landlord, or perhaps to explore the traditional tavern angle, offering B&B style stays as pubs originally would.
Offers on Seven Stars pub are invited for the freehold interest in the property with vacant possession − alternatively rental offers are invited for a new Free of Tie lease. The pub is listed in the 2023 Rating List with a Rateable Value of £15,000.
