The Lion Brasserie, a popular pub in East Bergholt, is now on Rightmove with offers starting around £675,000
East Bergholt: The Lion Brasserie, located on The Street, is up for grabs on Rightmove. The asking price is around £675,000, and it’s listed as The Red Lion by Christie & Co.
This place isn’t just any pub; it was named pub of the year at the East of England Tourism Awards in 2023. Pretty impressive, right?
The building has been fully renovated and has five furnished bedrooms for letting. Plus, the bar and dining area can host up to 80 guests. There’s even a lovely landscaped garden!
What’s more, there’s planning permission for a restaurant extension that could add 50 more seats. Sounds like a great opportunity for someone looking to invest.
The listing highlights how the current owner has really spruced up the place, using high-quality materials while keeping some charming architectural features like open fireplaces and wood beam ceilings.
On the upper floors, there are five letting rooms, all furnished to a high standard. And there’s a large piece of land at the back that’s also part of the freehold, which could be sold separately for development.
This land has planning permission for five homes and a pub store with two extra en-suite rooms. So, whoever buys the pub might want to consider that as an added bonus!
Additionally, the pub is equipped with disabled-access restrooms, a commercial kitchen, and even private parking for the owners. If you’re interested, check out rightmove.co.uk for more details.
