This substantial freehold property in the historic town of Swanage, Dorset, offers a rare opportunity to acquire a bar with spacious and versatile accommodation on the upper floors, ideal for AirBNB or B&B purposes. The property, thought to have been built in the early 20th century, boasts attractive front elevations of natural Purbeck stone under a slate roof, and is situated in a good trading position near the Old Stone Quay. The business has recently closed due to the retirement of the current owners, but has generated a good income as a licensed bistro for over 30 years. The ground floor bistro area can accommodate 38 covers, with a character corner bar and beamed ceiling, while the well-equipped kitchen has stainless steel worktops and an extensive range of commercial kitchen appliances. The upper floors offer spacious owners' accommodation, including a large living room with balcony and double doors leading to a garden room, as well as two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The top floor is configured as a self-contained flat with double bedroom, study area, and owners' kitchen area. The property is connected to all mains services and has a rateable value of £5,300.
