17th Century Coaching Inn on Busy Market Town High Street for Sale

Posted by Sidney Phillips on 31st March 2021 -

The 17th Century coaching inn and coach house is situated in the busy market town high street of Knighton.

The property has three character interconnecting trade areas, five well appointed en-suite letting bedrooms, outside seating area and large private accommodation.

The George & Dragon holds an excellent location at the centre of the busy market town, which helps attract a large number of customers throughout the year.

The building itself is reputed to date from the 17th Century and appears to be constructed in the main of timber and stone, it also has the benefit of a former Coach House which has been sympathetically developed to offer five excellent letting bedrooms and further ancillary areas.

Since purchasing the business in 2005, out clients have developed a very well run and profitable business. However, through their desire to retire they have let the premises since October 2019 and therefore current trading information is unavailable.

The market town of Knighton sits within Powys on the banks of the River Teme straddling the English/Welsh border. It also sits on a well preserved section of Offa’s Dyke which is a very popular walking route along the English/Welsh Marches.

The town has a rich history being linked to the Iron Age but grew during the years and became a very important centre for the war trade during the 15th Century and later an important point of the two Drover routes from Montgomery to Hereford and from London to Aberystwyth.

Knighton is now a pleasant market town that offers a commercial centre for the surrounding area, that also attracts a large number of tourists especially walkers and cyclists enjoying the many nearby routes of Offa’s Dyke and Glyndwr’s Way.

Sidney Phillips have been instructed to offer the Freehold off an asking price of £395,000.
