The land immediately across the road from the pub has a planning application in with the Local Authority for two holiday cottages.
There is also an opportunity to purchase the attached Nosters Cottage, by separate negotiation.
The Opportunity - The Freemasons Arms presents a fantastic opportunity to acquire an established business with an excellent reputation.
The Freemasons would suit an operator looking to replicate our client's model but realistically an owner-operator living on site would be best positioned to drive the business forward, maximise its potential and afford themselves the benefits of living on site.

The restaurant area is separated by a chimney breast with wood fuelled stove and seats a total of 36 customers. Ancillary areas include a beer cellar, fully equipped commercial grade catering kitchen, storage areas as well as customer toilets.
Fixtures And Fittings - Fixtures and fittings are included with the exception of items that are personal to our client.
External Details - There is outside seating to the front of the pub providing for around 48 customers. This area has recently been redeveloped and improved, with the introduction of an Indian Stone patio. The car park is across the main road and there is ample parking elsewhere in the village.
Owner's Accommodation - At first floor level, accessed via an internal staircase behind the bar, is recently refurbished and very well presented, two bedroom owner's accommodation, with open plan lounge/kitchen area and shower room.
Trading Information - Gross turnover for the period Jul 21 - June 22 is c. £396,000 . Sensible forecasts once fully reopened for a 12 month period, suggest a gross turnover of c. £446,000.

Other Property - Opposite the pub and adjacent to the car park is an area of land, currently occupied by sheds used for storage, which has a planning application in with the local authority for the construction of two self-contained holiday accommodation units with associated parking. The development plot is to be included in the price of the pub at £495,000. Hambleton Council Planning Ref. No: 21/01427/FUL - Construction of 2 self contained holiday accommodation units with associated parking

Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
