SOLD BY WILSON REAL ESTATE - This family run pub has been the heart of the village for many years. Records of an Alehouse on the site of The Bowl Inn date back to the 1700s, with the name first appearing in 1853 when it appears in documents detailing the sale of the pub from Samuel John Sankey to George Ash.
Currently its opening hours by choice, are Thursday / Friday / Saturday / Sunday and at present is just a drinking pub. The main kitchen is behind the bar, giving the new owners potential to serve food should they desire.
Downstairs the current layout has a generous main bar area with separate snug room, all offering a variety of seating areas plus two open fires and log burner.
Upstairs the owner accommodation consists of 3 double bedrooms, 2 shower rooms and lounge overlooking the glorious pub garden to the rear.
Outside there is a 2 storey barn currently used for storage and as a utlity space, but could be used for multiple things (subject to planning consent) to add further value to the business. The garden here, is the jewel in the crown, offering a vast seating capacity whilst overlooking the fields beyond.
Every August the pub hosts its very own beer festival, this year it celebrates 20 years, attracting people from all over Kent & beyond.
Details of accounts can be provided to serious buyers following qualification.
The pub decor consists of an antique theme throughout, helping keep the history maintained. All items within the pub are negotiable so that the new owners can continue to retain the character.
