Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this popular public house and restaurant, which was established in 1936 and which has been in our client's careful hands since 1991. The business is only now being placed on the market due to our client's wish to retire. The public house and restaurant generates a turnover in the region of £500,000 per annum with a gross profit of 45%, derived from the sale of a range of alcoholic beverages and hot and cold meals. The Seven Stars Inn boasts an enviable reputation for quality food and service and has become a popular destination pub. There are excellent reviews on various web sites. The premises boast 7-bedroom private accommodation and a separate 2-bedroom cottage. There is scope for a new owner to convert some of the bedrooms into letting accommodation to generate further income. We feel this represents a rare opportunity to acquire a freehold, free of tie, public house in such a delightful location. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
The Seven Stars Inn occupies a prominent location in a delightful rural setting close to the villages of Moreton and East Burton in Dorset. The county town of Dorchester lies approximately 8 miles to the west. Moreton is famed as the burial place of TE Lawrence, or Lawrence of Arabia as he was also known, and his strong association with the village draws visitors from all over the world. Dorchester and the surrounding areas are desirable places in which to live and work, surrounded by beautiful countryside and steeped in history. The Seven Stars Inn is easily accessible via either the A352, approximately 1.5 miles away, or the A35, which lies 5 miles to the north.
