Leisure and hospitality specialist Sidney Phillips has brought to marke4t an iconic canal-side pub and restaurant in Worcestershire.
The Navigation Inn is positioned in the village of Greensforge close to the Worcestershire/Staffordshire border. The area is well-known for its luscious rural countryside and despite being immediately adjacent to the West Midlands Conurbation it holds a very rural aspect and as a residential area commands some of the highest property values in the Midlands. However, the real jewel in its location is its position on the banks of the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal. Adjacent to the Greensforge Lock (Number 37) it is a popular tourist location and hosts many moorings where the narrowboaters can alight in particular from the food and the hospitality that the Navigation Inn provides. Also adjacent is the Ashwood Marina another popular mooring position where many boats are wintered.
The Navigation Inn is an historic property of considerable character, standing alongside the canal and in particular the lock which can be viewed from the pub’s garden. It stands in a large plot of 0.91 of an acre with a large area of uncultivated land ripe for exploitation possibly for use as a campsite etc subject to obtaining the required consents. It benefits from a three-section bar and restaurant space with 60 covers, a five-bedroom owner’s accommodation and sizeable car park.
The business has a well-established level of trade which ash undoubted scope to be extended and improved upon if the business was to be in the hands of younger owner operators.
The freehold interest of the Navigation Inn is available off an asking price of £995,000.
