Sidney Phillips are delighted to announce that the Nags Head in Rochester has come to market, a great opportunity for a first-time buyer or experienced operator alike to take on a thriving business with the potential to further increase business with the introduction of a food offering.

The Nags Head is situated in the historic town of Rochester which forms part of the large urban area known as the Medway Towns with a population of approximately 250,000. Rochester is well known for its historic importance and houses a number of attractions including its Norman Cathedral and Castle, Eastgate House and the nearby Chatham Dockyards. The Nags Head occupies a notable and prominent three-storey public house situated along the old High Street, an important arterial road between Chatham and Rochester town centre. This Grade II listed property is understood to date from the eighteenth century and is conveniently positioned a ‘stones throw’ from the University For The Creative Arts, student halls and a major riverside development.

The property benefits from three trade areas, trade kitchen, three bedroom owners accommodation and a guest suite suitable for letting.

The Nags Head has been under the same ownership for the past 17 years and the current occupiers are only the second owners in the past 42 years, with the previous owner in residence for the preceding 25 years. The business is operated as a wet led local public house serving the needs of the surrounding residents as well as those walking into the town centre from Chatham and beyond, and is well known for its live music and quiz nights.

The leasehold interest of the Nags Head is available off an asking price of £100,000.

For further information about this pub for sale, other pubs for sale or how to buy a business please call Sidney Phillips on 01892 725900.
