A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a substantial freehold public house with extensive five-bedroom owner's accommodation, offered for sale with vacant possession and no onward chain. Occupying a prominent position within the highly sought-after town of Beaminster, The Knapp Inn is being sold for the first time in 30 years, presenting an exceptional and unique opportunity for owner-occupiers, investors, hospitality operators, or those seeking a lifestyle business with generous living accommodation. The Public House The Knapp Inn offers a wealth of character and versatility, with a variety of well-proportioned internal trading areas designed to cater for a range of customers and events. The main bar area is fully equipped and operational, providing a welcoming environment for patrons, whilst additional seating areas create flexible spaces for dining, social gatherings, and private functions. Further benefits include a dedicated pool table area, traditional skittle alley, extensive storage facilities, barrel cellar, office space, and a commercial-style kitchen shared with the residential accommodation. The property offers significant scope for continued use as a public house and hospitality venue, whilst purchasers may also wish to explore the potential for alternative uses, including residential conversion, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions and consents. Any interested parties should rely on their own investigations and enquiries with the local planning authority, as no guarantee can be given that consent for any change of use would be forthcoming. Owner's Accommodation Complementing the business premises is a generous five-bedroom owner's residence, providing spacious and flexible living accommodation rarely found with properties of this nature. The accommodation comprises a comfortable reception/sitting room and, to the first floor, five well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from an en-suite shower room, whilst a further separate shower room serves the remaining bedrooms, making the accommodation ideally suited for family occupation or staff housing. Outside To the rear of the public house is an enclosed courtyard-style beer garden, providing an attractive outdoor space for customers to enjoy throughout the warmer months. Beyond this is access to a private parking area with space for one or two vehicles. The residential accommodation enjoys its own separate south-facing courtyard garden, creating a private retreat away from the business premises and offering the perfect setting for al fresco dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing in the sun. To the front of the property is a designated outdoor smoking area, further enhancing the facilities available to customers. Situation The Knapp Inn occupies a desirable position within the thriving Dorset town of Beaminster, a picturesque and historic market town nestled amidst the stunning West Dorset countryside. Renowned for its vibrant community, independent shops, cafés and excellent access to nearby walking routes and the Jurassic Coast, Beaminster continues to attract both residents and visitors alike, making it an attractive location for a hospitality business and family home. Agent's Note Freehold public houses with substantial owner's accommodation rarely become available, particularly those held within the same ownership for three decades. The Knapp Inn therefore represents a unique opportunity to acquire an established and versatile property with significant lifestyle, business and investment potential.
