THE WHITE HART CHURCH STREET MODBURY DEVON PL21 0QW

A SUBSTANTIAL WELL PRESENTED FREEHOUSE OCCUPYING IN OUR OPINION THE PREMIER TRADING POSITION IN THIS RENOWNED SOUTH DEVON TOWN.

THE PREMISES HAVE IN RECENT YEARS UNDERGONE A COMPLETE AND SYMPATHETIC REFURBISHMENT PROGRAMME AND OFFER:

GROUND FLOOR BAR AND RESTAURANT WITH OUTSIDE COVERE TERRACE,FIRST FLOOR FUNCTION ROOM AND COCKTAIL BAR,5 LETTING BEDROOMS,TOGETHER WITH SEPARATE 1 BED COTTAGE STUDIO

THE PREMISES ARE CURRENTLY CLOSED

Business

The White hart has been trading for about 6 years after it had undergone a complete refurbishment programme having fallen into disrepair under the previous ownership. The business has we believe a loyal following although personal circumstances forced the closure of the business in mid December.

Unfortunately as it is the freeholder now selling we are not party to any trading figures.

The Vendor developed the premises to the present high standard to ensure the community did not lose the White Hart including the traditional Assembly Rooms used for Auctions, conferences christenings, weddings and birthday parties Etc. as well as being a central meeting place for local groups and societies

We are of the opinion that the White Hart offers the experienced hands on licensee/caterer an excellent opportunity being the only free house in the town, and being able to draw on such a wide catchment area.
