Description
The White Hart is situated in the sought after Northamptonshire conservation area village of Grafton Regis which lies east of the A508 road approximately 8 miles (13 km) south of Northampton and 9 miles (14 km) north of Milton Keynes. The population of the civil parish (including Alderton) at the 2011 census was 253.
The nearest railway station can be found in Wolverton which operates on the West Coast Main Line, approximately 52 miles from Euston, between Milton Keynes Central and Northampton station. Regular village bus services can be accessed opposite the White Hart also allow travel to the large nearby towns of Northampton & Milton Keynes. The nearest airport is the London Luton International Airport which is located 33 miles south east.
The area benefits from a variety of notable landmarks and amenities such as the Easton Neston, a large Grade I listed baroque style country house, the Bury Mount Motte a former Norman fortification and scheduled ancient monument, as well as the Buckingham Thick Copse National Nature Reserve. Also found within the village is a brain injury rehabilitation clinic and 13th-century parish church.
The White Hart dates back to the mid 16th century and occupies a Grade II listed three-storey detached, part brick, part stone building under part thatched, slate & pan tiled roof. The property benefits from being located in an enviable position opposite the bus stop on the A508 Northampton Road.

OWNERS ACCOMMODATION
FIRST FLOOR
THREE DOUBLE BEDROOMS, one of which includes an en suite and dressing room. LOUNGE, KITCHEN, BATHROOM.
EXTERNAL
The property has a CAR PARK with space for 14 vehicles. TRADE GARDEN with seating for 96 and is partly laid to lawn and partly tiled patio. The garden includes a SMOKING SHELTER and is completely enclosed . DRY STORE which includes a walk-in fridge and a walk-in freezer. BOTTLE STORE.
The vendor has owned and operated The White Hart since December 1996 and during this time has created and established an award winning, positively reviewed profit-making business which offers a relaxed family friendly atmosphere with a traditional rustic menu using locally sourced and fresh ingredients. This has resulted in the kitchen achieving a 5 Star Hygiene Rating from the (FSA) Food Standards Agency. The owner is now looking to offer the property to the freehold market in order to retire.
It is in our opinion that an extension of the opening hours could lead to an increase in turnover. The business is currently supported by a dynamic website & social media accounts which will be passed over to the subsequent buyer on completion.
The most recent year end Net Turnover for 2024 stood in the region of £350,000 per annum. Further accounting detail will be made available to serious parties following a formal viewing.
