Former New Vic PH, 41 -43 The Esplanade, Weymouth, DT4 8DH

Description
The Former New Vic Inn was historically part of the Fairhaven Hotel an imposing Grade II Listed building which has been formed of five original properties and are understood to have been constructed in the 19th Century.

The unit is to undergo works to create a self-contained unit, separated from the Fairhaven hotel itself and to provide open trade space at ground and first floor with storage at basement.

The unit does have the benefit of being partially fitted.

There is an area in front of the building which was used for “alfresco” dining in the summer months although this is not owned by the vendor and the use is authorised by a pavement licence from Weymouth and Portland Borough Council.
