{"loaderData":{"0-3":{"propertyListing":{"building":{"id":"746606100564177","summary":"Beautifully restored Grade II Listed, 18th Century Coaching Inn situated within the Saxon walled town of Wareham","archived":true,"description":"THE BEAR

Constructed in 1852, The Bear is a Grade II Listed Coaching Inn that has been thoughtfully restored during its current ownership. Many of the property’s original features are present, including high ceilings, large Georgian windows and wooden panelling.

The property comprises 11 en suite bedrooms that have been individually designed, popular restaurant and welcoming bar. In addition, there is a function room, courtyard and staff bedroom. To the rear of the property is a cottage which provides an exciting development opportunity.

ACCOMMODATION

The beautiful en suite bedrooms are all individually designed and each one is as unique as the bears they have been named after. Each bedroom marries modern comfort and heritage charm, with large beds, rainfall showers and original features. There is one staff bedroom.

FOOD AND BEVERAGE

The front of the property provides the main bar area with private dining room, known as the Library positioned opposite.

At the rear of the property is the commercial kitchen which abuts the Green Room and restaurant/café. A total of 75 covers are provided here. The glass doors can be opened up onto the courtyard to provide al fresco dining.

At the basement level is an extensive cellar.

DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL

At the rear of the property is a cottage which is in need of refurbishment. It has potential to provide lounge, kitchen, bathroom and four bedrooms. This would be suitable for additional letting accommodation, for managers/owners accommodation, or alternatively could be separated from the title and disposed of separately.

THE BUSINESS

The current owners acquired the property in 2018 and spent recent years tastefully refurbishing the property both internally and externally. The business opened briefly prior to Covid but was impacted by lockdowns.

The business has been operational in a full capacity since May 2022, therefore providing an excellent opportunity to acquire turnkey business as trade becomes more established.

The Isle of Purbeck is a peninsula located in south Dorset, home to some of the country’s most well-loved towns and landmarks including Swanage (9 miles), Lulworth Cove (9 miles), Corfe Castle (4 miles) and Durdle Door (10 miles). Wareham is 8 miles southwest of Poole.

As the gateway to The Purbecks and one of the few remaining walled Saxon towns in England, Wareham makes a fantastic base to explore the area rich in history and scenery.","disclaimer":{"raw":"Disclaimer - Property reference A123EBFF-DF8C-4C4A-B175-1153C71CE884.
