Description

The Outfitters is a delightful end-of-terrace café and public house, brimming with character and charm, prominently positioned along the high street in the village of Brough.

Brough itself enjoys a strong sense of community and provides an excellent range of everyday amenities, including a village shop, primary school, outreach post office, hotel and public house. The area is particularly well regarded for its schooling, with secondary education available at the highly respected Kirkby Stephen Grammar School and Appleby Grammar School. Just five miles away, the bustling market town of Kirkby Stephen offers a wider selection of facilities, including a supermarket, banks, independent shops, restaurants, public houses, hotels and a variety of sporting opportunities.

The Outfitters is arranged over three floors and presents a versatile and appealing trading environment, complemented by beautiful accommodation above. The ground floor opens into a welcoming entrance hall, leading through to two distinct dining areas. To the right, a bright and inviting space incorporates the bar and main seating area, ideal for relaxed dining, while to the left a more intimate dining room provides a cosy setting and enjoys a connection through to the kitchen. A disabled WC with baby changing facilities is also conveniently located on this floor

The lower ground floor reveals a charming lounge area, enhanced by bi-fold doors that open out to a picturesque riverside aspect and outdoor seating area, creating an attractive space for customers to relax and enjoy the surroundings. This level also includes a useful pantry store and an additional versatile room, currently utilised as supplementary accommodation, though equally suited to further customer seating if desired.

The first floor continues the property's appeal, offering comfortable and characterful owner's accommodation. A welcoming living kitchen with open fire provides a cosy heart to the home, complemented by delightful views across the surrounding countryside. There are two double bedrooms, along with a utility room and a well-appointed house bathroom featuring a whirlpool bath and separate double shower.

Externally, the frontage offers further potential for seating or could be arranged as a low-maintenance patio area, enhancing the overall customer experience.

Planning permission has been granted for conversion of the premises into a residential dwelling, providing flexibility for a range of future uses, whether as a continuation of a successful business or as a charming private home.

The Outfitters represents an exceptional turnkey business opportunity, while also offering significant scope for residential conversion into a superb family home or holiday retreat. Whichever route is chosen, the property stands as a highly attractive and versatile investment in a sought-after rural setting.
