Property details
The Crown is a well-supported community pub located in the heart of Melton Mowbray, adjacent to St Mary's Church. The town is conveniently served by East Midlands Railway, sitting on the line between Leicester and Peterborough. It is easily accessible, being just a 30-minute drive from Leicester and Nottingham, and around 40 minutes from Peterborough. The Crown’s prime location in this vibrant market town makes it an attractive destination for both locals and visitors, further enhancing its growth potential.
Upon entering the pub through the front door, you're welcomed into a small entry hall. To the left, you'll find a cosy lounge area featuring a charming log burner and a central bar servery that caters to both trade areas. The lounge is well-presented, offering a combination of fixed and loose seating, with a blend of carpeted and wood flooring for added warmth and style. On the right, there is a smaller lounge with similar features, including a log burner and varied seating options. Both lounges lead into a rear corridor, which provides access to the external courtyard. The courtyard boasts a tastefully decorated raised decked area and also leads to the toilets. At the back of the pub, there is a dedicated games room equipped with a pool table and dart boards. Additionally, a lockable side door grants access to the upstairs function room, complete with a separate bar. This function room enjoys a strong reputation within the local community and is frequently used for events.
The private accommodation is a reasonable size – four bedrooms, lounge, office and kitchen, two toilets and one bathroom.
