A FORMER village inn has been placed on the market.
The Yanwath Gate Inn, near Penrith, is accepting offers in the region of £400,000 with options for both private and commercial interest.
The property, which is being listed by David Britton Estates, was well-held within the community until its recent closure in April 2022.
At the time, the owner announced the 'heavy-hearted' decision to close on social media due to both personal reasons and being unable to bring in staff to carry on.
The building, which has been trading for over 300 years, is attached to a two-bedroom cottage, with independent access offering the prospect of owner accommodation or a source of rental income.
The period building has retained its original character and features, boasting a bar/lounge, dining room, and modern commercial kitchen.
"It is perfect for a live/work environment with the benefit of a two-bedroom cottage above with independent access, ideal for owners' accommodation or further income potential," the listing reads.
"The attractive period building has been trading for over 300 years and is charming, full of character and original features.
"The site also has a lapsed planning permission for two detached dwellings in the car park, so subject to the relevant planning permissions, this has so much further potential, depending on your individual aspirations."
