Walnut Tree

The Walnut Tree really is set in a beautiful location, located in the charming village and civil parish of Appleshaw, which is situated in northwest Hampshire, just north of Andover and right on the Wiltshire border. This is a unique and welcoming community pub with no direct competition nearby. It is the central gathering place for locals, offering a warm atmosphere and serving as a hub for the community. The pub is popular with a mix of families, retirees, and young professionals, all of whom value its convenient location. With excellent transport links and easy access to the M3 Motorway and public transport, connecting to the majority of cities in the South, it remains highly accessible for both locals and visitors. Pubs become rarely available in this area, so The Walnut Tree presents a one-of-a-kind opportunity to take over a thriving village pub with a loyal customer base with bags of growth potential.

As you approach the pub, its charming, thatched roof and inviting bench seating effortlessly blend with the village’s aesthetic. Entrance is through the front door, leading you to a centrally positioned bar and a quirky, open-plan trading area. This layout ensures ease of operation with minimal staffing requirements. The pub features a mix of fixed and loose seating, perfect for a range of occasions, from after-work drinks at the bar to relaxed Saturday afternoons with friends and family. The pub benefits from a compact but well-fitted catering kitchen, offering the potential to introduce food.

To the rear of the pub, the large beer garden is located. This area is perfect for creating the best pub garden in the area. It has an area that can be utilised as an outside kitchen, plenty of space for seating and benches, making the area ideal for hosting family fun days and festivals in warmer months. At the side of the pub is a currently unused hard-standing area that could easily be transformed into an inside/outside area conducive for year-round use, extending and enhancing trading style, growing covers, and would give a unique selling point.

The private accommodation consists of three bedrooms, a kitchen, a bathroom, and an office.
