Draft Details:
The Property
The property comprises a former Oast House and Maltings. These are C18th buildings and are the only remains of the John Day Brewery which occupied much of the immediate surrounding area. Most of the brewery buildings were demolished in the 1960's but the Oast House and Maltings were preserved. The Oast House which forms the centrepiece of the property was a kiln for drying barley which is now a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Adjoining properties include the Priory Centre, and it is located within 100 metres of the town's busy High Street. The property was historically used as a snooker and pool centre with a bar. In recent years the property has undergone substantial refurbishment and turned into a private members club and sports bar which closed in 2019. Fixtures and Fittings and all of the existing bar, and other fixtures and fittings could be included within the sale.

Location
St Neots is a rapidly expanding town located on the banks of the River Great Ouse with a population of well over 30,000 residents. Adjoining and nearby settlements such as Little
Paxton, increase the population figure to c. 40,000. The retail catchment is estimated to be in excess of 80,000. St Neots has the fastest rate of population growth within the County.
Benefiting from its rail links to London Kings Cross (typical journey time of 45-55 minutes), the town has seen a considerable expansion of its commerce and industry in
recent years. It also enjoys excellent road communications with London and the east coast ports, being located at the intersection of the A1 trunk road and the A428/A421 Cambridge - Bedford M1 - Milton Keynes route. The opening of the A14 and A428 dual carriageways have significantly improved accessibility to the Midlands and the North West. The town has a good range of shopping and leisure facilities with many national retailers represented, including, Boots, Waitrose, Marks & Spencer Simply Food, and Argos. St Neots also benefits from a six screen cinema (Cineworld) and four restaurants including Pizza Express.
