Characterful and historic property in Chesterfield housing restaurant and living accommodation is up for sale or let

A prominent landmark restaurant property in Chesterfield with exceptional character and heritage appeal has gone on the market.

The Old Post Restaurant on Holywell Street is listed at £250,000 with the option to let for £18,000 per annum. A premises licence is available for transfer, subject to the approval of the licensing authority. The building is available for immediate occupation.

Parts of this historic building, which is Grade II listed, are believed to date back to the 16th century. Before it became a restaurant, it operated as a post office and through the centuries has been a servants’ registry office and a private residence.

The marketing agent is W.T. Parker who describes this as “a unique opportunity to acquire a well-established period restaurant property combining historic charm with commercial potential - or other commercial use.”

The character-filled interior has exposed timber beams throughout, including a King Post roof truss within the first-floor bedroom and bathroom.

There is a rare double-barrelled cellar, a distinctive and unusual feature which offers excellent storage potential.

On the ground floor are two dining rooms, a commercial kitchen space, two wc’s and a rear lobby area which leads to a delightful walled courtyard, with outbuildings.

Residential accommodation with two/three bedrooms, a lounge and bathroom is on the first floor.

The agents added there is ample parking nearby, offering convenient access for customers and visitors.
