Albert Hotel, Chapel Row, Douglas, IM1 2BJ
Description
A rare opportunity to acquire one of the Island's longest running free houses. The Albert Hotel is situated in central Douglas and offers a public house on the ground floor, cellar, cages and a tap room in the basement. Above the pub is a currently used as the landlord's accommodation, arranged as a 3/4 bedroom apartment (accessed internally via the business). The free house was first licensed in 1862 and has had various names over the years. There are two bar areas located on the ground floor, both of which are fitted with bench seating and the central servery area is open to both bars. The Albert is a favourite local pub with many regulars and a lively karaoke on Friday evenings. The historic basement cellars are thought to be some of the oldest surviving manmade structures in Douglas, a true hidden gem! Further information is available upon request, including financials. Viewings are strictly by appointment only through sole agents, Cowley Groves. To arrange a viewing, please contact Orry-James Creane on 01624 625888 (option 1) or email.
