Following the retirement of the previous operators after 24 years, a community buy-out and a six-month refurbishment programme, the Roxwell Chequers Community Benefit Society (RCCBS) is seeking the right tenant to re-establish The Chequers as the thriving pub at the heart of our community.

LOCATION
The Chequers is a traditional country pub located in the centre of Roxwell, four miles from Chelmsford City Centre. It is a Grade II listed building in a beautiful location a stone's throw from the village pond, church and school. It is the only traditional pub serving a wide catchment in an affluent part of the Essex countryside.

DESCRIPTION
The pub offers two main bar areas, each with their own fireplace, together with a range of other well-connected and characterful spaces and snugs extending off to the rear. It can accommodate approximately 50 seated covers alongside space dedicated to drinking and socialising. It will benefit from a newly installed commercial kitchen perfect for preparing high-quality, affordable, traditional pub food.

Outside trading areas include an attractive beer garden to the rear and a courtyard at the front overlooking the village conservation area. Full disabled access and toilet facilities are provided, alongside newly installed heating and electrical systems. The private accommodation consists of a refurbished two-bedroom flat with a spacious lounge at first floor level.

Practical completion of the refurbishment is estimated to be late October/early November 2024

ACCOMMODATION (Areas are approximate)
Ground Floor Pub - 1,465 SQ.FT
First Floor Flat - 703 SQ.FT
Total - 2,168 SQ.FT

TERMS
Available on a New Lease with terms to be agreed.

RCCBS is seeking a tenant with strong business acumen and a proven track record that can engage effectively with locals and harness the groundswell of support shown for the pub through the community buy-out. We expect the tenant to offer traditional country pub services, including real ales, good food and special events through the year that will drive interest and custom. The Chequers must be welcoming of all, including families and dogs, and resume its rightful place as the hub of our community

BUSINESS RATES
The Premises has a Rateable Value of £5000. It is our understanding that the 2 bedroom first floor flat has a separate council tax payable. Interested parties are advised to contact Chelmsford Council for further information.

LEGAL COSTS
Each party is to bear their own.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 21, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
