For the Freehold of the land and buildings, together with the business and equipment, plus stock at valuation

 

An exciting opportunity to acquire a small, private golf club, nestling in the Chilterns, with a delightful 9 hole course including practice putting green, clubhouse, golf shop, bar and some residential accommodation all to be sold as a going concern with scope to expand the business and increase turnover. Currently run by the owner with a greenkeeper and part time bar staff, the overheads are kept to a low level.  Accounts for the last 2 years are available on request.

This most attractive and pleasant course is situated on the edge of Little Chalfont and well placed for access to the M25.  It was created around 1980 and lies within the green belt and an area of outstanding natural beauty within the Chiltern District planning area of Buckinghamshire.  The main course, clubhouse and car parking, coloured green on the sketch plan, is about 35 acres and is in the freehold ownership of our client.  There is an area of land directly opposite the entrance coloured yellow in the plan amounting to about 1.5 acres currently rented on a peppercorn rent and we understand there is about 25 years unexpired -  this land has been used for teaching and practice. The area of land to the right of the entrance is being retained by our client.

There is a brick clubhouse measuring about 55ft x 40ft externally with, on the ground floor, a main entrance lobby, golf shop, run by the owner, with small bar to the rear, changing rooms,  showers and ladies and gentlemen’s toilets to the rear.  A staircase to the upper level leads to the main club room with bar and access to very extensive terrace overlooking the course.  There is a kitchen and office and access to the living accommodation which also extends onto the upper floor.

As the building is on a slope further accommodation has been created by the owner, beneath the terrace which is currently a full size snooker room, indoor swimming pool and room with large hot tub.  Currently this area is used by the owner and not incorporated into the club facilities, however it may be possible to make them available to members, subject, of course, to planning consent.
