A CLOSED-down community pub in Glazebury is under offer after closing its doors last year.
The Grey Horse, off Warrington Road, was listed on the property market for offers in excess of £275,000 following its closure in October last year.
Now, however, the pub is under offer, which means the community could perhaps see the doors of the beloved watering hole opening sooner than expected.
According to the description on Rightmove: "On entering The Grey Horse you are welcomed by a warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere with a modern shabby chic décor, a mixture of lighting, quarry tiled flooring, beams and exposed brick walls.
"The pub is made up of four different sections, to the left as you walk in there is a quaint cosy lounge area with carpeted flooring and a multi-fuel burner, perfect for those chilly nights.
"An area from the lounge opens to a continuation of this room with a feature exposed redbrick chimney breast and a number of tables and chairs.
"To the right you will find a games room with wooden flooring housing a pool table, dart throw and further seating areas, to the rear of this room you can access the male and ladies' toilets along with a back door to the rear of the pub.
"The bar is central to the pub as you walk in and services all areas with a mixture of bar stools and fixed seating and tables.
"To the rear of the pub, you will find a car park for five/six vehicles along with a wooden pagoda offering a smoking solution."
The description adds: "Commercial catering kitchen with a range of stainless steel catering equipment.
"The living accommodation is located over the first floor and briefly comprises five bedrooms, lounge, kitchen, bathroom and office."
When the last tenant vacated the pub in October 2023, a post on the social media page for the site read: "Well, as the shutters go up on the pub I would just like to thank everyone who supported us, we have made friends for life."
The Grey Horse is currently under offer and is being let by Everard Cole Ltd.
