Watergate, Methley, LS26

This former public house presents a substantial renovation opportunity, encompassing a gross internal area of approximately 304.1 m2 (3,272 ft2) along with an additional barn/storage space measuring about 104.5 m2 (1,124 ft2). Situated on a total parcel of land of around 0.09 hectares (0.23 acres), this two-storey property features a basement level and is structured with various dining areas, a main bar and tap room on the ground floor, while the first floor offers living accommodation. The interior requires significant refurbishment, particularly following fire damage to some ground floor sections. With vehicular access to the car park from Watergate (B6135) and existing rights for neighboring parking, the site holds considerable potential for redevelopment into multiple uses, pending necessary planning approvals. Located in Methley—an area characterized by its rural ambience near Leeds—the property enjoys proximity to major transport routes via the M62, positioning it well for commuters. Given its location within the Greenbelt, there may be restrictions on redevelopment that need careful consideration.
