Description

The Dog & Duck is a Grade II listed former public house with three bedrooms on the first floor and extensive former pub accommodation on the ground floor. The building retains features including exposed beams, timber flooring and inglenook fireplaces, and is described as requiring updating and modernisation. Its layout includes former bar and restaurant areas, two cloakrooms, a kitchen, utility room, walk-in refrigeration room, storage space and a cellar. Any change of use or conversion would be subject to the necessary planning consents and regulations. Outside, the property has a small front garden, an extensive parking area, an enclosed rear patio and a larger lawned garden with views over adjoining fields. Kingsfold is a hamlet near Warnham, with Horsham and Dorking also within reach. Rail services are available from Warnham and Horsham, and the A24 provides road connections. The combination of listed status, former commercial layout and residential accommodation offers scope to consider different uses, subject to confirming feasibility and the requirements that apply to the building.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

74out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £500,000, this detached Grade II listed former pub is priced at £206/sqf, well below the local average of £449/sqf. That makes it an unusually cheap entry point for a substantial property with extensive parking, a sizeable garden and a semi-rural setting. It scores well overall, though the low condition score reflects the scale of work involved.

Key opportunities

  • The former bar, dining and pub-service spaces offer scope to rethink the ground-floor layout for residential living, while retaining features such as the exposed beams and inglenook fireplaces.
  • The extensive parking, enclosed patio and substantial lawned garden give the property useful outdoor space and room to make a more inviting approach.
  • The dated upper rooms and bathroom provide scope to create a more cohesive residential finish that complements the building’s historic character.

Key risks

  • Former pub interiors, a worn commercial kitchen and dated finishes make this a heavy, multi-room programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; allow for a substantial rebuild and a longer project timetable.
  • As a Grade II listed building, changes to the layout or historic fabric may require consent, so check feasibility and requirements before committing to a conversion scheme.
