Liquidators instruct Shepherd to offer The River Inn in Houston for sale

Joint Liquidators George Lafferty and Barry Stewart of Leonard Curtis have instructed Shepherd Chartered Surveyors to offer the long-established River Inn at Crosslee, Houston in Renfrewshire for sale.

The country restaurant and bar, which recently ceased trading, is located in the popular commuter village lying five miles west of Paisley.

The substantial restaurant and bar are contained within a large detached two-storey building of part traditional and part modern construction.

The original section of the property was built as a coaching house in the nineteenth century and has been extended in more modern times, principally around the 1960s/1970s, with further extensions in the late 1990s, to form the present accommodation.

The River Inn’s extensive accommodation fitted out to a high standard comprises reception and bistro, Chrysalis restaurant, family bar, toilets, kitchen, and stores on the ground floor and, on the upper floor, a sports bar/function room, restaurant, toilets, kitchen, and stores.

The restaurant and bar provide spacious car parking to the side and rear together with a large, landscaped terrace/beer garden.

Gary Louttit, Head of Hospitality & Leisure at Shepherd, said: “As well as offering a long-established popular country restaurant and bar with limited local competition, the property and site also offer an attractive opportunity for alternative development, including residential.”

Offers in excess of £850,000 are invited. Interested parties should contact the sole selling agent on 0141 331 2807.
