Description

An interesting opportunity has arisen to purchase a substantial former working mens and social club offering approximately 220sqm of internal space in a central town
location.

Formerly The Equalized Club, a historic private members club established over 100 years ago. This building has been home to The Equalized Club since 1947, with the club only
closing in May 2026.

The property is a single storey building. The construction is non-standard being of sectional concrete slab under a corrugated pitched gable roof.

Set up as a hospitality venue, the accommodation comprises a central entrance lobby with access to both ladies and gents toilet facilities and double doors open to a large bar and lounge area of approximately 144sqm with physical bar. A door leads to a rear function room of around 78sqm with a continuation of the bar. Behind the bar area is a cold room and cellar with the usual beer pumps/taps, etc. There is a stock room, managers office and additional boiler room.

Occupying virtually all of its plot of around 377sqm. There is an open forecourt and a small area of land to the rear.

Situated on a side road just off the main high street of Stapleford town centre (Derby Road). Stapleford has a population of just over 15,000 and sits between the cities of
Nottingham and Derby. The high street has a range of shops, facilities and hospitality, and a regular bus service linking Nottingham and Derby.

The Equalized Club has been part of the Stapleford town centre for generations and the building clearly lends itself for a similar function but equally due to the size and space, could be put to other uses such as a dance studio, gym, meeting space, storage facility or the potential to re-develop.

Offered for sale with immediate vacant possession, viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation on offer.
