Pub Tenancy - Oxford

Could you run this pub?
The Blue Boar sits within the centre of the market town of Abingdon, in Oxford. It's a sociable community pub which offers great value drinks and sits amongst several daytime businesses. The pub is known for opening late at the weekends (Friday and Saturday).
The pub is within a popular drinking circuit, and there is opportunity to develop it with a daytime trade with a simple light pub food offer/ maybe with breakfasts.

Business facilities & Refurbishment
This pub offers an open L shaped trading space and the bar sits with the recessed area. The higher-level area is predominantly used for enjoying social drinks and doubles as a dance floor on a weekend. There's room for up to 25 covers and there is a conservatory which currently hosts the pool and darts area.
The external beer garden includes an arch way entrance which doubles as a smoking solution, and there is potential to enhance this space and bring additional trade in the warmer weather.
We plan to invest in the pub both externally & internally to bring out its best and this will include extending the bar to make it easier to manage and plan to improve the back bar to enhance it to house the right product.

Accommodation
The private accommodation includes three bedrooms, a kitchen and lounge
