Pub group Heartstone Inns has acquired The Two Brewers in Street, Somerset, in an off market deal to through Christie & Co.
The Two Brewers had been under the ownership of Richard and Maggie Pearce for 23 years, they are now looking forward to retiring from the sector completely. The pair were very proud of the pub, often describing The Two Brewers as having the ambience of a country inn despite occupying a community location.
Street is well known for being the home of shopping outlet Clarkes Village and Millfield School, known for its sporting prowess having produced many international and Olympic athletes.
James Birch of Heartstone Inns commented, “We are delighted to have added the charming and ideally located Two Brewers to the Heartstone Inns family of pubs.”
Nicholas Calfe, Director at Christie & Co's Bristol office who handled the sale, said, 'I was thrilled to be able to help Richard and Maggie move into retirement. The demand for well trading pubs in ideal settings is particularly high in the South West at the moment.
'The sale of The Two Brewers represents this demand. I look forward to seeing how the inn develops and progresses in the future.'
