Property details
Alresford is growing fast, with new homes and fresh energy, so this is your chance to run a proper village pub with character, community, and potential. If you’re ready to make your mark, The Pointer is waiting. The Pointer Inn is a rare find. It’s the only pub in the village of Alresford, Essex: a peaceful spot just minutes from Wivenhoe and historic Colchester. The nearby university campus adds to the buzz, attracting locals, students, and visitors.
You’ll be working and living in a beautiful Grade II-listed building full of charm. Brick and tile, with an open log fire. It sits right in the heart of the village and is well connected by road and rail. The train station is just a short walk away. Locals come for the real ales, draught lagers, wines, and ciders, and stay for the fire and conversation.
Inside, the pub is warm and welcoming. There’s a sports bar to the right with pool and pub games. The main bar is central, with a cosy fireplace and relaxed seating. A quieter restaurant area offers space to enjoy traditional home-cooked food or a simple bar meal. The Pointer is known for its Sunday roasts and friendly atmosphere.
Families love the safe, enclosed play area in the large garden and plenty of parking.
The private accommodation includes three bedrooms, a lounge, and a kitchen.
