A pub in Easton that closed in 2013 could be converted into a house of multiple occupation. So far the application for the Coach House has received one objection from the Campaign for Real Ale, which is backed by the local ward councillor.
If the bid is approved, the former pub on Stapleton Road will be converted for residential use with five additional bedrooms on the ground floor. The first floor already has five bedrooms.
Ground floor plans also include a proposal for an office space, three store rooms, a utility room, a living room, kitchen and a bathroom. The architect PG Housing Design, which submitted the plans on behalf of the owner, stated that the change of use will result in no loss to the community due to the pub being closed now for many years.
