Grosvenor, the Duke of Westminster's property company has put up seven pubs in the heart of its prime Belgravia estate up for sale.

JLL has been appointed to market the portfolio, which includes The Grenadier, the pub where biochemicals billionaire and Manchester United football club bidder Sir Jim Ratcliffe famously dreamt up his plans for his 4x4 INEOS Grenadier car.

The portfolio comprises a number of iconic London pubs:

  • The Grenadier, 18 Wilton Row, SW1X 7NR
  • The Antelope, 22 Eaton Terrace, SW1W 8EZ
  • The Horse & Groom, 7 Groom Place, SW1X 7BA
  • The Nags Head, 53 Kinnerton Street, SW1X 8ED
  • The Fox & Hounds, 29 Passmore Street, SW1W 8HR
  • The Duke of Wellington, 63 Eaton Terrace, SW1W 8TR
  • The Star Tavern, 6 Belgrave Mews West, SW1X 8HT

Actor Colin Farrell has been spotted in The Star. The Horse & Groom had a starring role in the ITV series Belgravia, written by Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellows.
Landed estate Grosvenor is working with partners to invest £1.3 billion across Mayfair and Belgravia over the next 10 years, with 14 major projects and 1 million square feet of redevelopment already underway. This includes South Molton Triangle, a two-acre mixed use £500 million project being partly developed in a joint venture with Mitsui Fudosan UK and the redevelopment of Grosvenor Square, London’s second largest square.

Grosvenor is selling the long leaseholds and will retain the freehold.
