Preferred Commercial is pleased to offer for sale this popular Post Office and newsagents, which was established in the 1940s and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 1998. The business is only now being placed on the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business offers general Post Office services and draws a Post Office salary of £28,000 per annum, along with sales of tobacco, alcohol, newspapers and a range of convenience items, with a turnover of approximately £250,000 per annum. There is scope for a new owner to increase turnover by applying to offer PayPoint and lottery and perhaps, embarking on a modest advertising campaign. The shop and Post Office occupies single storey lock-up premises. The freehold of the property is available for £239,950 +SAV and would include the self-contained 3-bedroom house to the rear of the shop, which is currently let out at £525 per month, but could be used as owners' accommodation. We feel this represents an ideal opportunity to acquire a busy Post Office and general store in such a desirable location. Early discussions with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
The Common Post Office occupies a prominent location on a busy main road that leads into the town of South Kirkby in West Yorkshire. The Post Office is surrounded by a large residential estate from which it draws much trade, and benefits from a high footfall and a bus stop directly outside. South Kirkby is a popular place in which to live and work and boasts easy access with the railway station approximately 1 mile from the Post Office, while there are good road links with the A1(M) approximately 5 miles away. Pontefract lies approximately 7 miles to the north, Wakefield, 9 miles north west and Barnsley approximately 9 miles south west.
