Description

POST OFFICE AND CONVENIENCE STORE in Sleaford for Sale.

A rare opportunity to acquire a quaint village Post Office with accommodation. Located on the high street of this popular Lincolnshire village which acts as a hub of the community with good access to the surrounding towns. The business premises are situated on the ground floor a characterful Grade II listed building with versatile three to four bedrooms accommodation above. The business has been successfully operated by our clients for the last six years and are reluctantly selling to return overseas. We believe that the premises have been used as a Post Office and convenience store for many years prior. The Post Office remuneration is currently in the region of £60,000 with retail takings around £1,000 per week. The store sells a variety of items from cards and gifts through to deli produce. The Post Office also offers outreach services to the surrounding villages, giving the business a monopoly in the surrounding area. We understand that there is a demand and potential to convert the front retail area into a small tearoom / coffee shop to further grow the takings. This would make an ideal lifestyle business opportunity with great access to the surrounding countryside.

The property comprises of the ground floor business premises which is approx. 72 sq m (775 sq ft) which is in two sections with the front area used as the deli counter and serving area with displays for gifts and other items. The rear part offers the Post Office counter with a storeroom off and additional retail space currently displaying cards and stationery. The residential accommodation of approx. 115 sq m (1,237 sq ft) is accessed from the rear of the property with stairs leading to the living areas. Situated on the first floor there is a dining kitchen with a utility room off, a recently refitted family shower room, living room, two double bedrooms (one of which was previously used as a dining room). The second floor has two double bedrooms which one or both would make use as office space.

Selling a Business?

Selling a business in the UK? We’ll be with you every step of the way

Selling any business can be a daunting task, but even more so when you’ve worked hard to build your own. That’s why finding the right business transfer agent is so important; you need to trust that you are working with people who have your best interests at heart.

That’s exactly what you’ll find at Ernest Wilson. Our clients’ interests are at the forefront of everything we do, and we’re pleased to have built a reputation based on our passion for what we do, implicit trustworthiness and thousands of recommendations over the last 60 years. Selling your business can be a time of mixed emotions, but we’ll be with you every step of the way.

Ernest Wilson is the leading business transfer agent with offices throughout the UK. We will never ask for payment in advance, not only do we have the necessary expertise to correctly value your business, we also have the resources to professionally market that business and obtain the best possible price in the market.

No advance payments

We don’t believe in asking for payment in advance, so we simply won’t do it. We often find that those who do are more interested in obtaining your signature than finding you a buyer, leaving their clients underwhelmed by the lack of advertising and efforts put in to selling their business.

Our advice is straight forward: if an agent asks for any payment from you in advance, don't use that agent.

Confidential, discreet support

Selling your business calls for discretion balanced with commerciality. We know that simply putting up a For Sale sign often does little more than set tongues wagging and unsettle your staff, and we’re pleased that we sell over 99% of businesses without the need for one.

We don’t give out details of your business to a potential buyer unless they are registered with us. Only then will they receive the full particulars of sale on your business. Our drive, passion and attention to detail in selling your business means we’ll only introduce it to people who are the very best fit.

Unrivalled, interested contacts

Our database of potential buyers is unrivalled by other transfer agents, and we’re proud of our relationships with potential buyers that allow us to understand exactly what they are looking for – meaning we can sell your business faster.

We offer local, regional and online advertising, and have extensive links to finance through a variety of financial institutions which help to complete your sale.
