Summary - HIGHER BUXTON POST OFFICE, 12A, HIGH STREET SK17 6EU
3 bed 2 bath Not Specified
Profitable post office, let flat and rear conversion potential in Buxton.
Freehold High Street property including commercial and three-bed flat
A rare freehold High Street opportunity combining a trading post office, a three-bedroom first-floor flat and a rear former cottage with conversion potential. The ground-floor commercial unit benefits from strong footfall by Buxton Market Place and established trading systems, including an ATM, CCTV and experienced staff. The business is profitable and can be purchased separately or with a long-term lease in place.
The first-floor flat is larger-than-average, currently let at £585 PCM, providing immediate rental income. The rear former 2 Hyde Cottages area offers scope — subject to planning and works — to reinstate a one‑bed dwelling ideal for short-lets or an additional long-term let, increasing total income. Off-street parking for two cars and two courtyard areas add practical value in a central location.
There are some clear practical matters to note: parts of the building date from 1900–1929 with uninsulated stone walls assumed, EPC ratings are mixed (Residential D, Commercial C), and some reinstatement or refurbishment will be required to convert the rear cottage back into a standalone dwelling. The area records higher crime levels, and any purchaser should review trading accounts and operational details (available to serious buyers).
This is an ideal purchase for an investor or owner-operator seeking steady income with immediate scope to enhance returns through rental optimisation, splitting titles, or reinstating the rear dwelling. Sale is offered freehold and chain free; the vendor is retiring and open to flexible sale arrangements including selling the business separately.
