Summary - 571 GIBBET STREET HALIFAX HX2 0AL
1 bed 1 bath Convenience Store
Established income, strong footfall and clear growth potential.
Freehold sale with Post Office remuneration £60,000 pa
A long-established Post Office and convenience store in a densely populated Halifax location, offered freehold with immediate income. The business produces a weekly retail turnover of approximately £10,000 plus a guaranteed Post Office remuneration of £60,000 per year. The premises are newly refurbished with modern frontage, automatic sliding door, refrigerated units and a secure two-position Post Office fortress counter.
The two-storey unit is deceptively spacious for its footprint, with a ground-floor retail area, cellar storage and a first-floor storeroom and WC. Off-street parking and a busy main-road position deliver reliable footfall from the surrounding residential catchment. Stock is typically maintained at £15,000–£20,000 and broadband and mobile signal are strong, supporting modern payment and retail systems.
This is a practical opportunity for buyers seeking an operational convenience business with immediate cashflow and room to grow. New owners could increase turnover by extending opening hours, broadening product ranges or adding services. The freehold sale at £299,950 includes the trading fixtures and the Post Office contract.
Buyers should note material considerations: the area is classified as deprived with a high local crime rate, and the plot is very small, limiting physical expansion. The sale is prompted by retirement; the business benefits from an established local reputation but will require ongoing active management to realise growth potential.
