Summary - 110 KING STREET COTTINGHAM HU16 5QE
1 bed 1 bath Commercial Property
Established cards and gifts shop with growth potential from extended hours and tweaks.
Prime trading position on King Street, close to main car park
A rare retirement sale of a long-established greetings, cards and gifts shop occupying a prime trading pitch on King Street, Cottingham. The business has traded here for over 20 years and benefits from strong local footfall, proximity to the main car park and a compact, well-presented sales area with a large display window. Weekly takings are currently around £1,800 while trading hours are restricted by the owner’s ill health — a new proprietor could increase hours to boost turnover quickly.
The premises extend to approximately 765 sqft across ground and first floor, including a fitted sales shop, second sales area, spacious stockroom, small rear kitchenette and WC. Stock (c. £15,000) is available by negotiation. Practical assets include fast broadband, excellent mobile signal, mains gas central heating and double glazing fitted after 2002. Flood risk is low.
Notable considerations: the leasehold tenure means incoming operators should check lease terms and running costs; the EPC is Band E and the interior would benefit from modernization to reach its full potential. Local crime levels are above average for the area and the building’s solid-brick construction is assumed uninsulated. Viewing is recommended for buyers seeking an immediate trading opportunity or an investment requiring modest upgrade and extended opening hours.
This listing suits a purchaser seeking a ready-made village retail footprint with room to grow—either as an owner-operator wanting turn-key stock and fittings, or an investor targeting steady rental income in a large village with town-style amenities.
