Occupying a highly prominent corner site in the heart of Inverbervie, this substantial mixed-use property offers an exceptional opportunity for both commercial and residential investors. The Inverbervie Post Office serves as an established local hub, providing essential postal, financial, and retail services to Inverbervie’s approximately 2,300 residents and the wider rural community extending from Montrose to Stonehaven.
Situation
Positioned at the junction of King Street and Kirk Burn—Inverbervie’s main commercial thoroughfare—the property enjoys maximum visibility in a bustling part of this historic Scottish coastal town. Inverbervie’s central location, strong transport links, and proximity to both Montrose and Stonehaven underpin its status as a key service centre for the wider Aberdeenshire region. The area is known for its vibrant community, scenic setting, and blend of independent shops, cafés, and local amenities.
Property
The property comprises a recently refurbished ground-floor retail unit (52.7 sq m) currently providing a secure Post Office counter alongside a bright and inviting gift shop. Large display windows ensure excellent natural light and street presence, while a modern suspended ceiling and thoughtful layout enhance operational efficiency. To the rear, the Post Office counter is discretely positioned for privacy and effective customer service.
Accessed via an internal hallway and staircase, the first floor offers a self-contained one-bedroom flat of approximately 44 sq m. Presently utilised for storage and as a staff break room, the flat includes a double bedroom with views over King Street, a spacious lounge with contemporary kitchen area, and a bathroom. While entirely functional, the residential accommodation would benefit from upgrading, presenting an excellent opportunity for refurbishment or alternative use.
Externally, the property features dual frontages enhancing footfall, and a small communal garden to the rear, providing useful amenity space for either commercial or residential occupiers.
The Business
- Serves as the principal Post Office for Inverbervie and surrounding rural areas, supported by nine outreach branches.
- Comprehensive range of services including Royal Mail and Parcelforce Worldwide, personal and business banking, bill payments, mobile phone top-ups, and driving licence applications, travel money, DPD and Amazon Uplift and Deliveries
- Experienced team of three part-time staff overseeing both the main branch and outreach operations.
- Strong financial profile, with reported annual remuneration of £120,000 with £45,000 in retail sales
- Trading hours designed to maximise accessibility: Monday–Thursday 8:30am–5:30pm, Friday 9:00am–5:30pm, Saturday 9:00am–12:30pm.
Investment Considerations
- Rare opportunity to acquire a thriving turnkey business and freehold property in a central location.
- Excellent dual-use potential: continue as a single business with ancillary accommodation or redevelop to realign commercial and residential provision.
- High visibility and accessibility, benefitting from consistent local and passing trade.
- Scope for further growth and diversification.
