  Business Summary   
  Preferred Commercial is delighted to offer for sale this busy village Post Office, which was established in 1950 and which has been in our clients' careful hands since 2000. The Post Office is only now offered to the market due to our clients' wish to retire. The business trades 5½ days a week and earns a Post Office salary of £62,000 per annum. Aboyne Post Office offers a selection of greeting cards, stationery and Post Office services. We feel there is huge scope to extend the range of products offered and increase turnover. The business has gained an enviable reputation over 60 years of trading and enjoys much repeat trade. There is a 1-bedroom flat and a 2-bedroom flat, both of which are self-contained, and could be used as owners' accommodation or let out to increase turnover. The premises are well-equipped to suit the trade and have been finished to a high standard throughout. This is an ideal lifestyle change opportunity for a new owner to acquire an already busy Post Office with huge scope for future development. Early negotiations with Preferred Commercial must come highly recommended.
