Description

Location

Burton Pidsea Service Station occupies a commanding roadside position on Main Road in the heart of Burton Pidsea village, East Yorkshire. Situated between the market town of Hedon and the coastal resort of Withernsea, the site benefits from consistent passing trade from local residents, agricultural workers, and commuters travelling towards Hull via the B1242.

The East Riding of Yorkshire's rural hinterland generates strong, year-round demand for fuel and everyday convenience goods. Hull city centre lies approximately 10 miles to the north-west, providing further commuter traffic.

Internal Details

The retail sales area (2200sqft incl. offfice) is well-proportioned and efficiently laid out, operating under the Nisa retail symbol group, providing access to a strong wholesale supply chain, promotional pricing, and own-label product ranges. The sales floor is comprehensively stocked across all major convenience categories including grocery, chilled, beers, wines and spirits, frozen, confectionery, tobacco, and news & stationery. The store features an extensive chilled wall with multiple refrigeration bays, offering an impressive range of dairy, soft drinks, beers, wines, and ready meals. A bank of upright freezer cabinets provides excellent depth across ice cream, frozen meals, and other frozen goods. The well-stocked alcohol range, spanning beers, wines, spirits, and cider.

Behind the counter, the till area incorporates a National Lottery terminal and scratchcard display, spirits and tobacco gantry, vape merchandising, and prepayment top-up services. A Drop & Collect parcel service further enhances footfall and customer convenience.

There is also space to add hot food to go, which is under consideration, currently with a coffee machine and sink area together with bake oven, in readiness to introduce this service.

Fixtures & Fittings

All fixtures and fittings are to be included within the sale, any items that are owned by a third party or personal to our clients will be exempt.

External Details

The site's generous plot c. 0.3 acre, and detached dwelling represent an exceptional opportunity, rarely found in the rural convenience sector, to acquire a multi-faceted business with significant upside potential.

The forecourt features two pump islands set directly in front of the convenience store. The main building provides a strong commercial presence and generous internal accommodation. Clear display frontage and a wide entrance enhance the site’s roadside appeal.

To the rear, a spacious service yard provides ample operational and storage capacity, with good access for deliveries and scope for future reconfiguration or redevelopment. Included within the site is a well proportioned, three bed detached house positioned at the front of the property. Benefitting from its own private drive it offers valuable onsite accommodation or potential for independent use.

Owner's Accommodation

The property includes a detached two-storey dwelling situated adjacent to the trading premises, with shared pedestrian access to the side and its own separate access, single car parking space and private garden. The accommodation is presented to a comfortable standard, representing a significant benefit for any incoming owner-operator. The property features a main reception room, kitchen, 3 bedrooms, and a family bathroom.

The mature rear garden incorporates raised vegetable beds, a greenhouse, and garden room, providing a genuine lifestyle offer rarely associated with petrol station businesses. If not required for owner occupation, the accommodation could generate meaningful rental income to support business cash flow

The Opportunity

Burton Pidsea Service Station represents a rare and compelling acquisition within one of East Yorkshire’s most underserved rural trading corridors. This long established, owner operated business combines a well stocked convenience store, an active fuel forecourt, and an excellent warehouse in the form of mezzanine storage above the shop, an asset mix seldom available in the village petrol station market. The business is ideally positioned for an incoming operator to build on strong existing foundations, with clear scope to extend trading hours, introduce food to go and make more of a feature of hot drinks by introducing a well known brand.

The pleasant, detached owner’s accommodation further enhances the opportunity, making the site particularly attractive for first time operators or those relocating. In addition to its trading strengths, the site also offers genuine commercial or mixed use redevelopment potential (subject to planning). Alternatively removing the house to add further pump islands and canopy would enhance the forecourt offering. Any consented development would benefit from an established trading destination and proven local demand. Early pre application enquiries with East Riding of Yorkshire Council are recommended for purchasers exploring redevelopment options.
