Northamptonshire truckers’ café on the A5 has been sold
A Northamptonshire truckers’ cafe on the A5 has been sold to new owners. Jacks Hill Cafe and Truck Stop, at Watling Street, Towcester, was acquired by a private investor for an undisclosed sum in a “competitive bidding situation”. The prominent roadside site, which extends to 1.74-acres, has an extensive parking area which was previously used as a lorry park for up to 50 units and trailers.
The plot sits prominently on the A5, which runs from London to North Wales. After acquiring the property on behalf of a longstanding client, Kirkby Diamond has now been appointed to market the property on a leasehold basis. The site is considered suitable for a variety of uses.

We were very pleased to conclude the deal on their behalf in a competitive bidding situation.
The site has already attracted a lot of occupier interest due to its excellent location. “Towcester is growing rapidly, with a planned residential extension to the south of the town. Work is also underway to create a bypass which will filter traffic around the town centre and unlock further expansion of the town.
“The site offers a wonderful business opportunity for companies that may be considering establishing or expanding their commercial operations.” For more information contact Eamon Kennedy at [email protected] or call 07887 835815, or Paul Quy at [email protected] or 07917 268653.
