A pub in the West End of the Scottish capital has been sold.

The sale of the former cocktail bar the Boozy Beaver, said to have been popular with Edinburgh students, was handled by Cornerstone Business Agents.

The agent said the Mitchell Place bar can “comfortably cater for 80”, adding: “There are many nooks and crannies within the property that give it a very unusual and interesting layout.

“The bar is to the centre of the premises with access to the galley kitchen behind."

It said its clients have "spent liberally to create an inviting and well-presented modern bar/restaurant".

“Our clients have also invested heavily into ‘unseen’ alterations in the property including wiring, electrics, property compliance, flooring and overall condition of the property.”

Barry McNeil, of Cornerstone Business Agents, said: “Delighted to be involved in another sale in the West End of Edinburgh - this time with the assignation of the leasehold interest in the former Boozy Beaver."

The value of the transaction was not disclosed, however the property was offered at a £90,000 leasehold premium and £36,000 per annum rent.
