A "superb" village pub in Scotland has gone on the market complete with an owner's flat and a private garden.
The West End Bar in the Fife village of Pittenweem is available to purchase for £460,000 on a freehold basis. The village is located approximately 10 miles south of St Andrews, with highlights including its "quaint" harbour and winding streets.
According to the listing, the public bar and restaurant is situated in a "prominent trading location" in the "sought after" area of East Neuk. It is a two-minute walk from the village harbour and is in "an excellent position to capture passing trade and serve the local community".
"Fully refurbished bar and restaurant oozing real charm," states the listing.
"The West End Bar is everything you would expect a great pub to be; great beers and well chosen wines with premium spirits and a restaurant utilising the very best of Scotland's larder.
"Our clients have owned the business since 2017 and have worked very hard to modernise the interior as well as to retain the original characteristics, at the same time the business has been developed to create a vibrant pub and with a great bistro style food offering.
"Our clients have sympathetically upgraded the business to offer a walk-in opportunity for new proprietors that will allow them to concentrate on building the business up further."
The West End Bar, which has been fully refurbished, features a fireplace in the middle of the "cosy" pub. The main customer entrance to the stone-built property leads directly into an entrance vestibule that provides access to the West End Bar.
The bar has a capacity of 26 and provides a "relaxed and friendly atmosphere". According to the listing, the bar "forms the real heart of the business".
