Sydney's Kazal family has sold Circular Quay retail space - leased to Management International Group and trading as Buckley's Craft Beer Bar - for $21.5 million.

It reflected a tight net yield of 4 per cent.

The new owners of Shop 18A Opera Quays, 7 Macquarie Street plan to hold the high-performing asset for the long term.

The 408 square metre strata-titled property has 256 square metres of lower ground promenade space as well as 137 square metres in mezzanine space which features a fully operational commercial kitchen, walk-in cold storage and private staff meeting rooms.

The restaurant with a hotelier's licence can hold 500 patrons. A lease with options is in place until 2024.

There are 18 other similar lots on the high-profile promenade, which leads to the Sydney Opera House.

"Buckley's Bar is strategically located with a large outdoor seating component with direct water views, with these features making this retail strip one of the most tightly held precincts in the Sydney CBD," selling agent Cushman & Wakefield's Anthony Bray told Fairfax Media.

It follows another Circular Quay asset sold earlier this year when the 131 square metre Shop 12 at 1 Macquarie Street sold for $10.2 million in an off-market sale, at a net yield of 3.15 per cent.

Mr Bray brokered the sale with colleague Ryan Cross.
