Summary - HAMILTON BUILDING, CONWAY STREET CH41 4FD
1 bed 1 bath Office
Substantial freehold site for refurbishment or redevelopment in Birkenhead town centre.
32,691 sq ft NIA across four storeys
An imposing Victorian office block offered freehold, with 32,691 sq ft NIA across four storeys and a very large 1.37 acre site. The Hamilton Building sits prominently on Conway Street and retains strong period features — red brick, arched windows and decorative cornices — offering clear character for a conversion or sensitive redevelopment.
The site includes around 110 off-street car parking spaces and is not listed nor in a conservation area, which may simplify change-of-use or redevelopment proposals (subject to planning). It is identified within the emerging Wirral Local Plan and was last occupied by the local authority; the building has been vacant since 2020.
This is a value-driven opportunity for developers or investors prepared to take on a substantial refurbishment or demolition/rebuild project. Significant works and modernisation are likely required to meet current building standards and tenant expectations. Costs and planning risk should be factored in, particularly given local socio-economic challenges.
Location benefits include major-conurbation connectivity, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and nearby amenities and transport links. Note practical negatives: the local area is very deprived with high crime indicators, which will influence lettability, tenant mix and funding considerations. There is no flood risk recorded.
