A two-bedroom first-floor apartment in a Grade II listed Victorian block, positioned on North John Street close to Liverpool ONE, the waterfront and main transport links. The flat benefits from long lease security (977 years), gas central heating, double glazing, lift access and an intercom. It is currently let on an Assured Shorthold Tenancy producing £7,140 per annum, making it immediately income-generating for a buyer.
The building has an EPC C rating and the apartment has fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — important for student or city-centre lets. Service charge (£1,065 pa) and ground rent (£350 pa) are stated; council tax band C is described as affordable. The property will be sold at public auction with a guide price of £55,000+, so buyers should factor in auction costs and the reserve process.
Important cautions are included: the flat is Grade II listed which can cause restrictions and additional costs, details were provided by receivers and no internal inspection by the selling agent has been carried out. The local area is described as a cosmopolitan, multicultural student neighbourhood with high crime levels — a practical consideration for management and insurance costs.
This lot suits investors seeking a low-entry, city-centre rental asset with immediate income and long lease security. Buyers wanting a primary home should note the listed status, nearby student-dominated streets and that some refurbishment or personal inspection may be needed before committing bids.
