Summary - Oliver Street, Birkenhead CH41 6BB
1 bed 1 bath Flat
Affordable town-centre flat with strong commuter links and low council tax.
One double bedroom; open-plan lounge/kitchen layout
This compact one-bedroom upper-floor flat in central Birkenhead offers a low-maintenance city-centre base with excellent transport links and fast broadband — attractive for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan lounge/kitchen and neutral finishes mean the apartment is move-in ready, with practical fitted kitchen appliances and a contemporary bathroom.
Be realistic about the context: the property sits above ground-floor retail on a busy commercial street in a very deprived area with very high local crime rates. The flat is small (approximately 313 sq ft) and heated by electric room heaters; there is no gas central heating. Service charge and ground rent apply (service charge £768 pa; ground rent £150 pa) and the tenure is leasehold with a long lease remaining (246 years).
For investors the central location, good mobile signal and strong local rental demand are positives; for first-time buyers this is an affordable entry into town-centre living at a low council-tax band. Prospective purchasers should commission their own checks on services and a survey to confirm condition and running costs before committing.
