Characterful one-bedroom in Ropewalks — affordable shared ownership close to Liverpool One.
80% shared ownership — buy an £112,000 80% share
This one-bedroom apartment is an 80% shared ownership offering in a converted warehouse in Ropewalks, close to Liverpool One and the waterfront. The building retains industrial character with exposed brick and large windows that deliver generous natural light to the open-plan living/kitchen space. The layout is compact and efficient — suited to a first-time buyer seeking an affordable city-centre base with character.
Monthly outgoings are straightforward: a service charge (£121.20 pcm) plus a sinking fund contribution (£28.30 pcm). Heating is electric and there is no private outdoor space. An incoming new lease will be granted on completion (surrender and regrant). The EPC is not provided and buyers should note this when budgeting for future energy costs.
The location is highly central with excellent transport, fast broadband and a wide range of shops, cafes and leisure options within walking distance. That convenience comes with some urban negatives: the local area records very high crime levels and the apartment will suit someone comfortable with inner-city living rather than a family seeking quiet suburban streets.
Overall this property represents an affordable route into a central Liverpool address with period character and good natural light. It is most appropriate for a first-time buyer wanting a compact, city-based home or an investor who understands shared-ownership terms and ongoing service charges. Buyers should arrange a viewing and commission a full survey and EPC assessment before committing.
