Set on a prominent corner of Water Street with clear views toward the Royal Liver Building and the Mersey, this large one-bedroom apartment offers rare city-centre space — over 800 sq ft — and an allocated underground parking space. The Tower Building is a prestigious, Grade II listed conversion with high ceilings, large sash windows, concierge and lift access, giving an immediate sense of place and heritage. The open-plan living/dining/kitchen maximises light and the layout suits modern city living or a high-yield rental unit.
Practical strengths include an unusually long lease (circa 976 years), no onward chain and secure allocated parking — features hard to find in central Liverpool. The property is presented with hardwood-style floors and modern fittings; its size and views give scope to add value through cosmetic updating or to retain as a premium rental. Communal facilities and a staffed entrance add convenience and appeal for owner-occupiers or professional tenants.
Buyers should note material limits: the building’s listed status will restrict changes and could complicate alterations or consents. Heating is electric and provided by room heaters rather than a central system, and windows use secondary glazing; thermal performance and running costs may be higher than modern systems. Construction details indicate solid brick walls likely without cavity insulation. The neighbourhood classification indicates higher local crime statistics and a strong student presence, so consider lifestyle fit or lettings strategy accordingly.
Overall, this is a rare, sizable city-centre apartment with strong views and parking — ideal for first-time buyers wanting character and space or investors targeting central Liverpool rentals — provided you accept listed-building constraints and potential higher running costs.
