This compact fourth-floor studio in St. James Street offers a straightforward, low-cost entry to Liverpool city-centre living or a high-yield rental investment. At 25 sqm, the open-plan living/bedroom/kitchen and separate en-suite shower room are laid out for efficient urban use. The building is a modern industrial conversion with communal basement facilities and easy walking distance to the Baltic Triangle and central amenities.
Currently let to a mixture of student and residential tenants, the apartment produces an annual income of £8,580 against a guide price of £35,000 — a strong headline yield for buy-to-let investors. The long lease (900 years) and chain-free sale simplify transfer, while excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds suit modern renters.
Buyers should note the surrounding area scores high on deprivation and has an inner-city cosmopolitan character; the neighbourhood comprises a mix of uses and tenants. Ground rent is £448 (average) and the building has limited lending availability due to a steel-frame construction note — this may restrict mortgage options for some buyers and will require specialist lender advice.
This property suits investors seeking immediate rental income or first-time buyers/down-sizers prioritising location and affordability over space. It offers potential for straightforward management and steady returns, but buyers should inspect communal condition and confirm finance availability before proceeding.
