This newly renovated one-bedroom ground-floor apartment offers a compact, move-in-ready home in Wavertree, suitable for first-time buyers or buy-to-let investors. The open-plan living area and modern kitchen create an airy feel despite the modest overall size, and off-street parking is a practical bonus in a central location with excellent public transport links.
The property benefits from recent energy-efficient upgrades, double glazing and a modern heating system (mains gas boiler and radiators). The long lease (approx. 950 years) and very low council tax reduce ongoing costs and add tenure security. Nearby amenities include shops, cafes, parks and good primary schools rated Good by Ofsted.
Important drawbacks are factual and should be considered: the apartment is small at about 368 sq ft, and the immediate area is classified as very deprived with relatively high local crime rates. The building appears to have cavity walls with no installed insulation (assumed), and double-glazing install date is unknown, which could affect future heating costs. Buyers should also note the ground-floor position and semi-detached setting when assessing security and noise.
Overall, this flat suits someone seeking an affordable, low-maintenance first home or a compact investment with solid rental demand, provided buyers are comfortable with the compact footprint and urban location.
