With the final of the Eurovision Song Contest taking place on Saturday 13 May, Liverpool’s in the spotlight yet again. However, Eurovision’s not the only thing that’s got us buzzing about this amazing city and its surrounding areas. Here are five homes we think deserve their time in the spotlight just as much as any of the super-catchy Eurovision acts.
3 Bedroom Semi-Detached – South Station Rd, Woolton, L25 3QE
The small historical village of Woolton is a real hit with families and it’s easy to see why. There are excellent schools for children of all ages, an old school cinema and recreational facilities like Camp Hill and Reynolds Park nearby.
As soon as you step through the door, you’ll love the space and quality of this three-bedroom house, available with no chain.
From the entrance hall, there’s access to a light lounge, leading to an open-plan kitchen diner featuring bags of storage and plenty of worktop space. French doors take you easily from the diner straight into the garden.
On the first floor, the master bedroom is light and airy. The second bedroom is equally well presented, and the third bedroom would be perfect as a children’s bedroom or as a study/home office.
Outside, there’s plenty of space in the back garden for children to play or for you to sit back and relax. At the front, a paved front garden offers easy off-road parking for you or your guests.
2 Bedroom Apartment – 21 Greenheys Rd, Toxteth, L8 0SX
L8 is an area that is really starting to take off. Close to Liverpool city centre and the Baltic market, it’s a great location for bars, live music, street food and more. Brilliantly located near Sefton Park, this two-bedroom apartment has handy bus and rail links to the city centre and beyond. So should you fancy leaving the car, you can still get around with ease.
Part of an impressive double-fronted building, this two-bedroom second floor apartment doesn’t disappoint. The hallway leads to an open-plan lounge and well-appointed kitchen.
French doors and a Juliet balcony in the lounge let you open up the room on warm summer nights or listen to the birdsong over breakfast in the morning.
There are two double bedrooms, one featuring plenty of built-in storage, while a beautifully appointed, boutique bathroom adds a touch of style to any morning or night-time routine.
And should you fancy grabbing a little extra sun, or simply enjoy a quick tipple and a chat outside with friends, there are well maintained communal gardens at the rear.
3 Bedroom Semi-Detached, Burnham Rd, Allerton, L18 6JU
Popular with both young professionals and families, Allerton is another sought-after area. It boasts some amazing green spaces with parks and river walks, along with the world-famous Penny Lane, made popular by the Beatles. What’s more, it’s all just a 15-minute commute from Liverpool city centre.
Beautifully presented throughout, this three-bedroom semi-detached has it all – style, space and charming touches like period fireplaces and original stained-glass windows.
Everything has been done the highest standards and nothing illustrates that more than the new kitchen-diner. This is a dream come true for those who love cooking and entertaining. Quality fitted units, integrated lighting, quartz worktops, high-end appliances and all the space you could want.
Upstairs there are three generously sized bedrooms. The third bedroom would be perfect as a children’s bedroom, a walk-in closet for extra storage, or even a small office.
And don’t forget the stunning boutique bathroom. With a walk-in shower, wet room, and free-standing bath, it’s the ultimate place to unwind after a heavy day. Just like having your own exclusive spa in the comfort of your own home.
1 Bedroom Apartment, The Colonnades, Royal Albert Dock, L3 4AG
This isn’t just a great location, it’s a truly iconic location. This is the Royal Albert Docks – a UNESCO World Heritage Site steeped in history. It boasts the largest collection of Grade-I listed buildings anywhere in the country and is now a hub for cultural events, bars, restaurants and more.
This one-bedroom duplex apartment puts you right at the heart of the action. Even before you get inside there are some great additional features, like 24/7 concierge and underground allocated parking. And those amazing touches just keep on coming.
From the entrance hall, the property opens up in every sense of the phrase. The open-plan lounge and kitchen-diner gives you a real sense of space and connectivity - perfect for entertaining. Or should you want to grab a little personal space, there’s a separate study or home office room off to the side.
The first floor features a large double bedroom with access to a balcony so you’re free to catch some sun. Plus, there’s a family bathroom complete with a four-piece suite including a bath and shower cubicle. This apartment really has to be seen to appreciate it all.
4 Bedroom Semi-Detached, Myers Road West, Crosby, L23 0RS
Crosby is another area that people just love. Brilliantly situated, this four-bedroom semi-detached house has super-handy transport links to Liverpool city centre, Manchester and beyond.
What looks like a traditional semi on the outside is far from what you will find on the inside. This home offers a wealth of space and is stunningly finished throughout – including the annexe.
As soon as you enter the hallway, you’ll know you’re in for something special. With a front-facing lounge and rear-facing sitting room, there’s plenty of room here for entertaining. Which is just as well, because with a kitchen like this you’ll really want to show it off. A large atrium ceiling bathes the kitchen in so much natural light you’ll never want to leave.
On the first floor, there are three double bedrooms, all offering plenty of storage space. The third bedroom at the back of the house would be perfect as a child’s bedroom or study/home office.
The master bedroom on the top floor is spacious and bright, with an ensuite and ample storage space.
However, the real cherry on this cake is the annexe. With its own lounge/kitchen area, double bedroom and en-suite shower room, it would make an amazing place for guests, an older teenager or elderly parents.
