Description

A superb duplex style Apartment with gallery style first floor and external terrace. This is a well presented and spacious ground floor apartment in the ‘Urban Splash’ conversion of the grade II listed Collegiate building. The apartment enjoys the history of the original building including the restored central hall, stair and the former octagonal theatre. The character of individual apartments are enhanced by a combination of historical artifacts, large windows and modern facilities.

The Collegiate is an imposing Victorian building which occupies a Prominent location.

The magnificent sandstone elevations have been retained and restored but the majority of the internal structure has been replaced by a purpose built new building structure which forms a series of distinctive apartments. It is this combination of old and new which give this development it’s unique character and charm.

The Collegiate apartments are accessed directly from newly landscaped Shaw Street via a secure CCTV controlled entrance. Inside the building the original entrance hall and grand staircases have been restored to their original splendour. The Headmaster’s stone fireplace has been carefully refurbished and relocated to this area. From the entrance hall dramatic views into the walled octagonal garden will be revealed.

Secure car parking is provided at the rear of the building which is accessed by an electronically controlled entrance from College Street North

The walled octagonal garden will be a unique feature providing quiet, relaxing space for residents in what had originally been one the biggest concert spaces in Liverpool. Its unusual structure has been converted into a landscaped haven with seating space and landscaping.

The construction of a new structure within The Collegiate has allowed the architects to create a range of distinctive apartments throughout the building. Apartments fronting Shaw Street enjoy views across Josephine Butler Square and towards the recently restored St Francis Xavier Church. The penthouses on this elevation have stunning panoramic views across the City Centre towards the River Mersey and North Wales. At the rear the new façade includes stylish balconies and these apartments enjoy views inland towards the garden.

Internally, double height and duplex loft apartments have been
created and these enjoy large amounts of natural daylight which emphasises the feeling of grandeur and space.

The Collegiate scheme is a great opportunity for home buyers to enjoy a unique living experience in one of Liverpool’s most famous buildings and to benefit from the ongoing regeneration of this area.
