Stanley Dock Properties has sold a spectacular £570,000 two bedroom 1,658 sq ft (154 sq m) penthouse at the Grade II listed Victorian Tobacco Warehouse, overlooking the waters of Stanley Dock in Liverpool, which is a price record for an apartment sale in Liverpool during 2022 say joint sole selling agents Beauchamp Estates and Logic Estate Agents.

Paul Finch, New Homes Director at Beauchamp Estates says: “This landmark penthouse sale underlines the ongoing renaissance of the Liverpool luxury property market which has been extremely buoyant over the last 12 months. Luxury apartment sales in Liverpool have been strong, there have been a flurry of new luxury designer shops such as the flagship Flannels which opened in June and new restaurants such as the Michelin starred Manifest restaurant which opened in March.”

Arguably the most spectacular new apartment in Liverpool, the penthouse has a bespoke specification with custom designed fixtures, fittings and finishes and is located on the top 13th floor of Tobacco Warehouse. The penthouse opens onto a spacious private roof terrace which spans the entire length of the penthouse living space and principal bedroom suite.

The penthouse has a large open plan double reception room with full height glazing opening onto the roof terrace. The reception room provides space for a large living area, 6-8 seat dining area, with an open plan fully fitted custom design kitchen located off the main living space with a marble topped central island, sleek cupboards and cabinets and luxury integrated appliances.

Spanning the entire depth of the penthouse the principal bedroom suite opens onto the roof terrace and has a spacious bedroom with dressing and relaxation areas, a walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious ensuite bathroom. There is also spacious entrance hall and a luxurious second bedroom which has access to a main bathroom.

Beauchamp Estates and Logic Estate Agents highlight that apartment sales at Tobacco Warehouse have been strong and steady over the last 12 months and the initial phases of the dockside development are now over 75% sold.

Built in 1898-1901, designed by architect A. G. Lyster, Tobacco Warehouse provides 550 large and airy one, two and three bedroom Manhattan loft style apartments, including penthouses, ranging in size from 958 sqft up to 2,750 sqft; complete with 100,000 sqft of dock level commercial space and lifestyle amenities.

Tobacco Warehouse is the residential part of the £250 million (completed value) regeneration of Stanley Dock into a leading leisure destination. Designed by Liverpool architect Jesse Hartley of Royal Albert Dock fame, the transformed Stanley Dock includes the 153 bed Titanic Hotel, created from the adjacent North Warehouse (built in 1854-1855), and now one of Liverpool’s most luxurious hotels with a restaurant/grill, cocktail bar and health club. There are plans for the dock’s Pump House to be converted into a restaurant and cocktail bar and the South Warehouse to be refurbished into apartments and an apart-hotel, complete with a restaurant and health club.

Tobacco Warehouse is located just 1.5 kilometres from Liverpool city centre, it is just a short riverside walk from Tate Liverpool at Albert Dock, and is within sight of the new Everton Stadium being built at Bramley-Moore Dock, due for completion in 2023/24.

Apartments at Tobacco Warehouse are available priced from £265,000 to £610,000 (leasehold – 250 years).
