Park Central completed its work this week and that is good news for all.

We are proud to be able to deliver our second phase of our development on Central Docks and Park Central looks fantastic next to Quay Central.

Park Central offers a communal room with workspace for residents and a beautiful landscaped platform on the 1st floor for residents to enjoy looking across the city and out on to the Mersey river.

Each apartment has its own defined entrance lobby and floor to ceiling windows which provide a bright and natural environment as well as fantastic long views of Liverpool’s famous water space. The apartment finishes are lovely and slightly different from phase one Quay Central. A deep and rich tonal palette provides a contemporary feeling complemented by carefully chosen ironmongery. The colour theme within apartments is modern in feel, as well as homely.

The team at Romal is based on site together with our recommended lettings and property management agent and we all look forward to welcoming you to Liverpool Waters and your new home.

Construction Update For December For Park Central Liverpool Waters

/in , /by

So, as we are fast approaching the most wonderful time of the year, we wanted to give an update on the progress that has been completed on Park Central our second build here on Central Dock Liverpool.

The build itself is massively close to completion, the developers target was around March 2020, as we are still working towards finishing and welcoming our first residents around this time, perfect start to the spring, here on the water front.

We wanted the building to be watertight before the fast approaching winter weather arrives, this is now thankfully complete.

The brickwork externally is coming along wonderful with East and South sides now near completion, internally the fit out as in kitchens and floors are more than over halfway complete, doors and tiling are over 70% complete.

We’ve received some fantastic comments about Romal’s second build, we know speaking to all our wonderful residents here at Quay Central that as we fast approach completion all residents will be looked after and will be made to feel very welcome.

As we were the first to complete here on Central Dock with Quay Central, we wanted to make sure that everyone was looked after and to be available on site daily to assist and make move-in’s that bit easier, this has shown that Romal are committed to make the process memorable, and assure that the service we provide will be on going through-out the coming months and throughout 2020.

Liverpool itself has so much to offer and our location is perfect for people who want to take it all in, but then step away and enjoy the beautiful calmness and relax by the water.

There’s exciting plans for the whole of the Central Dock area, this new development and neighbourhood is just part of Liverpool Waters £5.5bn development that has been proposed by the Peel Group.

The development will make use of a series of presently derelict dock spaces at Central Docks, with much of the docks in a World Heritage Site.

Construction Update on Romal Capital’s next phase – Park Central

/in /by

Whilst the team at Romal Capital have been busy welcoming residents to the completed Quay Central, we have also been hard at work next door as phase two, Park Central, continues to progress well.

With the piling, ground drainage and steel frame all completed, together with the stairs installed to level 13, June saw the start of the mechanical and engineering fit out on.

Progress has since continued with external brick work commencing and window installation taking place  alongside interior fit out of the bathroom and kitchens to the lower levels.

This means that we are continuing to build to schedule and we are on course to finish Park Central in March 2020.

We are very happy with the progress and quality of the work and we look forward updating you further next month and being able to show you pictures of inside the apartments.

Until then please enjoy the latest time lapse of the last 4 months of the construction of Park Central.

 

 

 

Liverpool is the fastest growing UK city and there is still room for more

/in , /by
New figures show many buyers and investors are purchasing properties in more affordable cities like Liverpool, which also boasts the largest annual house price growth in the UK.

HomeTrack recently released the UK Cities House Price Index for August. Despite the uncertainty of Brexit’s impact on house prices, the data has indicated there is still room for further price growth in the most affordable cities. In the UK’s key cities, property prices went up by 3.9% year-on-year. The report states: “There has been an increase in the quarterly and annual rate of growth in recent months. This is primarily a result of an acceleration in house price growth in the most affordable cities.”

Liverpool is UK’s fastest growing city

Despite being the most affordable city on the index, Liverpool produced the highest annual price growth at 7.5%, making it the fastest growing city in the UK. With an average property price of £120,100, this is still lower than the city’s average price in 2007, so there may well be room for further improvement.

Liverpool’s housing market is expected to continue to excel and has even been named the buy-to-let capital of the UK. Additionally, an online register was recently launched in Liverpool to simplify the conveyancing process, making it an appealing city for house-hunters.

Cambridge, London, and Aberdeen were the only cities on the list seeing housing prices fall from August 2017 to August 2018. The capital and Cambridge also had the most expensive average property prices at £485,300 and £431,600. HomeTrack’s report says: “The slowdown in sales volumes and house price inflation has been focused on south eastern England, and primarily London. In our view, the Referendum result was a compounding factor for the slowdown in London house price growth since 2015.” Many investors and buyers are seeing the benefits in steering away from London and buying or investing in properties in more affordable cities, especially in the north.

The launch of the Park Central

/in , /by

After the success “Quay Central” which is the first phase of development at Central Docks at Peel Liverpool Waters, Romal Capital is to now launch “Park Central”.

 

Park Central will stand next to Quay Central and is a high specification new build development located in a core part of Liverpool Waters’ future cultural and leisure hub, Central Docks.

 

Central Docks will be the primary residential, business, entertainment and leisure district at Liverpool Waters. The neighbourhood will cover almost 18 hectares which will include a 16- acre new park named “Prospect Park”.

 

Park Central is named as it will be situated at the head of “Prospect Park” and will offer both park and river views across Prospect Park on the north of the building whilst the south side will provide stunning views of the city and dock.

 

The name “Park Central” is a take on Central Park in New York, a city which Liverpool is twinned with and historically enjoyed a long love affair.  It’s Liverpool’s greatest export to America, the Beatles, that a three -acres plot of land in Central Park, called Strawberry Fields, is dedicated to the memory of John Lennon, who lived opposite in the Dakota apartment building.  It was said that Lennon picked the apartment because the view reminded him of looking out over the parks in his native Liverpool.

 

The development will comprise of 129 apartments which will be a mix of 1 and 2 bed accommodation.

 

The building will reflect its surroundings and mimic Liverpool’s industrious heritage, with the building’s exterior exuding a warehouse aesthetic to fit in with the areas ambience.
