23 Aigburth Road & 34 Alexandra Drive is a 57-home mixed-tenure residential development located within the Lark Lane Conservation Area in South Liverpool.
The scheme combines the sensitive restoration of the Grade II listed ‘Enmore’ villa on Alexandra Drive with a complementary new-build apartment building fronting Aigburth Road. The existing villa, which has suffered significant fire damage and long-term vacancy, is carefully repaired and brought back into active use, securing its long-term future.
Heritage has been central to the design approach. Key architectural features, including decorative plasterwork, stained glass elements and the original staircase, are retained and protected where possible, with new interventions designed to sit comfortably alon gside the historic fabric.
The new-build element responds to the established character of the conservation area through its scale, materiality and articulation, respecting the surrounding urban grain.
The development delivers a mix of apartments for social rent, shared ownership and rent-to-buy, broadening housing choice in one of Liverpool’s most desirable neighbourhoods. A generous communal garden sits at the heart of the site, enhancing biodiversity and providing meaningful shared outdoor space for residents.
The project targets high sustainability standards, with the new-build element designed to achieve EPC A and the restored villa incorporating fabric upgrades and low-carbon systems in a considered and contextually sensitive manner.
