Leading Dubai-Based luxury property group, Habitia Group UAE, successfully acquires it’s first UK landmark development, City Walk by Habitia Group.
As part of its strategic international expansion, City Walk by Habitia will strengthen the company’s presence in the UK property market following a series of successful, bespoke projects and developments in Dubai. This milestone signifies Habitia Group’s commitment to investing in transformative development projects across key markets.
Spanning four acres, City Walk by Habitia will feature 507 high-quality residential apartments across four striking architectural blocks, reaching up to 11 storeys. The development offers a mix of 147 one-bedroom, 330 two-bedroom, and 30 three-bedroom apartments, catering to a diverse range of buyers and investors. The well-positioned scheme is located in L3, less than a 10-minute walk from Liverpool City Centre and the business district. The site holds strategic importance to both the Ten Streets regeneration area and the Pumpfields regeneration masterplan, acting as a vital link between the two and playing a key role in the local authority’s aspirations.
Designed to foster a sense of community, the development will feature enclosed communal courtyards, providing dual-aspect views from the apartments, alongside beautifully landscaped gardens. The ground floor will offer a vibrant mix of twenty-six retail, commercial, and communal amenities, enhancing the local environment and creating a thriving, live-in village. Residents will benefit from on-site coworking spaces, private gym facilities, and leisure amenities. Additionally, disused railway arches on the northern plots will be repurposed for commercial use, bringing in independent and start-up businesses to further enrich the on-site amenities and contribute to the social hub environment.
Speaking on the group’s vision, Mr Ian Ringwood, CEO for Habitia Group UAE, shared his excitement about the project: “City Walk by Habitia Group is a truly transformative development in a prime location. We are delighted to proceed with this exciting project, working closely with Network Rail to bring a dynamic, thriving residential and commercial community to Liverpool. We are currently assembling the design and construction team to bring this prestigious development to life.”
“With major projects such as Liverpool Waters, the Knowledge Quarter, and the Ten Streets regeneration, Liverpool is undergoing an exciting transformation. Its world-class universities, rich cultural heritage, and thriving business sector make it a prime destination for investors seeking long-term value and strong rental yields. Habitia Group UAE, alongside our funding partners, is excited to deliver this landmark development and contribute to Liverpool’s evolving skyline.”
