With a busy main road on one side and a large council estate on the other, you wouldn't call Shaw Street the most sought-after city centre location, nevertheless The Collegiate is one of the few apartment blocks in Liverpool to score our top 10/10 rating - this converted school is just beautiful. Built in 1843, the award-winning refurbishment of this Grade-II Gothic masterpiece by Urban Splash has created some of the finest loft apartments in Liverpool with high-quality fittings, interesting duplex layouts and quirky finishes. All 95 apartments are beautifully-designed and the communal spaces are attractive, especially the octagonal terrace converted from the school's original lecture hall
