Starlight Investments Celebrates Completion of Lighthaus Tower
Starlight Investments has reached a significant milestone with the completion of Lighthaus Tower, a 31-story residential building in Liverpool, offering 278 new rental apartments in one of the UK's most dynamic housing markets. This project not only marks a key development in Liverpool's ongoing transformation but also aligns with the rising demand for quality rental properties in the region.
Lighthaus Tower, strategically situated in Liverpool's waterfront area, boasts a diverse range of apartments, including studios, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom units. Residents can enjoy high-end communal spaces such as a stunning sky lounge that offers panoramic views of the waterfront, a rooftop terrace, a fully-equipped fitness center, workspaces, and round-the-clock concierge services. These amenities are designed to enhance the modern living experience that the area promises.
The pre-leasing interest in Lighthaus has been remarkable, reflecting a growing trend where nearly 29% of the city's populace resides in private rentals. However, current housing development has struggled to keep pace with the population surge, thus making Lighthaus a critical addition to the market. As Jonnie Milich, Head of UK Residential at Starlight Investments, stated, “Build-to-rent in the North has entered a new phase. Lighthaus illustrates what the next generation of rental housing looks like, characterized by thoughtfully designed spaces, professional management, and access to lifestyle amenities.”
Developed in collaboration with X1 Developments and Vermont Construction, Lighthaus is a central component of the ambitious £5 billion Liverpool Waters Masterplan. This masterplan is touted as the largest urban regeneration initiative in the city's history, aiming to deliver 9,000 new homes, alongside expansive commercial and recreational spaces, thereby fortifying Liverpool's status as a major growth center in the North.
Raj Mehta, President of Global Markets at Starlight Investments, emphasized that delivering new housing on such a scale requires genuine collaboration among public and private entities. He remarked, “Lighthaus embodies this collaboration, contributing to housing supply, boosting local employment, and strengthening community ties. We are thankful to the Liverpool City Council and the Liverpool City Region Combined Authority for their leadership and ongoing support in realizing this vision.”
Starlight's expansion in the UK is noteworthy, with over 2,000 apartments currently under construction in cities like Manchester, Leeds, and Liverpool. Additionally, with projects slated in Ashford, Dartford, Basildon, and Maidenhead, the company aims to provide more than 4,000 rental homes in the British market. Starlight's strategy centers on long-term investments, regional revitalization, and creating high-quality rental communities that meet genuine housing needs.
In conclusion, Lighthaus Tower is not just another residential project; it's a symbol of Liverpool's evolution into a prominent rental market, equipped with modern amenities that cater to today's lifestyle. As Starlight Investments continues to push the boundaries of residential living, the future looks bright for Liverpool and its residents.
