Smithdown Road

Luxury Student Homes offers houses on and around Smithdown Road (L15), the beating heart of student Liverpool. You’re in one of the city’s best food and drink scenes, with Asda and Aldi close by, and the 86, 86A and 86C running into the centre every few minutes – 10 to 20 minutes to the University of Liverpool and LJMU.

Living around Wavertree and Greenbank

Smithdown Road is one of the most recognisable student areas in Liverpool, known for its high-energy atmosphere and great selection of food and drink spots.

Make our Smithdown student accommodation your home, and enjoy the atmosphere first-hand. The road sits within the wider Wavertree student area, and the Greenbank end gives you close contact with greenery (for those much-needed study breaks!)

What’s Nearby?

For food and drink, those living in our Smithdown student accommodation are spoilt for choice! You’ll see favourites like The Brookhouse, plus spots like BlackCat, Kelly’s Dispensary and Handyman Supermarket for bar-hopping.

If you’re more brunch than pints, The Tavern Company is a Smithdown classic, and there are plenty of reliable eats nearby too, including Pizza Hut, Spitroast (for freshly-cooked chicken and chips) and LEAF for loose-leaf teas and big breakfasts.

When you need to shop, our student homes are en route to a local Tesco, Aldi and ASDA. You’ll come across smaller shops for top-ups, including international mini-markets and quick-stop convenience stores.

If you need specialist groceries, Purple Carrot (Liverpool’s first vegan and organic supermarket) can also be found along Smithdown Road. Houses in the area are in great proximity to some of the best green spaces south of the city.

If you enjoy running, Sefton Park is a 20-minute walk away from Smithdown, where you can stop for a picnic near the Palm House or head to Greenbank Park for a lakeside wander. When you want a change of scenery, Princes Park is close as well.
