Welcome to Clockwork Court, our Inspired Living* one and two- bedroom apartments in Prescot. These beautiful new homes are located near the original Grade II listed Watchfactory building.
Building quality homes for over eight years, we've been making new homes affordable with a range of ways to buy.
Our developments range from small cul- de-sacs to building communities like The Watchfactory. These have included The Woodlands in Halewood, Mill Croft in Kirkby, and Sycamore Green in Huyton.
We're dedicated to building affordable new homes with a high specification whilst creating thriving communities.
Livv Homes is part of Livv Housing Group.

Right on your doorstep is the fully refurbished Watchfactory, a state of the art Grade II listed building, that opened in 1889 as a factory for the Lancashire Watch Company, later becoming army barracks and then a printworks.
The building is a significant part of Prescot's local history and gives the site its unique character. It opened as an extra care scheme in 2018, and the site now includes a bistro, outdoor space and a hair salon, all of which are open to you.

The Watchfactory is located to the east of Prescot and is within easy reach of the town centre which boasts a host of traders, boutiques, and places to eat.
Known for its historic buildings, Prescot was the only English town outside of London to have a purpose-built indoor playhouse in Elizabethan times. Making it the rightful home for the Shakespeare North Playhouse.
There are many popular stores at the nearby Cables Retail Park, along with a major supermarket. You're also close to one of Merseyside's top attractions, Knowsley Safari Park.
The town is conveniently located close to major road networks; it's just minutes away from the M57.
The recently refurbished Prescot railway station provides transport links into Liverpool, St Helens, Wigan, and further afield. Regular bus services also run throughout the area.
Everything you need (and more) is within easy reach.
The country's cultural capital
In less than 30 minutes, you can be in the heart of Liverpool's city centre, a place bursting with historical, cultural and leisure attractions. It's a city of creative types, music lovers, culture addicts and friendly faces.
There's plenty to do in the city, with more museums and theatres than in any other English city outside the capital. It's the proud home of two Premier League football clubs and, of course, the world-famous Beatles.
The amazing waterfront location of the city means there are incredible docks to explore as well as stunning architecture such as the Royal Albert Dock, the Royal Liver Building and Liverpool Cathedral.
If you enjoy shopping, you'll be spoilt for choice with an array of shopping centres, boutique arcades, bohemian streets and farmers' markets. And if you want to leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind, you can visit open green spaces such as Sefton Park (a magnificent 200-acre, Grade I listed park) or the red squirrel reserve at Formby. Being in this well- connected county means you're never far from the coastline, including the beautiful beaches of Formby, Crosby, Ainsdale and Southport, to name a few.
