A fantastic opportunity to relocate your business to the City Centre building that was the birthplace of Sunderland AFC!

This first floor private lockable workspace spanning approximately 75 square feet is a highlight in our newest commercial workspace offer at 34 Norfolk Street. Following a half million pound high quality refurbishment this workspace is now ready for its first ever commercial occupant. The workspace forms part of our development of 12 brand new workspaces in this beautiful heritage property that boasts many original features throughout the building and has been refitted to the highest standards. Fresh plaster and paintwork, brand new electricals and fire alarm systems have all been installed to meet the latest building regulations and standards.

This workspace would be ideal for creative activities, artists and hobbyists, or for an independent consultant or as an office space for one person who is looking for somewhere affordable to rent to work from away from home.

The workspace comprises a small first floor room with sink unit and a large window letting in lots of light. The building occupies a commanding position on Sunniside Park, a very up-and-coming area in Sunderland City Centre, which is undergoing multi-million pound regeneration and attracting extensive business and local authority investment.

The property provides fantastic facilities including a common kitchen and multiple WCs, with all common spaces kept to high standards of cleanliness with weekly cleans from our in-house cleaning team.

The new commercial tenant in this property would be working alongside a vibrant mix of commercial tenants who have already taken workspace in the building, including three tattooists, a beautician and a potter, as well as a tenant using a space as an office.

The price includes:
*24 hour access
*City centre parking
*All utilities except for electricity use in the room - estimated at £10 per month, depending on usage habits
*Business rates
*Complimentary refreshments - tea, coffee and biscuits
*Access to shared kitchen and WC facilities (cleaned regularly and well-maintained!)
*Maintenance and servicing
*No VAT to pay

We are a doggy-friendly landlord, welcoming tenants' prized pooches into our buildings, so you can even bring your well-behaved canine companions in to work with you.

This workspace is available for immediate occupation and is provided unfurnished and fully cleaned ready for its new commercial occupant, who would be the first ever commercial tenant to take a lease on the space, which still smells of fresh paint and is brand new.

We are a professional and independent workspace provider and we take a pride in keeping our buildings in top notch condition. Our leases are straight-forward and clear, we have our own in-house maintenance team and we are passionate about providing a great service to our tenants. We have over 100 commercial workspaces in a range of quirky heritage buildings across Sunderland City Centre. We are one of Sunderland's most affordable professional workspace providers and have a decade of experience in offering workspace to all kinds of local and independent businesses and creatives. We are consistently at 95% + occupancy rates and tenants typically stay with us for years. Our tenants range from independents, artists and creatives to non-profits, beauty and tattoo, fitness, counselling, consultants, online retailers and wholesalers and much more besides.

Mark & team at Marengo Estates

About Us
Marengo Estates was established in 2020 by Mark Burns Cassell and Vin Todd, with the vision of bringing our new and existing property portfolio under one roof, in order to make finding the perfect workspace simpler and more efficient.

The name Marengo was inspired by our flagship building, Hills Art Centre, which is situated at 17/18 Waterloo Place. Because of our love of history and heritage buildings, during our research we found out Napoleon's horse was called Marengo, and that name just felt right (especially as Mark is affectionately known as 'Little Napoleon' around the office...).

At Marengo, we are passionate about bringing people together and providing them with a creative space to collaborate and grow their businesses. We offer a range of workspaces for rent, with all the necessary amenities, and we take pride in providing a high quality, genuine and professional service offer for all our tenants in each of the distinctive, quirky and historic buildings in our portfolio.

We strive to create an environment that is conducive to creativity, collaboration and productivity. Our work spaces are designed to be inspiring and to provide a space for people to come together, network and exchange ideas. Our goal is to provide an inclusive and supportive environment where individuals can grow, connect and succeed.

We are continuing to grow our presence in Sunderland and the wider North East, we're in the process of adding three exciting new buildings to our portfolio - more details coming soon. We will be spending the coming months (and years) working our magic on these new acquisitions, creating even more space for the talented independent businesses, makers, entrepreneurs, creatives and innovators across the North East to thrive. You can keep up to date with all our latest developments, and follow our journey on our socials.

We'd love you to join the Marengo family and can't wait to meet the fantastic independent businesses and creatives our new buildings will soon become home to.","disclaimer":{"raw":"Disclaimer - Property reference Marengo4.
