The large sash windows in this workspace look directly onto Sunniside Park and so could be branded up to promote the business operating inside. The space also has its own intercom system connecting to the main door of the building.

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.

Other tenants at the property include a sports supplement online retailing business, a wellbeing supplements online retailing business, and an independent arts charity.

This workspace is available from December 2025 and will be provided unfurnished and fully cleaned ready for its new commercial occupant, having previously been leased by a film and production consultant who has used the space for many years but is now spending more time internationally and so is moving on from the Marengo Estates family!

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.
