The property is located on The Quadrant Road in Sunderland’s historic East End, overlooking the Sunderland Docks and situated within The Old Sunderland Conservation Area.

Sunderland’s East End has a rich industrial heritage dating back to the early 18th century, when shipbuilding and maritime trade flourished along the banks of the River Wear. Notable surviving buildings from this period include Holy Trinity Church and the Queen Street Masonic Temple, both of which reflect the area’s early development. By the mid-20th century, much of the Victorian-era housing stock had been replaced as part of widespread regeneration programmes aimed at improving living conditions for residents.

Today, the area benefits from excellent connectivity and close proximity to Sunderland City Centre, offering convenient access to shopping, business, and leisure amenities. The property lies just east of the A690, providing efficient transport links to south Sunderland and County Durham, as well as northwards to Tyneside and Newcastle.

The property comprises a substantial detached brick-built building constructed in 1886, originally serving as the vicarage for the neighbouring Holy Trinity Church. Arranged over three levels, the building remained unused for a number of years before undergoing an extensive refurbishment in the late 2000s, completed to an exceptionally high standard throughout.

The ground floor features a well-appointed bar and lounge area, high-quality W.C. facilities, generous storage provisions, and direct access to the rear yard.

The first floor offers three spacious bedrooms, each with its own high-specification en-suite, together with a lounge, bathroom, and a modern, fully fitted kitchen.

The second floor provides an additional two bedrooms, a further lounge, a kitchen, and a bathroom, offering flexible accommodation suitable for a variety of uses.

Externally, the property benefits from a brick-paved rear yard enclosed by a stone wall boundary, while the front of the building features a small, neatly presented yard area with a brick wall and two carved stone entrance pillars with an adjoining gate.

The building has been well preserved and carefully maintained over the years and is currently leased to a charity.
