129 Chester Road occupies a prominent position on one of Sunderland’s busiest main roads, offering excellent visibility and footfall. Chester Road is a well-established mixed-use area with a wide range of independent retailers, cafes, takeaways, and professional services, creating a lively trading environment. The property is conveniently located approximately 0.5 miles west of Sunderland city centre and within easy walking distance of the University of Sunderland’s City Campus, the Royal Hospital, and various student accommodations — all of which generate strong local demand and passing trade.
The surrounding area benefits from good transport links, with regular bus services running along Chester Road and Millfield Metro Station less than 10 minutes’ walk away, providing easy access across Sunderland and into Newcastle upon Tyne. Major road connections such as the A1231, A690, and A19 are also nearby, offering excellent regional connectivity.

Description
We are delighted to present to the market this well-presented mid-terrace, two-storey property comprising a ground floor retail unit with a three-bedroom maisonette above. The property is offered with vacant possession and represents an excellent opportunity for a variety of potential uses.
The maisonette benefits from private rear access as well as internal access from the retail unit, providing flexibility for either combined or separate occupation. The ground floor was previously operated as an off-licence and convenience store, though the premises have not been traded from for several years, offering a blank canvas for a new business venture.
To the rear, the property benefits from a private yard and garage, providing valuable storage or parking space. Overall, this property would be ideally suited to investors or owner-occupiers seeking a versatile retail and residential opportunity in a well-established location.
