Providing a bright, modern and flexible working environment aligned with current occupier requirements.

The Greenhouse is located on Greencroft Industrial Park, a well-established business destination in Stanley, County Durham. The estate is home to a range of occupiers including Karbon Homes and Lanchester Wines, providing a strong and established commercial environment.

The property benefits from excellent connectivity, situated approximately 8 miles north-west of Durham City and 15 miles south-west of Newcastle upon Tyne. Road access is via Greencroft Parkway, which links directly to the A693 and the wider regional road network.

Durham railway station, approximately 8 miles to the south-east, provides direct access to the East Coast Main Line, offering regular services to London, Newcastle and Edinburgh. Newcastle International Airport is located approximately 19 miles to the north.

Terms

The accommodation is available by way of a new effective full repairing and insuring (efri) lease for a term of years to be agreed, at a quoting rent of £50,000 per floor (£100,000 per annum for the whole).

Ownership & Social Impact

The Greenhouse is owned and operated by Groundwork North East & Cumbria, part of the wider Groundwork UK federation - a charitable organisation focused on delivering environmental and community initiatives across the region.

Income generated from The Greenhouse is reinvested into local projects and programmes, supporting environmental improvement, community wellbeing and wider social impact initiatives throughout the North East.
