14 Sherburn Road Durham DH1 2JR
Description
Certificate of Lawful Existing Use to confirm that the property's established use as a small HMO (Class C4) was in place before the introduction of the Durham City Article 4 Direction (1 September 2016) and has continued lawfully to the present day. The property has been used as shared accommodation by unrelated tenants, typically three people, sharing the kitchen, bathroom and living areas. The occupiers have mainly been full-time students. The property has been used in this way since at least the 2006/2007 academic year and has continued to be used in the same way up to the present. I purchased the property in 2020 and the use has remained the same since then. The use applies to the whole property.
