Behind a restored 19th-century shopfront, 466 Cleveland Street has been transformed by CplusC Architects + Builders into a two-level head office that fuses heritage fabric with a contemporary rear addition. Since its restoration, the building has become a local landmark once more. Public interest in the heritage façade is part of the asset – a commercial building with street memory, presence and an audience before the next owner even opens the door.
Known for boundary-pushing sustainable architecture, CplusC has added a contemporary rear extension that draws light, air and vegetation deep into the plan. Designed from the outset for flexible use, the building can operate as a single headquarters or accommodate multiple tenancies, making it particularly well suited to growing creative businesses. Accommodation is arranged across two levels, with separate ground-floor office space and an upper-level workspace with kitchen pod, meeting room and terrace.
Delorean Victorian is both workplace and proof of practice: a clear expression of CplusC’s approach to reuse, construction, sustainability and the activation of the streetscape. It is a rare commercial offering for a design-led owner-occupier or investor seeking a Surry Hills building with architectural identity, street presence, approved commercial use and genuine flexibility for future occupation.
