4-12 Buckland Street,
Chippendale, NSW 2008

CBRE, on behalf of University of Technology Sydney (UTS), is pleased to present a 100% freehold interest in 4-12 Buckland Street, Chippendale (‘Blackfriars’). Offered for the first time to market, Blackfriars is a mixed-use oasis in the heart of Sydney’s technology precinct, Tech Central, which is supported by $3.2bn in government investment.

The large ~6,059sqm site has obtained development approval for the addition of a 6,000sqm GFA ‘Innovation Hub’ for office and/or education use, and features two irreplaceable character buildings (~1,150sqm) and a childcare facility (~950sqm) for 84 placements.

There is scope to explore conversion of the development application to multiple alternate uses – supported by the site’s versatile MU1 Mixed-Use zoning. Alternate uses include residential, hotel, student accommodation, Co-living and BTR (STCA).

The site’s development potential is enhanced by the ability to generate holding income from the existing improvements.
