\nArdian acquires Hamburg-based office complex \u201cQuartier 21\u201d from QUEST Funds.\u00a0The acquisition marks Ardian\u2019s first real estate investment in Hamburg with plans for a significant capital expenditure program.<\/span>
\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/span><\/h2>[vc_column_text]Hamburg\/Frankfurt am Main, October 4, 2021<\/strong> \u2013 Ardian, a world leading private investment house, has acquired the office and commercial building \u201cQ21 Offices\u201d located at Fuhlsbu\u0308ttler Strasse in Hamburg, Barmbek. The seller is a retail fund managed by the real estate investment and asset manager QUEST Funds. The parties have agreed not to disclose the financial details of the transaction. QUEST Funds had previously concluded lease extensions for more than 2,100 m2 with denn’s Biomarkt, Targobank and Budni drugstore in April 2021.<\/p>\n

Centrally located in the up-and-coming district of Barmbek in Hamburg Nord, the property was built in 2012 and covers around 20,000 m2 of rental space permitting flexible usage. The complex has 299 underground parking spaces and 15 outdoor parking spaces. In addition, public transport such as buses and trams are within a short walking distance, and the airport, city center and major highways can be reached in less than 20 minutes.<\/p>\n

Constructed between 2008 and 2013, Quartier 21 is an ensemble of 21 listed historic buildings and 16 modern buildings on the site of the former General Hospital of Barmbek. The name also reflects the vision of intergenerational living and working in the 21st century, which has been put into practice here. The area has a neighborhood feel and encompasses 14 hectares of parkland, apartments and townhouses as well as healthcare, education, offices, retail and amenity facilities in close vicinity.<\/p>\n

Roland Holschuh, Managing Partner at QUEST Funds, said: \u201cAs an asset manager, we are proud that our active management has contributed to increasing the attractiveness of the neighborhood and that we have also been able to achieve a very attractive overall result for our investors.\u201d
\nThe Ardian team plans to undertake extensive upgrading measures to reposition the property in the market and sustainably increase the attractiveness of the building.<\/p>\n

Bernd Haggenmu\u0308ller, Senior Managing Director at Ardian Real Estate, said: \u201cQuartier 21 is ideally located in the vibrant district of Hamburg Barmbek. We see considerable development potential in this property, which we intend to realize through targeted investments. Quartier 21 fits perfectly into our investment strategy of acquiring and developing high-potential core plus and value-add properties in key European cities. Having already made successful investments in Munich, Berlin and Frankfurt in Germany, this transaction now marks our first investment in Hamburg. In our view, investments in office space in top cities continue to be attractive. Office properties will not become less important following the pandemic and changing work models, rather they will be designed differently to fulfill additional functions. As a real estate investor and asset manager, we are actively shaping this change.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]About QUEST Investment Partners<\/strong>
