Deutsche Investment just purchased a residential building in one of Berlin’s most popular and sought-after locali-ties. Most striking about the early-twentieth-century building is its classic architecture, its stable tenancy situa-tion and its long-term value-added potential.
The property comprises 19 residential units with a combined lettable area of around 1,540 sqm, distributed across four full storeys. Pinpoint investments in energy upgrades and value-adding modernisation measures could further exploit the property’s appreciation potential and ensure the permanent preservation of the build-ing fabric.
The immediately surrounding area is characterised by a historically evolved infrastructure that includes diversi-fied local amenities, gastronomy, green spaces and very easy access to public transportation – all of these being factors that further augment the long-term lettability of the property.
“Friedenau is known for its historically grown neighbourhoods, high quality of living and sustained demand,” said Gilbert Merz, Head of Transaction Management at Deutsche Investment. “Through this acquisition, we are de-liberately investing in a property in an excellent micro-location that boasts a resilient income basis and additional potential for capital appreciation.”
“Particularly compelling is the combination of architectural quality, a stable tenant structure and the option to generate further value added through specific upgrades,” added Nina Sobotta, Senior Transaction Manager at Deutsche Investment.
The technical and legal due diligence was facilitated by CBRE Berlin and the Vesthaus Rechtsanwälte PartG mbB law firm. Wüest Partner acted as appraisers.
The property title transferred to Deutsche Investment in February 2026.
