Berlin, 18 April 2018 – With a coherent, harmonious concept, The Grounds Real Estate Development AG (ISIN DE000A2GSVV5), a portfolio holder with a clear focus on the acquisition, project development and sustainable management of residential properties in Germany, has won Heubach municipal council’s approval to redevelop an urban district on the old Triumph site in Heubach, part of Stuttgart’s metropolitan region. Apartments, a care home and sheltered housing facilities, supplemented with opportunities for shopping and recreation, will be created on a 10,652 m2 area of land in this structurally strong region with great economic power. The urban district entirely follows the guiding principle of living in harmony with nature – for all generations! For example, it will include an integral combined heat and power station and solar energy, together with buildings planned according to the latest KfW (Reconstruction Loan Corporation) Energy-Efficient Building Standard. The total investment volume for this project development is approx. EUR 25 million.

A care home for 60 residents will be constructed between Böbinger Str. and Mögglinger Str. Roads, together with an additional building with 40 small apartments for sheltered housing. There is also provision for modern living accommodation on attractive terms in six terrace houses and other buildings with 32 apartments. The overall development also focused on integrating shopping facilities that will be augmented by the existing Lidl supermarket. The municipality has announced that it will decide on the development plan in September 2018, so a prompt start can be made on building permit applications, and construction is scheduled to start as early as 2019.
