The Grounds Real Estate Development AG: Building development plan for the urban district in the Stuttgart metropolitan region is legally finalised

Berlin, 21 August 2019. The Grounds Real Estate Development AG (ISIN DE000A2GSVV5) is currently finalising building applications for the urban district planned in Heubach (Stuttgart metropolitan region), and expects to submit them by early October 2019 at the latest. The building development plan has been finally agreed with Heubach municipal council and is now legally finalised. It provides for 7,711 m² of living area, including owner-occupied apartments and a nursing home for approx. sixty residents together with day-care, on a site area of around 10,700 m². Furthermore, “age-appropriate” sheltered housing will also be built, together with sufficient play opportunities in the area of the owner-occupied apartments. The guiding principle of living in harmony with nature is the main focus in this respect. The intention, therefore, is also to construct a combined heat-and-power plant, and the buildings will be planned in accordance with the KfW-55 energy-efficient building standard. Start of construction work is planned for May/June 2020.

For marketing, a well-known sales partner in Southern Germany has been gained, with whom the sales presentations are now being prepared and floor plans fine-tuned.
