Located in Essen’s Südviertel, the project comprised two office investments and one residential office block, including the former Ferrostaal building ensemble, with approximately 35,000 sq m of office and residential space. The acquisition represented a substantial investment into a well-located urban asset with a diverse occupier base and clear potential for long-term value creation. The project demonstrates Henley’s experience across European commercial real estate, combining market insight, disciplined execution and hands-on asset management to enhance performance across mixed-use investments.

Repositioning a mixed-use office complex in one of Germany’s key regional markets.
Location: Essen, Germany
Overview
Henley’s Essen investment reflects the firm’s ability to identify value in established European office markets and reposition complex, multi-building assets through active asset management.
”“Essen is a good example of Henley’s ability to look beyond headline markets and recognise value in established regional centres with strong occupier fundamentals. By taking a hands-on approach to asset management, we are able to improve the performance of complex assets and create value for investors over time.”
