In connection with the transaction, Wallenstam is also selling a portfolio of residential properties in Gothenburg and Partille to Ikano Bostad.
“It feels fantastic that we have had the opportunity to acquire this project close to the city with a complete zoning plan and ready building rights! The project is located very close to Södermalm, between Liljeholmskajen and Årstafältet urban development area. We will now be able to provide many new homes there, and we hope to get started with production already during 2023,” says Hans Wallenstam, CEO Wallenstam AB.
