The wreath for the topping-out has been hoisted: in the BUWOG SPEICHERBALLETT development in Berlin-Spandau the construction of a special property is making good progress – apartments for senior citizens, two dementia housing groups and a daycare facility are being built on approximately 7,160 m² of floor area. advita Pflegedienst GmbH is expected to open advita Haus Am Havelufer in the centre of Berlin’s Spandau district in fall of 2024.
In the new development, future clients will find a modern alternative to the traditional care home that will enable people to live a safe and self-determined life into old age. Short distances and the bundling of services in one place are a major benefit for people. The barrier-free apartments and the residential community offer a wide range of opportunities for living the way one hopes to, even if initial limitations make everyday life more difficult. The tenants themselves will furnish the apartments and rooms in shared housing the way they wish.
The building will offer a total of 90 assisted living apartments. There will also be two residential care communities for 12 tenants each and a daycare centre with space for 36 guests. The building is scheduled to open in fall of 2024.
Eva Weiß, managing director of BUWOG Bauträger GmbH: “We are delighted with the outstanding progress of the construction for advita Haus am Havelufer. The building concept, architecture and its functions are precisely tailored to people’s special needs. The new range of services will be an excellent complement to the diversity of the development and contribute to social sustainability.” Following completion by BUWOG, the property will be handed over to a special fund represented by Deutsche Asset One GmbH as the new owner and then occupied by Zusammen Zuhause GmbH.
Dr. Roland Schmitt, managing director of Zusammen Zuhause GmbH: “There is a considerable demand for senior-friendly housing in the capital, so we are all the more delighted to be able to open another advita home in Spandau to meet the growing demand. In this impressive property directly on the Havel, advita Pflegedienst GmbH provides care and support in shared apartments, assisted living and a daycare centre – with all of the services offered under one umbrella organisation.”
