Peab has transferred a property within Bahcostaden to Sakofall Fastigheter, which will build a four-story wooden apartment building with rental apartments for its own long-term ownership and management.
The sale of the property is the start of a collaboration with the ambition to work together on more of the remaining housing projects in Bahcostaden to complete the majority of the district. This is in line with the municipality's objectives for the area.
"We are very pleased with the dialog we have established with Sakofall and the shared ambition between the companies regarding the continued development of Bahcostaden. Our assessment is that the small-scale construction in combination with Sakofall's goal of long-term ownership of the homes will be an important addition to the area," says Anna Nygren Berg - Business Manager at Peab.
Sakofall is a real estate company originating in Dalarna that works with the entire chain from land acquisition to management. The company focuses on new production in growth areas with a documented housing shortage.
We are proud to take the next step in the development of Bahcostaden together with Peab. Our vision is to build sustainable and vibrant communities where people thrive - and this project is a concrete example of that. With our sustainable way of building in wood combined with our long-term management, we are creating quality homes for the future. We look forward to continuing to work closely together to realize the ambitions for the area," says Tom Sakofall - CEO of Sakofall.
Peab has owned the area, where Bahco's tool manufacturing was previously located in the Fanna district of Enköping, since the early 2010s. Over the years, Peab has built several blocks of housing in the area, both rental apartments and Tenant-owned homes, and now there are also plans for an elementary school (Bahcoskolan) with an associated sports hall - nestled in nature. The district, now called Bahcostaden, will continue to be developed with mixed housing in the form of apartment buildings and single-family homes such as villas and townhouses, and the next project in the area will begin in the fall.
