Spandau as an investment location for real estate
Stable demand between the old town, the banks of the Havel and Siemensstadt
Spandau combines historic old town quality, attractive Havel and lake locations and urban growth axes to create a balanced investment profile with solid lettability and a broad target group appeal. Premium residential locations are emerging and stabilizing along the waterfront locations around the Oberhavel water city and "Waterkant Berlin", which act as large-scale additions to established neighbourhoods from Haselhorst to Spandau city centre. The proximity to the city center via the Berlin-Spandau ICE train station, the U7 underground line, S-Bahn junctions and freeway connections ensures good accessibility, while green open spaces and a high quality of everyday life strengthen tenant loyalty.
Micro-location advantages: Haselhorst, Siemensstadt, Insel Gartenfeld and Wasserstadt
Haselhorst and Siemensstadt benefit from a strong project pipeline and the reactivation of the Siemensbahn axis; in the surrounding area, the need for social infrastructure and demand for well-connected housing are increasing, which improves re-letting potential. Siemensstadt² (Siemensstadt Square) will create an open innovation and urban quarter with offices, research, commerce, public space and around 2,700 apartments on around 70-76 hectares by 2035 - a catalyst for employment, footfall and residential demand close to the district in the north-east of Spandau. Waterfront locations on the Havel, Spree and Berlin-Spandau shipping canal - including Gartenfeld Island and Waterkant - offer long-term prospects for enhancement through mixed use, open space quality and improved mobility.
Future impetus: Berlin TXL neighborhood, major projects and ESG levers
The proximity to Berlin TXL with the Urban Tech Republic and the Schumacher Quartier provides additional impetus for employment, demand and supply in the north-west of Berlin; over 5,000 apartments are planned in the Schumacher Quartier and a further approx. 4,000 units in Cité Pasteur and TXL Nord, with construction starting in 2026 and first occupancy expected from 2028. In Spandau itself, Siemensstadt², Waterkant Berlin and Insel Gartenfeld are driving development forward, flanked by "sustainable renewal" programs and integrated concepts for Haselhorst/Siemensstadt that systematically improve mobility, social infrastructure and public space. ESG-oriented modernization, efficient heating, insulation, window upgrades, PV and green space quality increase energy parameters, reduce operating costs and strengthen exit prospects - especially in properties along the development axes and water-related micro-locations.
