Berlin—Global law firm Dentons has advised INTERNOS Spezialfondsgesellschaft on the acquisition of “Seniorencampus Herne-Baukau”, a nursing home property in Herne, Germany, from Dietz & Kaffanke GbR.

The property is currently under construction and is scheduled to be completed in November 2017. It will provide more than 80 nursing home places in single rooms as well as a pharmacy, a general medical practice and a physiotherapy practice. The building has a total area of 4.850 sq. m. and is already leased for 25 years to Protea Care GmbH.

This building is the first of its kind in Germany to use an air-conditioning system that works with concrete core activation, which is a very cost-efficient method for heating and cooling buildings.
