Zurich, 14 February 2013 – Peach Property Group AG, a leading developer of high-quality residential real estate in the German-speaking region of Europe, has successfully completed subterranean work on the “Peninsula Beach House“ in Wädenswil outside of Zurich and commenced superstructure work according to plan. Completion of this exclusive project, with its luxurious condominiums directly on the shores of Lake Zurich, is scheduled for mid-2014. 13 of the 23 residential units have already been sold. Peach Property Group anticipates that this project will generate cashflows of CHF 10 to 12 million by the end of 2014.
Handover for the start of superstructure work
The highly demanding subterranean work for the “Peninsula Beach House” was performed by the specialised Implenia AG, and the company mastered the expected challenges to perfection: 30,000 m3 of excavated material had to be transported away; 223 displacement piles were bored into the ground to ultimately support the superstructure; for prevention groundwater intrusion into the construction pit, the substrate was sealed by means of a vibro-compaction process; and three tie positions for the 231 tension anchors were embedded into the ground to support the ten-metre-high excavation walls. The creation of a blinding layer out of lean concrete that covers the entire base area of the “Peninsula Beach House” represented the final part of the subterranean work. Alfred Müller AG from Zug (Switzerland) has now seamlessly commenced work on the superstructure.
The “Peninsula Beach House” is one of the most exclusive residential construction projects on the Lake of Zurich and offers a quality of life that is rarely to be found. Its future residents will enjoy direct access to the Lake and a breath-taking panoramic view. The saleable floor space amounts to 4,745 m2. The condominiums, with a sales price starting at CHF 2.5 million, are harmoniously nestled in an idyllic park designed by landscape architect Enzo Enea. The “Peninsula Beach House” also encompasses a private fitness and wellness area with spa, squash, exercise and indoor golf facilities, an aerobics room, as well as a 20-metre indoor pool and relaxation bath.
Further projects planned
Dr. Thomas Wolfensberger, CEO of Peach Property Group AG, commented: “We are very pleased about this successful conclusion of subterranean work. It represents an important milestone in the evolution of the ‘Peninsula Beach House’. The work has progressed smoothly and rapidly, so we are right on schedule in realising this unique project.”
The “Peninsula Beach House” is the first of a total of six projects that Peach Property Group is planning for the grounds of the historically significant Giessen industrial park in Wädenswil. The company is also pursuing development projects in Hamburg (“Harvestehuder Weg 36”, H36) and Berlin (“yoo berlin”, “Living 108”). The topping-out ceremony for “yoo berlin” was held this past November, and the topping-out ceremony for the second building phase for H36 will take place on 26 February. The “Schooren des Alpes” project, with its twelve high-quality condominiums in Kappl bei Ischgl (Austria) was completed just recently.
