Bouwinvest Dutch Senior Living Impact Fund acquires 104 assisted-living apartments in Soesterberg
December 19, 2025
Bouwinvest’s Dutch Senior Living Impact Fund has signed an agreement to purchase the Het Kwartier residential project in Soesterberg, which consists of 104 assisted-living apartments. This is the fund's second investment, following its launch in 2025. The fund’s focus is on the realisation of high-quality and sustainable residential care solutions for senior citizens in the Netherlands. The seller is Schavast, part of the Schagen Group, which has experience in the redevelopment of listed buildings and care-related properties.
The fund considers this acquisition as the next step in building a diversified portfolio of senior housing, while at the same time working on the fund’s continued volume growth of its portfolio. The Dutch Senior Living Impact Fund is open to new institutional investors who wish to participate in the expansion of future-proof residential care locations in the Netherlands.
Het Kwartier is part of an ensemble of buildings, along with the existing Officierscasino (officers’ mess) and the future extension to this building. The three buildings will soon stand together in a park designed by landscape architects Copijn. The apartments will vary in size between approximately 58 m² and 106 m², including private outdoor space. They will be part of a new-build complex with an underground car park and a communal meeting space supported by a community manager.
“Demographic developments and the growing demand for suitable housing call for acceleration,” says Maya Savelkoul, Fund Manager of the Dutch Senior Living Impact Fund at Bouwinvest. “With this second investment, we are continuing our efforts to build a future-proof portfolio. We are keen to work with developers and partners who want to contribute to better residential care solutions for senior citizens, in both new and existing buildings.”
The project is being developed with a strong focus on energy efficiency and future-proofing and will make a concrete contribution to the fund’s ESG objectives. For instance, the project also focuses on affordability, as a number of the apartments will be in the mid-rental segment.
The building is will come with full amenities and has been designed to enable residents to live independently for as long as possible with support close at hand. The design of the courtyard garden and the park surrounding the building is also geared towards the target group. Construction is expected to start sometime in the summer of 2026, with completion scheduled approximately two years later.
The seller was assisted in this transaction by real estate company JB Vastgoed and law firm De Haan Advocaten. The buyer was assisted by N/P Notarial Partners.
