Georgian townhouse facade at golden hour
04 · Real Estate

A few buildings,
held for a long time.

A small collection of residential and commercial real estate across Europe. Most have been with us for more than a decade. None are for sale.

Our approach

We buy buildings the way we back founders — slowly, with conviction, and we plan to be there in twenty years.

Most of these properties serve a dual purpose. They are family homes for clients we have looked after for years, offices for portfolio companies between rounds, or simply quiet places to meet a founder away from the noise. The list below is partial, and shared because clients sometimes ask.
