Torveporten was completed in 2024 and comprises approximately 15,200 square metres of residential space, in addition to complementary commercial areas. The property is fully let, DGNB Gold certified and has an EPC A energy rating.
The property offers extensive communal areas and amenities, including a rooftop terrace, work and study areas, shared kitchens, a cinema and event space, laundry facilities, as well as a gym operated by an external operator. Torveporten forms part of the transformation of the former wholesale market Grønttorvet into an attractive mixed-use area.
Valby is an established residential district in Copenhagen, offering excellent public transport connections to central Copenhagen as well as close proximity to retail, green spaces and local services. The acquisition reflects Alma and SF’s continued positive outlook on the Copenhagen residential market, supported by population growth, limited new housing supply and sustained demand for modern rental housing.
Hüseyin Meric, Partner at Alma, comments:
“Torveporten is a high-quality, modern residential property in an attractive part of Copenhagen. We see a clear opportunity to build on the strong platform already established and further tailor the offering to young professionals – a growing demographic with a clear need for flexible, well-designed housing combined with attractive communal spaces. We look forward to working together with SF Management, whose operational capabilities and experience within the segment make them a strong partner for the investment. We would also like to thank Urban Partners for a constructive and professional process.”
Jacob Bruun Borring, Partner at SF Management, adds:
“Torveporten is a strong fit with our experience in micro-living and operational residential concepts. The property already offers an attractive combination of space-efficient homes, extensive communal areas and a strong location. Together with Alma, we look forward to further developing the concept and creating an attractive living environment for current and future residents.”
Thomas Riise-Jakobsen, Partner and Country Head at Urban Partners, comments:
“We are pleased to have completed the sale of Torveporten UMEUS to Alma Property Partners and SF Management. Torveporten has established itself as a high-quality student housing asset in one of Copenhagen’s most attractive locations, and we are pleased to hand over the property to new owners who can continue to build on the strong foundation that has been created. The transaction also marks the completion of the sale of the fund’s UMEUS portfolio.”
Alma and SF were advised by Bruun & Hjejle, EY and Sweco. The seller was advised by Accura and PwC.
