Barings Acquires 2,230 sq m Prime Parisian Residential Asset

Barings, one of the world’s largest diversified real estate investment managers, has acquired 35 Avenue de Suffren, a fully-let Haussmannian residential block in the heart of Paris’ prestigious 7ᵉ arrondissement, on behalf of a European core real estate strategy.

The 2,230 sqm property comprises of 18 apartments and two retail units. Recent capital expenditure, including façade, roof, and a connection to the urban heating network, has ensured the building is maintained to an excellent standard. The property’s classic architecture, balconies, private garden, and concierge lodge further enhance its appeal.

Located in one of Paris’ most desirable neighbourhoods, the property has immediate access to the Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars. The district is known for its historic architecture, diplomatic institutions, cultural attractions, and proximity to the city’s most iconic landmarks.

The district’s vacancy rate is just 2.3%, with new construction permits down 38% over three years, highlighting supply constraints and long-term value.

The living sector remains one of Barings’ preferred asset classes in European real estate, with a total of 2,500 units transacted so far this year across the continent on behalf of a mix of core, core-plus and value-add strategies.

Barings was advised by Oudot (notary), LPA Law (legal and tax), Etyo (Technical), Carb0n (ESG) and ANTEA (environmental). The seller was advised by Office Notarial de La Plaine Saint-Denis (notary) and LPA Law (legal).

The transaction was completed by Bridge Real Estate as part of a co-exclusive sale instruction with Newmark.

Both parties agreed not to disclose financial information.

Guillaume Bieganski, Managing Director and Country Head France at Barings, said: “35 Avenue de Suffren with its proximity to the Eiffel Tower exemplifies the resilience of prime Parisian real estate. With its exceptional location, strong occupancy, and recent upgrades, the property aligns perfectly with our strategy to deliver stable returns and sustainable value for our investors. Prime real estate in the heart of the French capital remains an area of keen interest to us, whether that is for residential or commercial properties, and we are eager to explore opportunities on behalf of a range of investment strategies. It is the second acquisition completed within one month after the acquisition of the light industrial asset by Barings Real Estate across its equity platform in France, with its team based in Paris having been active across I&L, living and prime retail assets”

Gunther Deutsch, Managing Director, Head of Real Estate Transactions Europe and Country Head Germany at Barings, said: “This acquisition marks our 10th living acquisition in 2025. So far we have invested a total of €580m into residential assets mainly into new residential developments be it BTR and BTS across our 9 jurisdictions. Residential will make up the most of our investment volume in 2025 and we are keen to further expand our residential exposure across our capital sources, be it from core to value add. The living sector – particularly build to rent, build to sell and purpose-built student accommodation – benefits from structural advantages in many European cities and, having deployed significant capital into the sector in 2025, fully expect to continue to do so throughout 2026.”
