Chris Stewart Group sells Greenside

Chris Stewart Group (CSG) has confirmed that the award-winning Greenside office building in the burgeoning east end of Edinburgh’s city centre, has been acquired by Leading Cities Invest (LCI), a real estate investment fund managed by Frankfurt-based KanAm Grund Group.

The five storey office building, covering 38,000sq ft, was purchased by CSG in 2016, with funding support from the Government-backed SPRUCE initiative, after it had lain empty for a number of years.

The Scottish-based property investor and developer undertook an extensive refurbishment of Greenside to maximise its aspect and appeal to the city’s technology businesses and the building, completed in autumn 2017, is currently 85 per cent let, with only 5,000 sq ft remaining.



Greenside is the first property acquired by LCI in Scotland, and follows investments in Germany, Belgium, France and the UK. Both parties have agreed to keep the sales price confidential.

This latest deal by the Chris Stewart Group team follows the sale of 20 West Register Street. The 60,000 sq ft office building which is being built as part of CSG’s Edinburgh city centre regeneration project, The Registers, has been acquired by the international real estate firm, Hines, in a forward purchase arrangement, for its European Core Fund.
