One of the largest Turkish contractor conglomerates, ENKA Construction, announced Thursday that its U.K. subsidiary has purchased a major commercial property in London for approximately £186 million ($248.24 million).

According to a disclosure filed with the Public Disclosure Platform (KAP), the acquisition covers the Park House office building, which spans roughly 18,000 square meters. The property is located in a prime area of the British capital and is currently leased to several high-profile tenants, including international consultancy and technology firms, it said.

After the announcement, ENKA shares on Borsa Istanbul rose by more than 1% before giving up their gains later in the session.

Diversifying revenue through real estate investment

Recognized for its distinct curvilinear architecture, the Park House building on London’s Oxford Street comprises 39 luxury apartments, seven floors of high-spec office space, and nine double-height retail units.

ENKA said the newly acquired building is expected to contribute to its expanding real estate leasing operations abroad.

The company already owns and manages several commercial properties across Europe and Russia, in addition to its core activities in construction, energy, and engineering.
