About Us
WAN S.A. is a Warsaw real estate development company, operating dynamically for 29 years in the real estate industry, focusing on four segments: residential, office and retail, warehouse and leisure.
The completed projects were primarily intended for sale. However, in the course of many years of its activity, the company has created a parallel portfolio of commercial and residential properties for lease located in Warsaw, Gdańsk, Płock, Cracow, Łódź and the Masurian Lakeland.
In 2022, the third stage of the Osiedle na Zdrowiu investment in Łódź was completed. At the same time, the next stage of the investment began – Osiedle na Zdrowiu IV, and the construction of the second stage of a investment in Warsaw on the border of Bielany and Żoliborz – Apartamenty Marymoncka II.

Construction of new office projects – Babka Tower II stage I – and warehouse projects located in Kutno, Załuski, Adamowice, Wola Pękoszewska and Chrzczonowice have also been started.

Special attention to the selection of attractive locations, original projects following current trends and requirements as well as application of the latest technologies are the basic criteria that make the company’s investments successful.
Among the investments completed up to now, particular attention should be paid to:
- the apartment building in Warsaw at Bielawska street – located on the very edge of the Mokotów escarpment, completed in 1999, one of the first buildings of this type in the capital (security system, with underground garages and spacious penthouses on top floors);
- the apartment and office building Babka Tower – for many years the highest residential building in Poland, the headquarters of WAN SA;
- the complex of office buildings at Postępu 3 street in Warsaw – its lease for a period of 10 years to Polkomtel S.A., the operator of the Plus GSM mobile network, was the largest transaction in the office space lease in Poland in 2004.
- Luxury apartment building – Rezydencja przy Skoczni – located next to the former ski jump on the Mokotów escarpment in Warsaw.
- Apartamenty Stary Żoliborz – The apartment building is located in the Warsaw district of Żoliborz, in the surroundings of traditional pre-war buildings characteristic for this part of the city. Investment is honoured with the Brukalskis Award for the ‘Best Architecture of Żoliborz in 2006-2010’.
- Apartamenty Marymoncka cosy building in Warsaw, surrounded by greenery, with 59 apartments and retail premises.
Achieving the current market position was possible because of harmonious cooperation with recognised design offices, such as JEMS Architekci (Warsaw Metropolitan building, headquarters of Gazeta Wyborcza), Kulczyński Architekt (Olympic Center), financing institutions (mBank, PKO Bank Polski, Alior Bank , BGK, DNB Nord, Raiffeisen) as well as partnership cooperation in two investments together with the company Echo Investment listed on the Warsaw Stock Exchange.
In 2007, 25% of the company’s shares were acquired by a fund managed by Morgan Stanley Real Estate, a group belonging to Morgan Stanley, one of the largest financial and investment institutions in the real estate sector in the world. In December 2021, Polish shareholders bought back 25% of the company’s shares.
