Nhood Services Poland, acting on behalf of Ceetrus Polska, has completed the sale of land in Góraszka to Leroy Merlin. The transaction will enable the development of a large-format DIY store that will form part of the multifunctional Góraszka Project and expand the commercial and service offering of the area.
The land purchase agreement was signed on 29 December 2025 between Leroy Merlin Inwestycje and Ceetrus Polska, with Nhood Services Poland acting as broker. Under the agreement, Leroy Merlin will develop a modern, single-storey DIY store providing home, flat and garden solutions. The store will have a built-up area of approximately 12,000 sq m and will be located in the northern part of the Góraszka Project, on a site covering more than 55,000 sq m.
Anna Będkowska, Project Manager at Nhood Services Poland responsible for the Góraszka Project, said that finalising the transaction represents an important step in the development of the scheme and reflects the potential of the location as a multifunctional destination serving local communities.
Marcin Witos, Development Director at Leroy Merlin, said that Góraszka is a strategic location for the company and aligns with its aim to remain close to customers. He noted that the new store will provide access to a wide product range as well as professional advice, workshops and tailored solutions for customers’ home and garden projects.
Leroy Merlin plans to start construction works in the third quarter of 2026. The investment will include a modern retail facility with a sales area, exhibition space and outdoor zones dedicated to garden inspiration. The development will also include unloading areas for suppliers, customer collection zones, full technical infrastructure, internal roads and a car park, integrated with the wider Góraszka Project.
Dominik Krupa, Project Manager at Leroy Merlin, said that the preparation and completion of the transaction required close cooperation with Nhood Services Poland and careful coordination of due diligence, contractual and planning processes. He added that the project is now ready to move into the construction phase.
According to Nhood Services Poland, public consultations carried out for the Góraszka Project highlighted demand from local residents for an expanded retail and service offer, including a DIY and home improvement store. The presence of Leroy Merlin is intended to address this need.
The Góraszka Project is being developed on the site of the former airport in Góraszka, near Warsaw, close to the junction connecting the S17 expressway with the Warsaw Southern Bypass (S2). The main retail and service complex within the project will offer nearly 40,000 sq m of retail space. Together with neighbouring developments, including the Leroy Merlin store and the existing Majaland Warsaw amusement park, the project is intended to create a combined shopping and leisure destination.
The total usable area of the investment, including facilities developed by partners, is expected to reach approximately 65,000 sq m GLA. In addition to retail and service space, the wider complex will include a water park, drive-through restaurants and a petrol station. Construction will be carried out in stages, beginning in 2026 with the development of technical infrastructure, followed by retail, service and partner facilities.
Ceetrus Polska is the main investor in the commercial component of the project. The development is being implemented in line with sustainable development principles. The Góraszka Project received a BREEAM Communities certificate in 2024, and the investor plans to seek BREEAM New Construction certification. The project is also participating in the MUQI certification process, which assesses the quality of mixed-use developments.
