The apartment for sale is special in many ways in the Helsinki housing market.
Historically An apartment from Ohrana’s house in Helsinki’s Ullanlinna has come up for sale, which is in many ways exceptional in the capital region’s housing market.
For sale is a penthouse resembling a detached house. The apartment includes a gigantic terrace of one hundred square meters. The living area is slightly more, 130 square meters.
The views from the terrace and the wall-sized windows open over the roofs of Helsinki to the towers of St. John’s Church.
For value apartments specialized real estate agent Manna Satuli Snellman from Sotheby’s International Realty considers the apartment a special case. According to him, there are very few apartments in the center of Helsinki with such a large terrace.
The asking price of the apartment is almost 3.3 million euros. The price per square meter of over 25,000 euros probably makes the property one of the most expensive in the history of Helsinki. In Ullanlinna, the average price per square meter of apartments hovers around 9,000 euros, and in the whole of Helsinki, just under 6,000 euros.
HS reported in the summer about the apartments built in an old nursing home in Munkkiniemi, the asking prices of which rose to record amounts of euros, up to 15,000 euros per square meter.

The small consideration is explained by the income received by the housing association from the rents of the business premises it owns. The building’s cornerstone is, for example, the restaurant Ventuno, whose founding members include, among others Tomi Björck.
According to Satul, the company also has an automatic parking system that is special.
“The car is driven into the hall, where the automation rolls it around and takes it to its place. When the car is needed again, it will be ordered and returned. That’s really rare in Helsinki.”
Barley the house represents the Neo-Renaissance in style. The building, completed in 1889, was designed by a Swedish architect Axel Högberg. The Russian state bought the house in 1904, when the tsar’s secret police settled in it.
Arvoasunto, which is now for sale, is located in the new part of the building, which was built in connection with the renovation in 2019. The building is currently known as Asunto-asakehtiö Grand Residence 21.
The property made headlines in August last year. HS reported at the time that the city of Helsinki had intervened in unauthorized accommodation activities in the building.
