The house is part of the history of the Santamäki Manor and was once used as a dairy. The atmosphere is created by the approximately 310 cm room height, exposed original ceilings, and wooden floors. The house has been significantly renovated over the years.

The rental apartment on the west end has its own electricity connection, and the apartment on the east end has its own. The tenant makes their own electricity agreement. The heating method is electric radiators and wood heating. The apartment has two reserve fireplaces. The tenant must ensure that the apartment is properly heated all year round and must not allow the building to cool down. Location and transport links The property is located in a quiet rural environment in Launonen, Loppi. It is about a 45-minute drive to Helsinki. The nearest bus stop is about 300 m away, and there are plenty of bus services to Riihimäki daily. Riihimäki has good train connections to Helsinki and elsewhere in Finland.

The more extensive services of Loppi and Riihimäki are about 10 km away. Who is the apartment suitable for? We are looking for a long-term and reliable tenant. It is a more than a hundred-year-old detached house, so we appreciate an applicant with experience in living in an old house and an interest in understanding its special features. We hope the tenant is willing to take care of ordinary detached house tasks, such as using fireplaces, keeping the yard clean, mowing the lawn, and snow removal. Necessary tools are available from the house. The owners regularly use the other half of the house on weekends, holidays, and occasionally for remote work, but do not live on the property permanently. Therefore, we appreciate an independent tenant who can take care of the basic aspects of living on their own and enjoys the peace of the countryside. We have recently acquired ownership of the property and are also learning the maintenance of the house ourselves. Please tell a little about yourself in your contact, your living situation, and why you would be a good tenant for this property. Rent 740 €/month, water and firewood according to consumption. Pets are basically allowed, but they are agreed upon separately. No smoking. The security deposit and start date of the lease are agreed separately.
