Perustie, Helsinki

FIRST SHOWING: Sun 1.11. at 5 PM. The housing company rents a spacious 62 m² courtyard two-room apartment from a prestigious building completed in 1938 on the peaceful Perustie in Old Munkkiniemi. The apartment is on the 1st floor of the building, however, higher than the courtyard level. The kitchen is separate, so the living room remains peaceful. The rooms are spacious and easy to furnish, and in addition to the bathroom, the apartment has a separate toilet, which facilitates daily life even in a two-person household. The two-room apartment is well-suited for a couple or a person living alone who needs space also for remote work. The hall can also be used as a separate sleeping alcove if needed. The windows open to the quiet courtyard and the adjacent Lokkalanlehto park, so the traffic noise stays on the other side of the building. There is plenty of storage space: the apartment includes both a basement and attic storage. The windows face southwest, so the apartment is bright during the day. AREA SERVICES The local store is a couple of hundred meters away, and the numerous cafes, restaurants, pharmacies, and shops on Munkkiniemen puistotie are just a few minutes' walk away. The library, schools, and kindergartens are nearby. It is less than a kilometer to the Munkkivuori shopping center and Kalastajatorppa beach. A large park begins right behind the yard, and the seaside walking routes are a short walk away.
