Saaristolaivastonkatu, Helsinki

Like-new three-room apartment in a good building on Saaristolaivaston Street by the sea, right near the HSL ferry pier. Direct route to Kauppatori / near Aleksanterinkatu. Available from 1.9. APARTMENT This is a cozy three-room apartment with two bedrooms, offering a clear and slightly unconventional floor plan. Both bedrooms are of comfortable size, located at the ends of the apartment, separated from each other, and have plenty of closet space. The apartment has a ceiling height of about 3 meters. Many windows and light surfaces create an airy feel at home. The apartment has no wall neighbors as it adjoins quiet stairwells. The apartment has water-circulating underfloor heating throughout, without radiators that limit interior decoration. Apartment-specific cooling allows for a pleasant temperature even in summer heat. All windows and balcony doors have white Venetian blinds. The kitchen is generously sized and mainly features integrated appliances, such as an induction stove, a microwave, and a dishwasher. The wide composite sink embedded in the counter is equipped with a handy draining bowl, and there is ample space for sorting underneath. The kitchen has LED light strips that provide indirect working light, and the spacious pull-out cabinets have slow-close mechanisms. The bathroom gets natural light from a high, openable window. The shower area is in its own recess, which can be closed with a glass door, allowing the rest of the floor to stay dry. There is a space for a washing tower in a recess, with free storage space above since there is no separate air-handling unit. Additionally, there is a fixed laundry cabinet, a cast marble sink, a light mirror, and spacious pull-out drawers with soft closures. There is room in the corner for, for example, a changing table if needed. The floor heating is connected to the building's district heating. Adjoining the living room and kitchen is a fully glazed balcony framed with iron bars, featuring a soft rubber-bottomed balcony mat and an electrical outlet. The apartment floors are matt lacquered Karelia oak plank parquet. A smoke detector connected to the building's electricity provides safety. The rent includes a Dna 10M fiber optic connection, which can be upgraded. HOUSING COMPANY The home is located on the 5th floor of an elevator building, offering open views over a pleasant, well-maintained yard. The car-free inner yard, for example, has a sheltered and safe playground for children. The apartment comes with a high and unusually large (approx. 3 m2) warm personal storage space. The building has plenty of other storage spaces, such as bicycle, outdoor, and stroller storage rooms, and even a separate tire storage for motorists. There is also a building laundry room and a separate drying room. There are possibilities to book common areas, e.g., large modern club rooms with presentation technology and workshop spaces for maintenance and small DIY projects. You can also book a free workout at the gym (1h/daily). In addition, the housing company has wonderful sauna, sun terrace, and club facilities on the 6th floor. + Direct year-round HSL ferry connection to Meritullintori / Kauppatori right in front of the building. + The Crown Bridges take you to the City Center (University of Helsinki) and Pasila.
