Charming 1890s Residence In Helsinki Design District

1890s Charm on Ullanlinnankatu, in the Prestigious Design District

In the heart of Kaartinkaupunki, in the famous pink building designed by Tove Jansson’s family, lies this delightful second-floor apartment. The home features classically beautiful, spacious rooms and stunning city views reaching all the way to the towers of St. John’s Church.

The building has a fascinating construction history, having been built in several stages across different eras. In 1890, it originally had only three floors, while the 4th and 5th floors were added later in 1928. The property exudes historic charm and enjoys an exceptional location right next to the Design Museum. You can read more about the building’s history here: [hidden information]

The apartment’s high ceilings and large windows allow abundant natural light to pour in, creating a bright and airy atmosphere. It is situated on the second floor in a stairwell equipped with an elevator.

The kitchen accommodates a large dining area and offers extensive cabinet space. Both bedrooms are impressively spacious and located separately from one another. One of the bedrooms has its own private entrance to the courtyard stairwell. The elegant bathroom, renovated in 2017, features two showers and two washbasins.

Kaartinkaupunki is a highly sought-after residential area, offering excellent services and transport connections. Nearby you will find top restaurants, boutique shops, essential services, cultural venues, and the seafront is just a short walk away.
