This beauty of a house, built in 1913, located on a quiet, westfacing and beautiful seafront and garden plot, is something that one could only imagine would exist and come up for sale one day. There is no other place like it. And the opportunity to get to know a place like this doesn't come until maybe once in tens of years.
Built right by the sea, the distance of the main building designed by Alexander Nyström in full brick from the sea, approx. 15-20 m, is very exceptional. When you look out of the windows of the living room, dining room and master bedroom, you get the feeling that you are almost on the sea. During its history, the building has functioned as a home for local business leaders but has also served tourists who have been able to enjoy the place's B&B accomodation. Since then, the building has been completely renovated and converted to residential use again. The building has risen to its new heyday with the renewal of the facade, windows, and roof, as well as with the comprehensive renovation of the house inside, which respects the old building methods. Inside the house, every surface from floor to ceiling has been completely renovated, the space with its furniture and appliances, and technology for energy-efficient and carefree living. And all this has been implemented with aesthetic interior design, high quality, and with attention to every detail.
In the 1970s, a side building was built in connection with the main building in accordance with the wishes of the owners of the building. Here was an exceptionally large swimming pool with sauna facilities, next to large windows and, in accordance with the style of the period, with a dance floor, an open fireplace and bar facilities. In the 1980s and 90s, additional premises were built in the side building. Currently, the swimming pool space is covered and the space functions as a gym, but still having the same facilities for relaxation after sports. As an alternative to relaxing in these facilities, you can retreat to enjoy the beauty of the evening sun and the warmth of the wooden sauna in the idyllic beach sauna built in the 1930s with its large terraces and new piers.
In addition to these buildings, there are plenty of structures and details that serve the functionality of the place on the one hand and for enjoying relaxed free time on the other hand. From the new dog enclosure to the spacious outdoor storage facilities, from the wonderful sandy beach to the putt and chip green, from the sheltered south quay to the steamboat pier which enjoys water depths of 4 meters and from the old apple trees that produce a good harvest to the old oaks, maples and pines, perhaps the most beautiful of them in a wonderful landscaped spot on the southwest corner of the farm, on top of a high cliff . Not forgetting the newly renovated two-room apartment at the other end of the side building.
All this beauty with wonderful details is located about half an hour's drive from Turku and less than a couple of hours from the capital region. If, you are interested in getting to know the place in more detail, please contact the agent for more information and to arrange for a viewing.
