An area enjoying a new revival, Martinlaakso offers an excellent environment for those who want to live in a modern rental home but appreciate the excellent services and good connections offered by a well-established residential area. The grounds of Raiviosuonmäki 7 and 9 form a park-like complex with the view extending to the neighbouring park. The two-section building has 132 rental homes, mostly studios and one-bedroom homes, but there are also apartments with three bedrooms and a kitchenette at the end of the building. The apartments are easy to furnish and accessible despite being very compact.

Residential comfort in this new building is also further increased by highly functional communal areas: laundry room, drying room, clubroom and a sauna section with four saunas and a terrace for cooling down are shared with the residents of Raiviosuonmäki 9. The apartment-specific storage units and outdoor equipment storage rooms can be found in the basement. The space allocated for bicycle storage is larger than usual. Car parking spaces are located on the northern side of the grounds.

Built with plenty of space between buildings, Martinlaakso is a district undergoing renewal and famous for its leafy areas for outdoor recreation as well as good transport links. The train station is within walking distance, and the services of Martinlaakso shopping centre can be found next door to the station. Library, health station and Kela office are also found nearby. In this child-friendly area there are several day care centres and schools, including primary and lower secondary as well as a general upper secondary and the Mercuria Business School. Those into physical activity and spending time outdoors will wind a diversity of routes as well as a lit cross-country skiing track. A friend of culture, in turn, heads to the culture house Martinus.
