Ansaritie 1a

Renovated rental homes in Etelä-Haaga

Love life in leafy neighbourhood

Located on the ‘Golden Edge’ of Etelä-Haaga district in Helsinki, Ansaritie 1a is a building of great value in terms of urban landscape, architecture and cultural history alike. The plot borders on a common green with mature trees and plants as well as a play area for children. This fully modernised building was completed in 1959 and consists of three floors of homes, upper and lower basement, and attic. The two stairwells of the building have a total of 30 apartments ranging in size from studios to four-bedroom family homes. In keeping with the spirit of the time of construction, the apartments feature large strip windows that make the leafy outdoors part of the interiors. Apart from the 29-sqm studios, all apartments have west-facing balconies.

Residents may make use of apartment-specific storage lockers, shared outdoor equipment storage rooms and drying room. The basement of the building has 16 garages equipped with heating poles and charging points.

In the fall of 2023 an independent council of the best specialists of the broad field of sustainable production and consumerism chose this building to be added to the Osta vastuullisesti (Buy sustainably) website. The council appraises the more sustainable lifestyle and options from the standpoint of a relative sustainability.
