luxury real estate for sale Tampere, Finland
Property with pool and garden Tampere (Finland)
Dazzlingly gorgeous and rare city mansion – The Little Palace! Built in 1898, built in 1898 and completely renovated and restored between 2004–2005 and 2019–2020, lovingly cared for and maintained and equipped with modern building technology, this beautiful Little Palace, located in a quiet, but at the same time central to the city's services, is an object that rarely is for sale! The Little Palace is in the center of Tampere at the corner of Hämeenpuisto and Puuvillatehtaankatu. Finlayson's historic factory area, which is currently in office and business use, is located approx. 400 m away. This architecturally and culturally-historically valuable building is perfectly suited for residential use, but also works brilliantly as a high-quality commercial space for parties and gatherings. Originally, the building was completely used for residential purposes, e.g. resided by Finlayson's property manager, but has also served as an office between 1982 and 2001. After extensive renovations between 2004 and 2006, the middle and basement floors of the building have been used for festivities and other events. The top floor has mainly been in private use and lately as an art and antique exhibition space. The three different floors of the facade of this historic neo-renaissance building are the result of the detailed renovation work carried out in 2019-2020, which is literally a breathtaking sight in the city center. Especially when the dusk of the evening descends, when well-designed outdoor lighting brings wonderfully out even the smallest details. The property is surrounded by a handmade wrought iron fence to ensure privacy, and in the summer, beautiful rose plantings and perennials grow in the yard. The courtyard is crowned by a magnificent fountain, next to which several couples who celebrated their weddings in the palace have had their official wedding pictures taken. In the courtyard there is also a three-car garage/storage building completed in 2005. The interior, which exudes luxury and dignity, makes any visitor smile when looking at all the beauty that can be found in the building; as a representative space, the solemn high main hall of the excellently functioning middle floor and glowing brilliance of the crystal chandeliers, the grand piano hall representing the atmosphere of a medieval knight's castle and its coffered ceiling panels, as well as wooden and decorated door frames, curtains with rods designed by the architect and wonderful wallpapers that exude the spirit of the building's era. The visitor's attention is also captured by the palatial balconies with columns, wrought-iron staircase railings with delictae patterns, ceiling paintings and an authentic fresco in the stairwell, magnificent fireplaces, the unique identity, and style of each room on the timeless stylish top floor, as well as the kitchen and bathroom facilities that brilliantly serve the family's everyday life. Also not to be overlooked is the astonishingly wonderful art mosaic work by Tuula Lehtinen in the swimming pool section of the basement floor and the English-style billiard room, which exudes the building's original 19th-century atmosphere, with its wonderful, vaulted ceilings and original fireplaces and wall paneling. If this dazzling property attracts you to get to know it more closely, please contact the broker for additional information and to arrange for a private viewing. Building architect: Fredrik Thesleff Designer of the original interior panels: Louis Sparre. The building's first resident: Christian Bruun

House with garden Eura (Finland)
Exceptionally beautiful manor-like building on the lake shore now for sale! 10 rooms, kitchen, serving, 2 hallways, 2 bathrooms, 3 wc, sauna, sauna lounge, beachfront sauna, side building. When reaching the courtyard of Villa Ahlström, the visitor feels as if they are moving into an old movie, where one of Finland's most beautiful buildings from the beginning of the 20th century is the scene of the events. This atmosphere continues from the garden-like courtyard into the building, whose spaces, one after the other, make visitors stop and be enchanted by the views of the garden and the lake, the charming details of the rooms and at the same time the coziness and functionality of the spaces designed for one family. Villa Ahlström was built in 1911 as a home for the family of Bertel Ahlström, the director of Kauttuan Ruukki at the time, including the servants' quarters. The unique valuable building is part of the still living mill milieu - a stone's throw away from the building is, for example, hotel and restaurant Kauttuan Ruukinkartano with services. The area is impressive, and it enchants its visitors with its old beauty, environment, and wealth of activities, with Villa Ahlström being the crown jewel of the area. The main building was designed by architect Jarl Eklund. The style combines features of late Art Nouveau and classicism, forming a harmonious entity with fine details. The surrounding park with its plants emphasizes the beautiful lake view in its current form. Well-maintained parks and gardens are still typical of this mill milieu, where Alvar Aalto's handprint is also strongly visible in the area's architecture, tourist attractions and layout. The building's courtyard is beautiful, but the eye inevitably drifts to the shore of Lake Pyhäjärvi in Säkylä, where the visitor encounters a different world next to the log and turf-roofed sauna and the large pier and sandy beach. The atmospheric log sauna of the 1940s, designed by an architect, which can accommodate several sauna guests, and the lake with clear water and fish, provide the opportunity for leisurely relaxation. Villa Ahlström has been elegantly renovated over time, preserving its special features. In the 2000s, the building was extensively renovated on the outside; the roof, facades and hidden drains have all been renewed. The building has been in use the whole time, serving either as a residence or as a business. Inside, the interior materials, plumbing, and the fixed fittings of the premises will most likely require updates depending of a new owner and the future purpose of use. If you feel that you would like to be a part of the story of this historical manor milieu in the future, then please be in touch! Only private showings are organized for this listing, so please contact the agent for more information and to arrange a showing.
