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

A rare quality island complex in the middle of the most beautiful Archipelago Sea that was used by the heads of state of Finland is now for sale! In the middle of a clean, calm, and captivating through all four-seasons’ Archipelago Sea, with the open sea on the horizon, but at the same time a relatively short distance from the mainland, lies the legendary Juusluoto with its surrounding islands, which was once the preferred fishing destination used by late President Kekkonen, who was in power for the longest time in Finland. Here he brought heads of state from different countries to fish and enjoy the beautiful views of the dazzlingly beautiful and pristine archipelago; rocks, archipelago pine, junipers, as well as the peace that only nature's own sounds accompany. Such large island properties, with a land area of more than 25 hectares and 78 hectares of own private water area, are only extremely rarely available for sale in Finland these days. In addition to the islands, the complex includes a property on the mainland, where a leisure building completed in 2022 is located, as well as a pier for a larger boat. The destination is excellent for those who value privacy, but also for those for whom the unique nature experience offered by the surrounding Archipelago Sea is desirable. The island complex's main island, where almost all the buildings are located, has a very easy-to-walk terrain, almost natural. Looking at the island's structures, you feel as if you have traveled back in time a few decades - without passageways or large terraces that disturb the naturalness. The authenticity of the island's construction period in the 60s is something you don't often see these days. The buildings have been very well taken care of, and the island's technical solutions have been constantly developed, e.g. a system that produces drinking water from seawater using a reverse osmosis system was introduced in 2017. The island can currently accommodate approx. 20 guests. There are a few buildings and structures on the island, all serving on the one hand the privacy and peace of the guests, and on the other hand enabling a cozy environment in the facilities designed for this, next to the dazzling scenery. The main building has equipment and machinery at the level of a commercial kitchen and have during many years produced gourmet food services. After arriving on the island, all you can do is relax and enjoy yourself, as you can find everything you need with excellent services. If this exceptional archipelago complex piqued your interest, please get in touch to inquire about additional information and to book a private viewing.
