A unique, picturesque home built in this millennium next to the old church in Porvoo is now for sale!

The journey to this charming house on the western slope goes through the cobbled roads of Porvoo’s old town, as the pace slows down thanks to the speed limit already en route. The final climb up the hill, past the old, perhaps already slightly leaning, red clay and yellow farmhouses slows down the pace even more, until the journey stops. At the same time, you almost feel that time has stopped. The national poet Runeberg’s house is in front and the house that is now for sale is next door. On the other side of the hill where the big man Runeberg liked to sit and write his works.

Here, in the cultural landscape that was built in the 18th and 19th centuries and next to the built cultural surroundings that is considered to be the most nationally significant, in 2006 a house was allowed to be built with respect for the old landscape and the environment, but with today’s technology and structures, but from the looks of it, the house could be thought to be a significantly older building. The view from this house down towards the city is the old stone church and old buildings which house many attractive and high-class specialty shops, cafes, and restaurants. These views, not forgetting Porvoo river with its ramparts at the bottom of the valley, make its spectators literally stop in their tracks with delight.

When you have the patience to break away from the charms of your surroundings for a moment and enter this sweet pink house, the time travel to the present happens very gently. The home’s interior and spatial solutions, as well as the French-designed kitchen down to the smallest detail, make visitors feel a strong sense of home. A spacious and bright living room with large fireplaces, a glazed terrace for the morning sun and an open terrace for the evening sun, four bedrooms and jacuzzies both inside the house and outside on the terrace, in this location and with these views, this quality-built house leaves a unique impression.
