SATO, one of Finland’s largest rental housing providers, is developing non-subsidised rental homes in the centre of Hyrylä, in the Rykmentinpuisto area of Tuusula. Construction will begin in May–June 2022 and the homes will be move-in ready in March 2024.

SATO and builders Jatke Uusimaa Oy have signed a contract on 8th April 2022 concerning the site at Pataljoonantie 3–5 in the Rykmentinpuisto area of Tuusula where two five-storey apartment buildings with a total of 92 new rental homes are set to rise.

The buildings will be faced in light-coloured brick cladding. All homes in the buildings will have balconies, Juliet balconies in the lower-floor homes facing the street.

“We work together with cities and municipalities in developing residential areas. Several developers are working on the Rykmentinpuisto area of Tuusula, which will have many different types of housing. SATO is developing non-subsidised rental homes in the area. There will be homes of varying sizes on the property, from studio efficiencies to larger family homes,” says Arto Aalto, Vice President, Investments at SATO.

“The Pataljoonantie site will be SATO’s first residential investment in Tuusula in more than 15 years,” Aalto adds.

Rental home design guided by sustainable choices

The design of the building caters for energy efficiency and sustainable building solutions that will last for decades to come. The buildings will be rated energy class A. They will be equipped with district heating, because they are located in a groundwater area where geothermal wells cannot be drilled. The buildings will also feature solar panels and an intake air cooling system.

There will be 61 covered parking spaces in the property’s own yard along with ten garages. All parking spaces will be equipped with electric car charging facilities. The design of the property also caters for the future possibility of acquiring a shared car for the residents to use.

The buildings will have sauna and club facilities and laundry and drying rooms for the common use of all residents along with individual storage units for each apartment.

Adaptability and flexibility have been taken into account in the design of the studio homes in the buildings. Some of the load-bearing concrete walls of the studios have been replaced with light walls between the units, while other load-bearing walls have the option for future openings. This way, they can be combined with the apartments next door if going forward, demand arises for larger apartments.
