Construction of Estonia's Most Coastal Homes Has Begun

Riviera Viimsi home design and construction planning have been refined to the last detail, and today, construction of buildings has begun along the beautiful Haabneeme sandy beach. By the end of 2024, Endover will build four boutique apartment buildings that will bring a touch of the endless seaside relaxation of French and Italian coastal resorts and a slow-living lifestyle to Estonia's coastline.

Historically, the riviera was a small seaside town running along the coast where people came to rest body and soul, but now the riviera can become a home for those who value nature, peace, and personal space.

Homes refined to the finest detail

Riviera Viimsi residential buildings are located in a peaceful residential area, directly next to a clean sandy beach and the sea. This is Estonia's closest development to the shore, where every small detail invites you to enjoy a slow-living lifestyle. "Riviera homes are inspired by the beauty of the beach landscape and nature. Seaside homes are located in the midst of nature: the sea on one side, a wooded grove on the other. These are homes where breathtaking sea views inspire you to notice the most beautiful parts of life," said Riviera Viimsi Creative Director Maarja-Linda Taur.

Riviera Viimsi Chief Designer Juhan Kangilaski said that the project paid special attention to creating user-centered spatial solutions. "Both the developer and designer worked closely together to achieve a common goal, which was to offer clients the best and most comfortable living environment. Over the past six months, we have been refining the spatial layouts of the homes so that every square meter of each apartment is thought through to the finest detail."

Riviera's 4-story boutique buildings feature spacious 2-5-room apartments ranging from 58–139 square meters, with penthouse apartments spanning two floors. The homes have impressive floor-to-ceiling corner windows and large glass-railed balconies, which allow you to take maximum advantage of the surrounding environment. Changing weather, seasons, and the sea surprise you every day with new views that look like beautiful artworks alternating to the rhythm of nature through the expansive windows.

The homes include balconies and terraces up to 82 m2 in size. The truly spacious two-story penthouse apartments include a roof terrace of up to 120 m2, from which you can enjoy daily views of the coastal landscape and sea on Tallinn Bay, Haabneeme beach, and the well-maintained wooded grove.

Balconies and terraces are a pleasant extension for the apartments, with the sea as a backdrop and an endless sandy beach as well as a well-maintained Haabneeme wooded grove. Spacious balconies and terraces offer the opportunity to spend long evenings with family and friends, surrounded by breathtaking views in the midst of one of Estonia's most beautiful beaches.

Penthouse apartments include saunas and the option to build a fireplace to create an even more comfortable and cozy home atmosphere, especially during autumn and winter. The terraces of penthouse apartments have been prepared for the installation of a hot tub, but why not place an outdoor cinema on the roof terrace instead?

According to Riviera Viimsi Sales Manager Piret Rannala, Riviera attracts home buyers primarily with its beautiful natural location and beautiful modern architecture. "For buyers, home comfort is important: parking lots and elevators are located under the building, the apartments include balconies and terraces, and spacious rooms. So far, three-room family apartments have proven to be the most popular, precisely because of the spacious bedrooms and living rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows."

Before construction began, a quarter of Riviera Viimsi seaside homes had already found new owners.

An energy-efficient oasis

Modern Riviera Viimsi homes are characterized by high quality and contemporary solutions. According to Riviera Viimsi Construction Director Henri Ärmus, one of the strengths of the Riviera project is its efficient heating system. "A key advantage of Riviera homes is geothermal heating, which is installed in boreholes and promises to significantly reduce future residents' home expenses."

According to architect and What If OÜ partner Juhan Kangilaski, energy efficiency was a central theme during the design phase. "It's not just a buzzword, but a vitally important component in all modern construction projects. To achieve the lowest possible fixed costs for residents, we engaged leading industry specialists. The transition from gas heating to geothermal heating in an area originally planned for gas heating is an important step in reducing fossil fuel consumption and CO2 footprint over the entire lifecycle of the buildings."

Riviera Viimsi apartments have radiant floor heating and energy-efficient heat recovery ventilation. The buildings have high-quality triple-glazed windows. Summer heat is balanced by fresh sea air on the terraces and, of course, the refreshing waves just a few steps from the front door, and selected apartments also have a cooling system.

All four buildings have underground parking, and all parking spaces have been designed with the capacity for electric car charger installation. Each building has an elevator for convenient access from the parking floor to your apartment. Guest parking is also available in the outdoor lot.

A home that is the face of nature

The design of homes located on the edge of the shoreline draws inspiration from the authentic beauty of Estonia's coastal landscape and sea. Minimalist yet detailed interior design has been created to harmonize with nature, and the quality interior finishings included in the price feature airy, bright, and naturally toned solutions that bring seaside breathing and lightness to the homes. Thanks to large window surfaces, corner windows, and spacious glass-railed balconies and terraces, Riviera homes are delightfully filled with light.

Riviera homes use nature's color palette, which brings the seaside ambience directly from the beach to your home: in one package you'll find beautiful travertine tiles with sand patterns shimmering through them, in another design solution you'll find marble with a green tone inspired by seaweed washed up on the beach. The flow of waves continues on the floors, where you can choose oak parquet in either white or fashionably light gray tones. Bedroom floors are adorned with soft carpeting, which invites you to start and end your day surrounded by the softness of the beach. High-quality Hansgrohe bathroom fixtures have been selected for the bathrooms.

The external appearance of the buildings is designed in a modern style: using both dark and light facade panels and large glass surfaces. "The building facades are designed as ventilated facades, which ensures that the facades remain both functional and aesthetically beautiful over time," added Ärmus.

Life on the seaside

Riviera homes are located in the midst of nature: the sea on one side, a green wooded grove on the other. According to Kangilaski, one of Riviera Viimsi's unique characteristics is its landscape environment: "The territory sloping down from a gentle slope to the sea offers a unique opportunity to create a diverse living environment with varied views, offering residents spaces with different character, quality landscaping, and rest areas for family members of all ages."

Between the residential buildings, a highly landscaped park area will be built. For the entire area, in cooperation with Kino landscape architects, a unique spatial concept has been designed that is based on the opportunities of the Haabneeme coastal landscape and the character of the place.

The Haabneeme beach promenade running from Riviera homes offers diverse leisure activities for both those who enjoy peace and quiet and those who enjoy active beach life. Enjoy a morning run along the sandy beach with a refreshing swim, play beach volleyball and tennis with friends, or paddle along water that glimmers gold in the sunset on a SUP board.

From the promenade, just 180 meters away from Riviera homes, you'll find one of Estonia's most respected beach restaurants OKO, which offers diverse culinary experiences year-round.

Viimsi Riviera homes offer peace and seclusion, but are located less than one kilometer from Viimsi center and Tallinn city limits. The nearest bus stop is 200 meters away, and you can reach Tallinn city center via Reidi Road in approximately 20 minutes during rush hour and just 15 minutes at other times.

Riviera Viimsi homes combine the miraculous nature of Estonia's coastal landscape with a slow living lifestyle that places enjoyment first. These are homes where you truly have time to live.
