An apartment has come on the market that offers an opportunity to design a personalized home in one of Tallinn's most valued and environmentally cherished neighborhoods. This is a place where a home is not merely walls and a floor, but a part of the city's soul. The apartment is excellent for both a first home and as an investment rental property – Kalamaja has never gone out of style.

KALAMAJA – THE HEART OF TALLINN, WHERE HISTORY AND CREATIVITY MEET

Kalamaja is not simply a neighborhood. It is the heart of Tallinn, whose rhythm is slow, yet profound. Here history, creativity, and greenery intertwine, creating a living environment that is as multilayered as the city's own story. Kalevi Street 40 is part of this narrative – a heritage building that represents Tallinn's traditional house architecture. It is a wooden building constructed in the early 20th century, characterized by a central stone staircase and period-appropriate appearance. This is not simply a building – it is a memory of a time when Tallinn grew and breathed wood.

THE APARTMENT

This high-ceilinged apartment awaits you on the second floor of the building – light-filled, with open airflow and ready to carry your story. The layout includes an entrance hall and a spacious room where the living area and sleeping area are combined, with a kitchenette that remains open and accessible. In addition, there is a separate toilet and a bathroom with a shower cabin. Windows open toward the southeast, south, and southwest directions, which means the apartment is sun-filled throughout the day – light moves here in time with the hours. In spring, nature itself draws a curtain in front of the window – chestnut blossoms and leaves that move in the wind and make their own agreement with the light.

The apartment needs refreshing to meet contemporary expectations. This is an opportunity, not an obstacle – the new owner will be able to design a home exactly according to their taste. If desired, it is possible to restore the apartment's original two-room layout.

PARKING

Parking is available for free on the street or in the courtyard, if space is available – in Kalamaja, where many people move about on foot or by bicycle, this is a quiet privilege for those with a car. The spot is not a guarantee, but often available.

STORAGE

The apartment also comes with the opportunity to use a storage room located in the basement – ideal for seasonal items, a bicycle, or objects that have their own story. The use of the storage room is regulated by a notarial usage agreement. Additionally, on the basement level there is also a small wall cabinet (approx. 50 x 200 x 25 cm) for the apartment's use – just the right place for things that don't need to be in plain sight every day, but still want their own corner.
